Clomid buddy needed or just advice?

[sarahlou7]

The sore boobs and temp back up could be a good sign - I only got my symptoms right before AF was supposed to be due, whereas in my normal post ov months I would have had them pretty much from ov onwards.

I think somehow I'm going to have to try and relax a bit, their attitude at the appointment yesterday was very much of the dont worry, its still too early to find out much, an early scan isn't needed etc. So somehow just need to distract myself and get through the next 3 and a bit weeks (surely the dating scan is going to be sometime in that time!) I'm a natural worrier and oh isn't, so I feel like he doesn't understand why I'm worrying so much though! Xx

So hard not to poas, don't worry if you don't manage to hold off doing it xx

Scan appointment has come already! Much more efficient than I was expecting - 10th April! Not too long! X

Omg!! I’m excited!! And it isn’t that far away!! Far enough tho!! Lol I’d be pulling my hair out waiting!! How are you feeling?? You could have twins in there! Although one is just as perfect as long as it’s healthy and happy!! How far will you be by the time the scan comes around?

I was due on today but at hasn’t arrived and I’ve had no cramps etc BUT I’m not very hopeful, my temp at 5.30 was below the coverline, I went straight back to sleep (I only took temp at that time because I woke up randomly and couldn’t sleep) I took it again at 8.30 which is a lay in for me, and it was higher than yesterday and above coverline. I used the 5.30 temp on my chart... but not sure which one is legit! I haven’t poas for 2 days now!! Go me!! Haha!!! Apart from that nothings happening!

 

[sarahlou7]

Somewhere inbetween the two temps is probably closer to the correct one? Hopefully still no sign of AF? I think you should poas again - two days is long enough to withhold!! Xx

Jumping back in to say hi. 10th April will be here in no time, Sarah.

Fingers crossed for you this month, Kay.

I’ve been bleeding for over three weeks now. Extremely heavily. Had a scheduled appt with the consultant last week anyway, so that was good timing.

They’ve taken loads of blood and I’m awaiting results. One to check if I’m anaemic after losing so much blood and few other recurring miscarriage blood tests (lupus and sticky blood). Big news is that I’m on the list for ovarian drilling! Quite excited about that, as well as being petrified.

Will check in again soon. Positive thoughts for you both x

Ahh I just wrote a massive message and cleared it all

Af got me in the end, but I’m not surprised my cycle last month was all over the place according to temps... And spotting up till ov... I’m much more hopeful this time... also going to try cd3-7 of clomid and not 2-6 just to see if it makes any difference so first pill will be tonight!

Welcome back mrsablett! 3 weeks!! I’d be going out of my mind!! Although that did happen to me a long time ago and ever since I’ve had problems maintaining my iron!! Hope your ok!

Keep us updated x

Urgh Kay I'm sorry AF arrived, maybe it needed a month to get back to normal after the cp last month - that must have made your hormones a bit all over the place for a while. Good luck with taking the clomid this month - taking it from day 3 is supposed to help increase the luteal phase I've read I think. Are you still trying to get an appointment with your local clinic now you've moved?

Lovely to hear from you mrsablett, sorry to hear about all the unexplained bleeding. I don't know anything about ovarian drilling, but exciting! Do you know how long it usually takes to get an appointment? Xx

 

[sarahlou7]

Hi Kay and mrsablett, how are you doing? Kay, how is this cycle of clomid going? X

 

[mrsablett]

Hi Sarah

Well I've stopped bleeding. 33 days of heavy flow and I'm not even anaemic. GO ME! HaHa.

Just waiting for my consultant to get in touch re the ovarian drilling now. All other test regarding reoccurring miscarriages came back normal, so the next bleed that comes, i'm starting the Tamoxifen.

How are you? Counting down the days till your scan I bet!

xx

 

[sarahlou7]

33 days that's unbelievable - how are you feeling emotional wise? Can't believe you're not abaemic, your diet must be really good.

Good that all the tests are normal although I guess its hard not to have a reason for why its happening. Good luck with the tamoxifen, really hope it works xx

 

[mrsablett]

Have you had your scan, Sarah?????

 

[sarahlou7]

Hi mrsablett, thanks for the message - yes I have! There was most definitely a baby there and she estimated me at 12+1 but couldn't get proper measurements as the baby wouldn't play ball. The positive side is we get to go for another scan in a couple of weeks. I think it was the most terrified I've been in my life leading up to that scan!

How are you doing? Have you heard anymore about the ovarian drilling and how did it go on the tamoxifen? X
