    Hey, while you two are in here, can I ask a question? I've been told (by 1 doc only) that I would never be put on Clomid because of my weight and the added risk of multiples - have either of you heard/been told that? I never pursued it because I thought it was out of the question, but I thought I'd ask...

    Hope you don't mind me briefly hijacking your thread PX :REDFACE:

    Hi jack *waves* LOL.

    Actually my GP did talk about the risk of multiples (5% chance?) but not about my weight. I've put on a lot of weight lately, I'm now 75 kgs and 167.5 cm tall. Pre DD1 I was 62, doh!

    Hi jack *waves* LOL.
    Dude, it took me SO long to figure out who Jack was

    Hmm, that's good to know! So, only through an FS, or can a GP do it?

    As far as I know only a FS/OB can prescribe clomid. Man if you were in Melbourne Id so tell you to go to my guy. Straight to the point, nice man lol

    Gosh I hope she doesn't mean she is sending me to a FS to get clomid, he is like $100 / 10 minutes! This lady is definitely not a FS nor an ob/gyn. It would also take me ages to get an appointment again. Blah... I guess I find out Thursday.

    Im really hoping it works pronto for you PrincessXanthe

    Kieke: No I am big and my FS never said anything. I was about ?116kgs when I went to him. He said the risks of multiples were 7%. He said I am what I am.
