    No the second baby wasn't with clomid actually, she assumed she'd need it again as she only had one period in the 14 months since Ella was born & yet straight after that 1 period she fell pregnant again which was a big surprise so hopefully that is what happens with us! So have you discussed with your doctor what happens next if the Clomid is unsuccessfull, im not quite sure what the next step is? My doctor mentioned something briefly about injections of homones, do you know by any chance?

    Yeah it was totally different for me too after the provera, much heavier than usual & also went for longer but I guess at least it did the job so I shouldn't complain! Did you get pregnant in that very first cycle?

    Your friend is lucky i think. I havent talked to my doctor about any follow up options. He seems to think this will work. I guess I have to trust him. I had the last of my 1st dosage of Clomid on Saturday and im still feeling aweful. Is this what happened to you? My stomach is still upset and im still getting really tired. I know its only been two days but I want to fell better. Im over feeling sick all the time for at the moment nothing.

    You're right she is very lucky, especially because the doctors told her they thought she was going to have to resort to IVF almost definately as her case was so bad, so it just goes to show you the power of positive thought! Yes unfortunately I must say that I finished taking clomid about 10 days ago now & im still not well, I got such a bad migraine on Saturday that I spent the whole day vomitting & the doctor said it was almost definately the side effect of clomid even though i've been off it for well over a week! Id like to tell you that I feel great but I don't im afraid, I hope you improve soon though!

    Hi Kell,
    I have the most disgusting taste in my mouth and throat. Nothing seems to be removing it. Maybe its because im feeling sick still... I dont know. Sad to hear you were so sick on Saturday - must have been the day for it hehe. I hope you are feeling much better at the moment.
    Keep you chin up

    Hi Christine

    That's no good, although id say you are probably right about it being because you have been so sick, we certainly are in the wars at the moment huh? Have you finished the clomid now? I have my first blood test on Thursday so ill be keeping my fingers crossed to hear good news that it's at least made me ovulate, id be happy if it's done that at least! Will you have blood tests to see if the clomid has been effective, I only ask because I remember you saying you were in a remote spot?

    The doctor hasnt said anything about blood tests. He just said that if I dont have a period and am not pregnant after 32 or so days give him a call and he will increase the dosage. I guess its a hit or miss kinda game at the moment. Im keeping my fingers crossed for you. I hope there is at least a glimpse of good news

    Well it certainly sounds like he expects you to get pregnant which is a really good thing, you have to let me know as soon as you get the good news!!! Were you getting many periods before you started taking clomid?
