Hi everyone ... I've been a regular in the 6month+ thread and tomorrow I'll be starting on clomid. I look forward to gettting to know you all.
Alisia, I've read a little of your journal ... and now you're so close to the first IUI. Everything crossed for you for tomorrow. Good luck :goodluck:
Lis, I guess your done with the pills for this cycle and getting warmed up for the BDing ... good luck with ovulation and with catching that egg.
Kazz, I hope you've caught your egg and that the TWW passes quickly.
Me ... I already have one beautiful daughter. We haven't used contraception since DD was born and began seriously trying (charting & actually DTD frequently :lol:) about 9 months ago. Being generally impatient, I got a referral to an FS and found out that there is actually something wrong ... what ... long erratic cycles are not NORMAL ... hmmmmm. I'm very excited that clomid is a chance to fix the problem and give my somewhat underperforming hormonal system a bit of a kick ...
Hi everyone,
just a bit emotional at the moment... i have been on metformin 1500mg a day for about 8 weeks now and nothing has happened at all, i havent got af or ovulated or got a bfp just wondering how long should you give it till you try your next option. Also had my first doc's appointment last week for the first time since i started it and i was expecting some blood tests or somthing to check my levels but she did nothin just told me to come back in about 2 months and dtd regulary. Is that what she was supposed to do or should i have had some tests? I am just so confused about all this assited conception and i have no one to ask. And to top it all off i found out today that my sil is pegnant again with her 2nd child and her first isnt even 10months and not wanting to be nasty but she doesnt really do that great of a job with her first and it just makes me upsett when ppl like that can just think about gettin preg and it happens and then there is me who really really wants a child and it feels like it is never goin to happen for us...
Sorry about the long rant i am just so upsett right now and i should be happy cause i am goin to be an aunty again but i just cant be happy about it even though i try.
Hi kristie,
Sorry you're feeling so sad at the moment. I know it can get hard when others seem to get pg so easily and others of us don't. Its just the way it is though and for me I just hope that this is the only bit of bad luck that DH and I have in our lives. I was just saying to my DH yesterday that it doesn't seem fair that we have to go through all this. Friends of ours just had their no. 2 yesterday and both of them have some serious health problems and are on some hefty medications but they still managed to conceive both times very easily. DH and I are health conscious and healthy and yet we need assistance - admitedly its just cos of me though. I think you've just got to know that you'll get there in the end if you want it enough and you'll treasure your special baby all the more. :)
Regarding your Metformin - are you under the care of a FS or just a GP? If you're not seeing a FS then I would recommend you get a referral. If you are seeing a FS then I think perhaps you need to ask some more questions and take control yourself - you may even be better off changing FS if you're not happy with how you're being managed.
Have you been diagnosed with PCOS? From what I've read Metformin is used to help control insulin levels and this can help with some forms of PCOS where the condition is worsened by insulin resistance. Has this all been properly investigated for you? Some PCOS is not associated with insulin resistance. If this is the case for you then the Metformin won't work and you'll need the Clomid to make you O. If you've been on the Metformin for 8 weeks now and no O then maybe its not going to work for you. Me, I've had very looooooong cycles and my FS picked up a few small cysts on my ovaries when she did an U/S. To make me O she's put me on Clomid. I don't have PCOS and I don't have an insulin problem so Metformin was never going to do anything for me.
Hope you feel better soon and good luck with the next step in your TTC journey :thumbsup:
Hi ladies.....
After reading Kristie's blog, I thought I had to write something...... I realise it probably wont help but we all have those moments and you cant dwell on them because they can cause serious damage.
A friend who got married on the same day as us, must have fallen pregnant on her honeymoon and now has a bouncing boy and my darkest moment was when i met an old colleague in the street who told me she was 4 months pregnant and rubbed my stomach and asked how i was going. I couldnt say I was happy for her and just walked away and burst into tears.....that was my moment...the one that made me realise..i threw out my ovulation charts and I haven't bought an OPK since. I cant go back to that, I didnt like what I had become.
There is no reason or rhyme as to who or why this happens....we just have to accept our lot and let it go....and trust that if it is meant to be..it will be....and of course we can try to help it along :bluedust: and maybe take out shares in the pharmaceutical companies!!!:D
Hi everyone,
Lismith25, I get where your coming from, sometimes our reactions surprise us when we are confronted with other peoples pregnancies and baby stories.....
