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.

hi MRZ. If the clomid is messing around with your cm,there is a lubricant named conceive plus.its a lubricant that has vitamins and mimics fertile cm.It is only about $15.00 from your chemist.its new and i bought it about 4 weeks ago.Its by a company named Sasmar. Hope this helps.

My update....day 13 on frist clomid cycle since miscarriage nearly 3 yrs ago.Doing the urine ovulation test kits.Had what seemedlike a surge on day 10 then the remaining 3 tests have been Neg.Never have i ovulated before day 14.Have headaches but now have cystitis Still trying to keep calm.

Hi Girls,

I am not sure why but my post took like a week to show up, and then I saw that is was passed 5 times, so sorry! I went back to delete all my mulitple posts... I am new to the forum...I was not sure why it didn't post so over posted...lol.

Well, thanks everyone for the congrats LSK, I got a BFP last week - but my announcement showed up sort of late (the post) so you might have read the forum before it showed up...if you go back a page it should be there.

Welcome to all the new girls! Tam, She will come - she is on her way!!! - Beetle, any news on that cyst?

For the met girls, take it seriously and you will not regret it...The side effects go away or lessen...I am 100% sure that is what did it for me. And my doctor has me continuing it until the end...not just the first three months. He told me that the met caused the ovulation to happen because the clomid did not work on it's own.

For now I am very relaxed. I actually don't feel like anything is going on...I have my first Eco tomorrow...so I guess it will be more real then. Even if this one does not stick, I am just really happy that I know something works! I am trying not to get too excited until I get to the 4th month. I realize that my journey is not over yet.

Thank god for this site.

I'll be back tomorrow with updates from the doctor's office.

I cant believe i missed your post with your fantastic news brussels. CONGRATULATIONS i hope everything goes perfect for you. And i agree when your not stressing about it, it seems to happen.

Lets hope there is more posts like yours in the very near future.

About bringing AF on, what did the Dr suggest for you to do? or did it involve taking medication?

Well, I think he was hoping that the met would bring it on...I was expecting one of the period inducing drugs that they always tell women to take...but strangely, he told me to just take two birth control pills a day for three days straight and my period would come...so a slightly easier method for those not getting prescribed a period inducing drug...I am not a doctor and not sure how this will affect different people, but for me that is what he said...He said not many people know about this system...and I am not sure if this is good for after MC...but that is what he told me.

Had the blood teast yesterday- fingers crossed I ovulated.

Been really worried I am overstimulated- very sore tummy- feels very bloated- more than usual for my period, and bad constipation only relieved by my new friend nulax

Been looking up pregnancy symptoms since its been 2 years since I last had them and apparently every pregnancy if different.- done two urine preg tests but both negative but its way too early to tell but I couldn't help myself- what a waste hey?

having pcos I'll not know when my period should be if I don't get it so I'm not sure when to consider it 'missed' as I can go a couple months without a period easily.

I got told if I get my peiod it means I ovulated.

I was on 100mg of clomid and was naughty with metformin- it ran out and I can't find my refil prescription and haven't had time to see the doc.

Plus I have sinuscitis which I think is contributing to my fatigue but I'm more tired than normal even with that.

Anyone else over stimulated ovaries? do you have to do anything about it? can it damage or ruin your ovaries? How to you know for sure? will it show on the blood test?

This forum has been a fantastic outlet for me as nobody else seems to understand and after the last time I got pregnant I'm not keen on telling veryone right away.
