TTC & Taking Clomid/Metformin ~ May 2008

[Lou Lou]

Twomums - wow, sounds like a lot of activity in your camp. I hope it works out for you both. I'm new to this thread so I'm going to have to look up a lot of the things you mentioned on Google etc. to see what they all mean. I'm glad to hear you're in the TWW though

Me - I have my folicle scan tomorrow and I'm scared. I don't know why, I'm just finding TTC a bit tough at the moment

Hello to everyone else I haven't met yet and good luck to one and all

[Lou Lou]

Just stopping in with my scan news. I have 4 follicles, 1 of which is doing particularly well. My FS kept going back to look at it and saying things like 'wow' and 'oh my God!'. He said they should grow 2mm a day until I O (probably this Sunday).

He said the clomid is definitely working for me and he is happy with my progersterone levels as well. He also said my uterine lining is good so that's a relief. I guess now we just have to BD like crazy and hope this is our month

so happy with everyones results in here!!

My progesterone level was 90!!! I was so shocked cos when i fell pregnant last time it was only 30! so im still trying to keep optimistic even though all my symptoms have disappeared

well I had a bummer of a day when I had my acupuncture session. The acupuncturist said after taking my pulse that she couldn't feel a 'pregnancy pulse' . It was the first negative thing that had happened all month, and Dh and I were a bit down. I got some chinese herbs in tablet form also.

After posting on another forum I was advised to not take much notice of her as it was way too early to tell, normally from about 4 months. (it was CD26 and 8DPO.)

Anyway, I've had more nausea...DH made thai fish cakes last night...and I felt so bad for him cos I kept gagging and had to leave them and only eat the vegies. Then I had issues with the carrot on my plate , telling him it tasted sooo strong! wierd.

My temp. has dipped slightly this morning (10DPO), so we did an HPT .... I know, I know...too early...and it was

Oh well last months cycle was 28 days and today's CD28 so we'll see.

Fingers crossed Mabello, Loulou that sounds great!!!!

Fingerscrossed, isn't Clomid wonderful ....I've got one more round left of 100mcg...thank goodness.

Bella, any news???

Hi everyone, i just heard about this thread from LouLou..thanks so decided to drop in and say hi and hopefully be able to share some wonderful clomid stories!!! i'm not sure what to expect yet so bring it on!!!!!! i'm taking my first tablet of clomid tonight...1 tablet, 50 mg a day to start and then see how that works!!! fingers crossed!!!! can anyone tell me whats the worst i could be in for in terms of side effects???

[Lou Lou]

Mabello - 90?! OMG! That's the highest I've ever heard of. Great news Sorry about the BFN but hopefully that's just because you tested early

Airline - sorry about your BFN too. Let's hope the results change for you very soon as well.

Dotty - glad you found this thread. How are you feeling? I get mild crampings from clomid and my first round gave me mood swings (but I may have had them anyway as I was very stressed about TTC so it's hard to tell). Good luck - I hope it does it's job. You're having a progesterone test at CD21-23 as well?