I have a friend who gave birth to fraternal twins 5 months ago.....she was bragging about having it all over and done with in one hit..... well, that kind of hurt because I have one little boy and we've been trying to get pregnant ever since and can't......I hadn't told her of my inability to conceive at that stage....My reaction was to say I couldn't cope with two at once and felt blessed to just have one....That must have sounded a bit spiteful to her and I only realised I'd said it after i'd blurted it out...... I later found out off her partner that they had been trying for a year to get pregnant, something that she conveniently left out of our conversations......makes me wonder if she did have a bit of help in the trying to conceive department, because she's always saying it was natural....why would you bother....
Anyway I've vented too now......it's good to get it off your chest....
I hope everyone in this thread gets a BFP, because we all deserve it 10 times over......

Hi girls
Mind if I join in? I'm a lurker in these threads but am feeling quite fed up today.
I am on my 8th cycle of clomid (only 25mg but seems to work) but have been told that you shouldn't do more than 6months by my natropath. Has anyone heard this before as well??
I am concerned that if I go off it I won't ovulate at all!! Am starting to think about IVF but am doing another cycle of clomid and IUI this month and see how we go. Have nearly had enough of doing the same thing over and over though and starting to think I might need to try something different.
Any ideas?
BTW, totally understand about pregnant friends, relatives etc. They seem to be everywhere at the moment. What's going on?? Baby boom!!??
See yas
welcome all newbies...
Kate -I had heard that after 12 months you a higher risk group for ovarian cancer:wall:which is why it isnt recommended to go beyond that....I myself am on 50mg and was given repeat prescription for the full 12 months....but it is my Gyno's opionion that clomid is pretty effective and should work well before that. My next meeting with him iF we have not had a bfp is in Nov when I will be in my 6th cycle and we will re-evaluate our plan of attack. But here's hoping it wont get to that:pray:
Anyways im at cd15 at the moment and am feeling good so Im taking that as a sign all is well down south and hopefully my :bfp: is just around the corner...so :bluedust: for everyone, lets hope August is a good month for us all.
Kazz -how are you doing...it must be blood test time already???
Alicia - have you found out if clomid worked for you yet??
MGM - hope things are still looking good for you
Lisxx
Oh, I competely forgot to let you all know!
Hav been in a bit of a whirlwind. Well, we had our first scan last Wednesday. AND I had a 17mm follie! The next day it had grown to 21.7mm!!!!! I had the HCG trigger then, and the IUI in the Friday. Am just in the TTW to find out if it is a sticky!!! Can test next Wednesday 22-08-07, and have th clinic appt. on Friday 24th. :D
Hi there,
Leasha0986 Fantastic news....can't wait to see a BFP!!!!!
Lismith25 Catch that eggie........I'm having as BT tommorrow for progesterone....can test in 9 days.....

hi Kristie, how are things going now?
Hi everyone.
Ellas mum: Im still tryin to adjust to my sil pregnancy but i think i am coming to terms with it.
I am just starting to think what my next option is after metformin and how long should i try on the metformin till i try the next option. If someone could tell me what the next option is after the metformin that would be great. The metformin just doesnt seem to be workin for me and it is a bit of a let down cause before starting on it i read so many ppls succsess stories and read about the great statistics. And it seems to be having no effect on me at all.
Hi everyone having a black day today....things have not been going well and now have found out that I didnt ovulate :cry:. Started crying this morning over trivial things and have now taken over crying over my crap body.
And am now quite possibly for the first time since we started trying... i am starting to despair that maybe im just not going to be able to conceive. :cry:
I guess this my moarning period, no doubt after a good dose of alcohol, things will seem better.
clomid cycle number 4 here we come :wall:
Hi there Lismith25, I'm in a similar boat to you, I'm on my 3rd round going on 4th of clomid.....AF is due any day now, as there are too many symptoms to ignore.....I know how you feel.......you get excited at the beginning of every month that this is going to be it, you take your tablets, you do all the right things, have loads of sex, then the dreaded TWW, living with the hope that again this is it.......then whammo narda.....nuthin' it's like a kick in the teeth.....That's why I feel like getting smashed as soon as I can to take away the pain.......In my case it's the not being in control of the situation that makes it so frustrating.....I've done everything I've put my mind to in my lifetime, except this......The question that burns bright for me is is it ever going to happen or not....if I knew it wasn't, then I could just give up and enjoy the other things that life has to offer me, but the not knowing is the hardest.....
