im just having a bit of a poor me whinge. I am in the fertile window and im fed up with hubby. i feel like it is such an effort for him to do his part, it is probably all in my head but does anyone else get these feelings?
Maybe i am just a nag lol
Hope you all had a relaxing day today
oh and welcome beckie
My FS isnt doing anything which i thought was a bit unusual.He gave me a script with 5 repeats and thats it! I have read on here that most girls gets monitored by their FS so thats why i asked.
I am not temping as im suppose to be chilling out this month and not trying to focus on TTC so much (well thats what ive promised DH). Im thinking FS isnt too stressed as this will be my 6th baby if i get my BFP, i have 4DDs and 1 DD angel so maybe he thinks all will be ok,thats just my guess anyway. But this is my first go at ATTC and the first time ive had any problems getting a BFP so its all new to me and any advice is good advice.
Tammara I know exactly how you feel...sometimes it feels like I am the only one who wants this to happen...deep down I know that isn't true but it can be so frustrating.
Beckie...I am like you my FS gave me the script and just told me to call him if I didn't get AF by day 30. I have wondered whether I should be getting scans and blood tests that others mention.
I am up to day 10 after taking clomid days 2-6. We were told to start BD day 11 for 7 days. I feel like I am getting the flu so really don't feel like it but will go for it anyway. This is Sooooooooooo not how I pictured things happening.
Ok so im on day 5 of my ROUND 2 try of chlomid, started the 2nd lot yesterday.
Ive had some sight effects from the metformin again, really tired and loss of appetite and so lethargic, im so over all these pills i barely feel like myself anymore. But i will plod along in hope that one day this will all benefit.
Beckie before i was on met and chlomid i was on a 36ish day cycle ond o'd anywhere from day 16-20 but last mth i had a day 31 cycle but o'd on day 15, the o pains were much more servere thaht before so i new that i ws def o.
Hi Beckie and tammara,My FS also gave me a script with 5 repeats and sent me off after telling me that i should use the OPK and NOT the microscope that i have.He also said to do 3 cycles only.Apparently if clomid is going to work for you it will within 3 months and said if your not pregnant in those 3 months it wont work.
I too feellike im pressuring DH for "you know what'.Its a horrible selfish feeling.Im upto
day 26 and have been having cramping on and off since since 7DPO.I feel like my period is on its way.Im due on day 29 which is Thursday.Im really upset,paranoid,overthinking things,worried etc etc.After 3 rounds of clomid we are going back to IUI or maybe IVF.My health insurance wait period is over in August so we kind of have a time frame to work within.
Morning Girls - Tammara - I soooo know how you feel - I have absolutely lost it at my husband the last two months of trying - trying not to make it sound like a choir but you just have to do it!!
Wantbaby#2 - I am on cycle 5 of clomid - and my FS has recommended no more than this at this stage - but it is working for me - ie it is making me O' but they just seem to be unco an. My FS has said chlomid is not for long term use, but it is on an individual person basis as to how long the term of use is.
MRZ - I think it sounds very positive - I would definately do another HPT and if it is positive, get a blood test done asap.
Baby dust to all - I am about to start my week or two of BDing!! So I am having my fingers crossed this month!~!
Im so glad im not the only one thinking this. I have been so annoyed at him, he is not the one that has been poked and prodded - all he had to do was give a sample and i had to take it to pathology. Oh well fingers crossed for me and everyone babys will come sooner rather than later
Hi Bec31.I ovulate normally so im not on it for that.My FS just wants me to have an increased chance of conceiving,by releasing extra eggs.He knows it has been a long 5 year battle but i finally had a diagnosis for 'unexplained infertility' in August last year then surgery to correct it.He says im "brand new" inside so the clomid is a boost i guess.
MrZbaby~ Did you have your blood test?Eager to find out your results.Good luck.
Tammara - yep same with my DH - I had to drop it off to pathology too! It is so hard sometimes! It is so structured, I guess we all thought prior that it wasn't supposed to be! I just think irrationally on the clomid. Trying not too but it is hard.
Wantababy#2 - that makes sense then - fingers crossed for you, if you have been all "fixed". I am hoping that if I don't get BFP this month, then my tubes will be sorted out. So either way will get some positive results this month.
Well my few days of happiness and joy havecrashed around me and I got back a BFN this morning. I used a pregnosis clear test and I read on the weekend ( in the instructions) that the test could give false positives from clomid and I rang the company yesterdady and they said if I am on clomid the best chance of finding out if I am UTD is either AF late and then POAS and take that result as real or a blood test.
Rang FS and he said i just have to hang in their till af DUE THEN WE DO THE BLOOD TEST. hE DOESN'T LIKE TESTIING BEFORE af AS SOMETIMES THINGS DON'T go well with the cells and the baby dosen't form and you still get a AF on the day due or one or two days later... - apparently very common.... So no BT and have to wait but to be honest apart from a minor amount of cramping ( ovary area cramping so a little worried )I have no other signs so I think the clomid ,may have made me O but it has also give me a false result.
So sorry i don't have some happy news for everyone....
Em
oh im sorry to hear that MRZBABY.I really am.
My cycle is at day 27 and i have just begun to have sore nipples but still twinging pains in my abdomen and occasional light cramping.2 days to go.Wont test unless i am late or period is light.Im usually a 28/29 day cycle and AF lasts for 6 days. to you all.Lets for some good news next cycle hey girls.Good things take time.
Hey everyone,
I did try to post here once and it never worked, but I'm Jess and I've been taking clomid for one cycle and am about to start on it again today.
I have a question which would probably be answered if I read all the posts, but there is too many! So this cycle just gone I have been really light headed pretty much every day and been really close to fainting on a couple of occasions which has never happened in my life. I am just wondering if anyone else has had these kind of side effects from taking clomid? I'm assuming that's what it's from because I can't think of anything else it could be!
Morning jess - lightheadedness - yes I did get it, but only in the evenings and only the first cycle. Maybe try and take the chlomid at night, as you sleep through the effects. This was suggested to me and it works! So recommend it.
Day 12 for me and I have to go for a US - urgently - haven't had them for the last two months, but am getting sharp pains, different from any other month, so the FS wants to see what is happening!
Oh sorry! It didn't look like my first post had worked, but it did obviously. Sorry sorry!
Becc- I did take it at night! And the weird thing is that I took it for 5 days and the only side effect I had during those 5 days was hot flushes, and the light headed and dizzy stuff didn't even start until about a week after I had finished taking the clomid! So that's why I got really confused about it!!
Jess - maybe that is a sign of ovulation? Do you think it could be? did Ovulation work for you last month? they say it is 6 to 12 days after your last chlomid tablet it happens, so maybe??
MRZ - fingers crossed for you. Maybe it was in the percentage that the negative was wrong.
lighthead, vauge, dizzy, faint you name it i have it when i am taking the clomid, although after your suggestions girls i took it at night and it was so much better. I have hot flushes today but should be pre "o" going to see FS for a scan tomorrow to see if there are any follicles this month, certainly feels like it
My darling husband is taking me away to a s****y hotel for a night over the weekend to make the bd'ing not soo much of a chore - i wont say no
Hey Avonlea,Maybe i will get MY husband to read your post so he gets the hint that men DO actually make the effort to make,BDing romantic.LOL...i wish.You lucky girl!!
to you all.Lets 
for some good news next cycle hey girls.Good things take time.
