LTTTC & Taking Clomid/Metformin ~ July 2008 until 2009

[mrzbaby]

Hi ladies:
Here is our story:
TTC since Aug 08 - PCOS
Fell all on our own without taking clomid Dec 08 ( got confused about which day to take it and had other issues so was going to start the following month).
Our little natural bub grew wings @11wks 5 days found out at Nucal scan.
3 D&C's in 3 weeks finally got AF and now have just finished taking my Clomid (50mg) for the first time.

Thinking it might be mucking around with my CM but I can't buy preseed online as it won't get here in time. Anyone know anything else that will work the same at the chemist???
Don't think I have 'o' yet. I usually get some pain when it happens.
Also any suggestions on OPK?? I am going to look for one today but unsure about the spit on glass ones .

Hoping all our journeys to a BFP is not too much longer.
Sending us all some **** dust**** (they need a smillie for egg dust got ot laugh or else you cry right?)

I have the maybe Baby mini microscope saliva thing- and I don't like it- its not accurate- read a few of the discussions about it- its not all its cracked up to be- but if you need that extra something to give you piece of mind go ahead- I know how hard it is to sit back and just do nothing except take a couple pills now and then so you ovulate one day a month. I do know some people it has worked for but I know more people its hasn't worked for.

My gyno said it causes more stress for you and can actually stop ovulation if you are too stressed- so the microscope as well as taking your BT might hinder your fertility- if I were you I'd spend that money on a massage or something relaxing that makes you and your partner feel less pressured.

Hi girls, have just caught up - congrats Brussels - great news - try not to stress and enjoy it.

Frustrated, I had pains like that the second time I took chlomid - it was hell!! from the ribs down front and back it felt like i was bruised and very tender, then felt like I had wind - but didn't. It goes away - but my specialist didn't know what it was, thought it my be somethign with hyperactive ovaries - apparently this can happen. Either way I was preggies that time and haven't had it too bad every since. Can't really suggest anything for it, as you can't really take anything.

Welcome to Ellianna and MRZ - it is a great site and very supportive.

How is everything goign with you LSK?

Fingers crossed for you tammara - hopefully AF will arrive soon.

Danielle - good luck with IVF.

Beetle - what are the consequences of the folicle or cyst?

I can start testing as of 17th, so fingers crossed. I have no idea of symptoms anymore, but don't think I am this month. If not back to the DR's for me to check out my tubes.

Anyway, all the best to everyone.