Sorry if I've brought anyone down with my vent.....but that's how it is....we must all keep each other pumped and positive along this journey as it is one of the toughest mentally.....When my AF arrives, I'm going to have a bottle or two of champagne for my 39th B'day, then I'm going out to buy an exercise machine, so I can look hot when I turn 40!!!!heheheheheheheh....don't mind me I'm just mad......cheer up Lismith25....

Thanks Kazz, you made me smile.....and yes we should remain positve.
The hardest part for me is that I have only had one month in the last 8 where it could have been possible to get preggers and I just want to be given a fair chance. And its going to sound strange but I am having spasms and odd bits of cramping so something is obviously going on down there (their obviously having a party that i wasnt invited too) and dh told me he thought I had, as I had the same smell I had last time......:wall:why does it have to be so confusing???? Anyway it ok now.... I did get drunk, thursday and last night but it was medicinal obviously :redface:
Spoke to my gyno...he said he wasn't worried but concerned!! he is putting me up to 100mg for the next 3 months and then we are stopping the clomid, cos if that doesnt do it, its not going to work and we have to try other options.Im probably going to have crappy side-effects with this lot as well but if it works i'll take just about anything.
And as af isnt going to appear, i'll pretend i have had a 28 day cycle and start the tablets next week.........so again lets try for ovulation :pray:
On the lighter side....dh has won a reprieve from doing his :sperm:test..I told him that if we didnt get pregnant this time he was being marched into the lab....ha oh well I still might just to put him under the microscope for a bit :D
Goodnesss its a bit of a rant.....apologies for that.
WE WILL CONQUER THIS :bluedust::bluedust:
Kazz I hope you have a great birthday :happybirthday:
Hi Kristie86,:
I'm with you on the frustration of TTC. It's sad, frustrating, painful and depressing all at the same time. I hope, like me, that these feelings come in waves for you and are not there constantly.
I've recently started on Metformin too. From my understanding, Metformin is not an ovulation inducing drug, but rather one that can stabilise hormones enough to allow your body to ovulate naturally. This is only when insulin is contributing to the havoc of hormones. Sometimes it isn't enough to return natural cycles, but there are still benefits (such as avoiding diabetes, help with weight if it's an issue for you). I've read everywhere that Metformin works best in conjuction with a low GI diet and exercise (regardless of your weight) so maybe that's something you can look at.
My GP has started me on Metformin until I see my FS in September, who will hopefully start me on Clomid. There are numerous studies that show clomid and met together increase ovulation and conception rates, as well as lower miscarriage rates, so it's worth staying on it. You should speak to your GP about a referral to see a FS to take the 'next step'. Just remember with pcos, (in my case anyway) you have to have been TTC for 6 months before they'll step in with ovulation inducers.
Take care and good luck!
Hi all, guess I am back here again...
HPT gave me 3 BFP's (2 on Thursday, 1 yesterday) but AF arrived yesterday, a few hours after the BFP, so i definately won't be buying that HPT brand again (dodgy Forelife Ultra).
Not looking forward to taking the Clomid again, though I REALLY don't envy you having to take 100mg lismith!!!!!!! I'm only on 25mg again. Fingers crossed that this time is the time for us.
Good luck to everyone :-)
Hi everyone had a bit of a development....erm I think I have just ovulated. Had all the signs cramping, back ache, cm was perfect, temps were up and yes I even broke my drought and bought a opk and i had a positve yesterday and positive today?????? but am not getting ahead of myself until the I have a bt to confirm it.
So now im a little confuscious......is it possible to ov this late it will be cd26 and still get preg as I have heard the egg quality may not be as good? Do I need to increase my doseage now? so many questions and waiting for my fs to call me back and getting impatient.......maybe just maybe :pray:
Watch this space
Sorry your back here Leasha, but good luck with the next cycle
Hi lismith,
I've been watching this thread for a while. Thought I'd stick my head in an respond to your last post.
I've just had my first Clomid O - CD29. I started on 25mg for 5 days then had a BT and it showed my hormones weren't responding. My FS then upped the dose straight away to 50mg for 3 days (no luck). We then did 3 days again at 50mg still no luck. This last dose I did 50mg for 5 days and I O'd 5 days after taking the last tab.
I asked my FS about the late O and she said that its not a problem. That the egg quality will be totally fine. I had a BT on Monday which showed a good hormone response but no O (and my OPK was -ve). On Tues night my OPK was +ve (very unexpected) and then on Wed it showed I was O'ing! :dance: Its such a relief to get the O isn't it! I just wish DH and I had a bit more warning so we could have plenty of :sperm: up there to greet the eggie. :crossfingers: Hopefully its enough though. If I'm not UTD after this cycle then I'm to start on 50mg CD2-CD6 and see how we go from there.
:goodluck: for your BT and the 2WW. Sending you heaps of :bluedust:
I had trouble trying to find you girls, the July date on this thread kind of threw me off!!
Oh well, to tell you all a little about us, my partner kim is on her 6th cycle of IUI with donor sperm. We did get pregnant on her 2nd cycle but sadly lost the baby at 8 weeks due to a Subchorionic Hematoma.
We were pretty happy that it only took 2 cycles for kim to become pregnant, seen as how i had done 3 IUI's then moved on to 3 cycles of IVF. I even used kims eggs for one cycle and had no luck at all.
We are starting to get really scared that maybe the pregnancy in March was just a fluke. Kim had to have a D&C on April 19th and she didnt get AF until 6 weeks later. We had the chromosome tests and everything came back normal, and we found out that it was a little girl that we lost. Anyway we got right back on the horse and did a Clomid cycle in Jun, Jul, Aug and nothing... each time she had about 2 or 3 follicles. Maybe we have just missed the boat due to our age.
This time we did a combined cycle of Clomid and injectables for the first time. She took 50mg Clomid days 2-6 as well as 75iu Puregon from days 7-12. The ultrasound on wednesday showed 2 x 17.9mm follicles and 4 smaller ones and the doctor said that kim responds to clomid better than the FSH strangely. We triggered last night and go for IUI tomorrow morning.
Just looking for some support from other girls in the same boat as us.
Does anyone else have a problem with dizziness on Clomid?
Last night I had a real adventure lol, i felt like I was drunk, I would move my head and the whole world spun (:P I wasn't drinking or on anything whacky either! Just the Clomid lol!). It was actually a little dangerous, as I stumbled a few times in the shower. It was weird.
Well, today is CD6, so only one more dose to take, I guess that if I'm not getting dizzy on Sunday then its probably the Clomid.
This is the second cycle on Clomid, and it didn't happen last cycle. Its happening a bit today too. I'm not dehydrated either (I was worried it might have been low blood pressure). Very strange. Just wondering if this is something I should be worried about. It says "dizziness and lightheadedness" on the side effects thing in the packet, so I guess its normal.
It was just very very strange!
Other than that the Clomid is treating me quite well. Still get the hot flushes, but no massive headaches like last time. Heres hoping its ripening a lovely big eggie!! Or eggies! :lol:
Hi ladies thought I would share my joy.....I have just had confirmation that I did ovulate:dance:....so there you have it o at cd26....god damn my body gives me the run around. Had a BT 3DPO and prog was 50nmol and I have another one 9DPO (was supposed to be 7DPO but its the weekend)so hopefully it will be a little stronger then, i guess that is what they are looking for!!!!
So I am back waiting again for a little sign:pray: or af.....but I dont want to tempt fate and go the the tww thread so I am going to wait right here.
Hopefully now I wont need to go up to 100mg a day :crossfingers:
:bluedust::bluedust: for everyone.....cmon we deserve to have some good news in this thread.
Princiepessa76 - thanks for that, glad to hear I am not the only one who's body cant make up its mind.
Mumtwo - welcome were all pretty sane here ...well some of the time
Leasha - this thread teaches us that unless you are a freak nothing is the same twice in a row with this drug....it made me slightly woozy as well obviously created by men lol
:lol: lismith: we're al pretty sane here huh? Except when we're on the TWW, but that time just doesn't count right!?!! Hearing you on the side effects thing... if I have to take it a few more cycles I bet I'll have discovered some side effects they've never heard of lol, since I seem to just be running down the list and checking them off "yep, had that, yep, that one too, ohhh haven't had that, maybe next time..." lol. Congrats on your O too :D
Hope this month is the month for everyone!
Princiepessa: YAY! For ovulation! Now for the TWW lol
TwoMums: Hi *waves* I said hi on my TTC journal, but thought I'd say it again!
I wrote my post in the other one, so I won't repeat myself! Last Clomid tonight (woot!) and scan next Thursday, which is CD12, I told them...too early... last cycle I wasn't ready for the trigger until CD14, and had IUI on CD15, so theres no way CD12 is give any results other than the FS telling me to come back tomorrow!
Of course, they won't listen to me lol.
Oh, I had a question... should they be taking blood to monitor my hormone levels? BT in April showed I have elevated LH levels during luteal phase, and maybe soemthing that will impact on becoming pregnant? Maybe I should bring it up...?
Hi Leasha *waves back*.. Our doctor does at least one blood test on day 11 or 12, and he measures the Estrogen (level should be about 500 per mature folllicle) and he measures the LH (to make sure there isnt a surge immenient) and it depends on those levels as to when we trigger. He also measures progestrone (should be low, kims was 2 on day 12). Clomid follicles grow much larger than natural or injectables, so he really does rely on the measurements PLUS the bloods. I would ask for blood monitoring as well, just to be on the safe side.
hi everyone,
tmi warning: Since yesterday afternoon whenever i wipe after goin to the toilet i have had a brownish red discharge. Not alot there is no need to use a tampon. So i thought af might be on the way but still nothing. I have been on metformin for about 10 weeks and have not had a period while being on it. So do u think it could be implantation bleeding and maybe i got lucky and ovulated? or do u think that af is on the way? it has been bout 12 days since we dtd because i have been really sick with the flu so is that to long to be getting implantation bleeding. And today i have been feeling really quesy in the stomach and really tired. If someone could give me some advice it would be appreciated. Im goin crazy thinkin this mite be our long awaited pregnancy but am not gettin my hopes up.
Thanks
Hi
This is the first time i have used this website. i was reading through the TTC section as my husband and i were trying for 2 years and finally worked.
Kristie, was on Metformin i must say i do not remember having any side effects or discharge. But then again it did not work for me. i found my DR was not that good.
The best thing i suggest is to contact your Dr and ask Him/Her. The quesy in the stomach i must say i had very offen during the TTC process. I also noticed you and your husband are very young. i was only 22 when we were trying and DH 24 i also found DR did not really care much as i was still young.
Hi everyone..... took my last clomid tab for this cycle, which could be my last....FS is on holidays!!!! So I have to wait for him to get back to decide my fate........Like October!!!!! I turn 39 on thursday and am starting to feel like an old bat already.....it's not funny.....At least I'm not in the TWW yet so I can have a few champers......
Leasha0986 I used to get dizziness the first 2 months of clomid then it stopped, I never fell over or anything, but you do start to feel a little bit weird to say the least....
Lismith25 The exercise machine is on it's way, and the champagne is a chillin......

Hi Everyone,
lismith - Congrats on the O :confetti: I hope it was truly spectacular. Good luck for your BT
leasha - Good luck on your next scan. :goodluck: Its very frustrating when health professionals don't listen. Its important that you have faith in your FS and trust that they know what they're doing but at the same time its your body and you've got to go with your instincts too and stick up for yourself. My FS monitors me via BT only. I had an ultrasound when I was originally diagnosed with PCO but none since. My last BT indicated that O was imminent and that's been it for this cycle.... just straight on to the 2WW. I've been temping too and I've had the temp rise so I'm sure the O happened. Also, of interest I was dizzy the first couple of days I was on Clomid and then not since. I wasn't sure if I was coming down with something or if it was a side effect. I kind of felt that weird dizzy feeling like I get when I have a hangover :redface:
Twomums - :crossfingers: for you for a BFP this month
kristie86 - Your spotting totally could be an implantation bleed. :crossfingers: Do you have any idea if you've O'd? Have you been using OPKs or temping? Have you had any ewcm? Maybe you should do a HPT. You could be pg or it could be just some hormonal changes as the Metformin is having an effect. Good luck :goodluck:
Me - This is the longest 2WW ever :wall: I'm only 6 DPO today. I've started imagining a few symptoms but I'm not out of control yet :lol:
Hi everyone, just thought i'd pop in to see how everyone is
...im going batty waiting.............. I am now 10dpo with no obvious symptoms that couldnt also be from af heading in this direction:wall:....little bit of cramping and twinges, getting touchy.....something a bit different though I am having hot flushes...face goes bright red and then I go woozy and i have the most disgusting taste in my mouth...but i could also be delusional from the clomid:lol:
So was wondering if I could pick your brains....prog level 3dpo 50nmol/ prog level 8dpo 42nmol thats not good if its already dropping is it? though its hasnt dropped hugely....does anyone know how the levels work?:doh:
And does anyone have any suggestions on when I should bite the bullet and test...I keep reading that most people will show 14dpo is this right no matter how late you ovulate......aaahh its all so confusing, now I am going insane:redface:
lismith:
They say that the progesterone peak is defined as above 15nm, so your levels sound good. I guess theres not much to do except wait and see what your levels do... if they're going to drop suddenly, they'll be doing it now (10-12DPO).
As for testing... did you get the HCG trigger? I would suggest waiting until about 12 days after the trigger. A positive should show around 14-16DPO (of course some lucky ducks get it earlier, and some never show a BFP until 5 weeks!).
:) Sounds promising for the symptoms... :D
HI everyone wanted to share my news.......I have just had my very own, very first :bfp: in fact I have had 3:cryinglaugh:...we didnt believe the first 2 first responses......so dh made me buy a digital clear blue and it is still saying PREGNANT.The irony after 14 months and many hundreds of dollars on hpt's we now dont believe them when they show the 2 little lines lol.
We are still a little sceptical.... I am 13 dpo but we will no doubt take another hpt tomorrow and then have the blood test on mon to confirm.....I think im in shock :D, I really hope this is it :bellyrubs: Im kind of scared of this not being real. I dont really want to celebrate until the blood test comes in.
Now i know that this makes me look after a complete freak, after being so completely mortified that I hadnt ovulated by the cd21 blood test and bawling my eyes out at work and getting so catatonically drunk:redface:...so ladies there is hope for everyone.....
Kazz - I hope you had a good birthday
Leasha - Good luck with this cycle.....hopefully you will get your bfp soon
Princiepessa - Im sending you lots of:bluedust: hopefully we will both be successful this month

Principessa - Have you tested yet, must be getting close!
leasha - hope we can be celebrating a BFP for you very soon!
kristie - how are you hun?? any news??
Big hello to anyone i've missed...
Well we are 11dpo, well almost 12dpo as it is midnight... we've been naughty and have tested yesterday and today and both negative...perhaps too early...last time we got a bfn on day 10 and a bfp on day 12... these next few days are going to truely drive us insane...will most likely keep testing everyday tho, hehehe, so impatient!! Kim has been on the progesterone pessaries, she has sore boobs and lots of gas, a bloated painful tummy, i am guessing these are all side effects from the pessaries tho.
Thinking of you all... :redface:
Hi guys,
Congrats lismith, all the best for the next 9 months.....I'm glad the clomid worked for you.....
Twomums....I just joined the TWW, Not sure how I went catching the eggie, fingers crossed for the next two weeks...how are you guy's going?

Well today is 12dpo and guess what... we didnt test!!! Aren't we good... we have one test in the house and everything. I was googling like mad last night about people getting negatives everyday until 14dpo - 18 dpo or later, one lady never got a positive on a home pregnancy test, her whole pregnancy!!!
My sister actually tested the same day every week and didnt get one until she was 10 weeks pregnant...she had already had a blood test the day after her period was due that told her she was indeed pregnant...what a nightmare!!
Anyway i was reading the instructions to the test we bought from Coles and it actually says to test the first day of your missed period, which would be 15dpo!!! So Kim is refusing to do the test until then... 3 loooonnnnggg days to go!
Hope everyone else is well...thinking of you all!!
Hi All
I have just done my first cycle using Clomid 50mg, and have just got the results of my Progesterone levels blood test on CD 21, and the results were 26.3. I have to wait to get in and see my FS but I was wondering does anyone know if these levels are good, or not?? This cycle I didn't feel any different to any of my other cycles except that I didn't get much CM (sorry if this was TMI), so I am curious if anyone can give me any advice.
