Clomid buddy needed or just advice?

[Kay1313]

Ahhhhhhhhhh!!!!!! I’m going out of my mind!!!!! Lool this is ridiculous!!!! Why is the 2ww so long!!!!! I’ve been researching bfn at 10dpo all day!! And seems a bit 50/50 that some people get a bfn at 10dpo and end up with a bfp.

I haven’t yet looked into how many cycles of ivf you can get with a different IVF clinic, I wouldn’t even know where to find my current centres advice on that because they refer you to a different clinic to have it done anyway! - just shoot me, because I’ve had enough lol

I wish I was on holiday so I didn’t have to think about this whole ttc business, although your still here everyday so I don’t know how true that would be lol hows it all going?? I’d love to go skiing, I don’t think I’d be very good at it I can’t even rollerblade but I’d definitely give it a go! - see we would be ‘cool’ mums!

Sometimes no symptoms is a good sign! Especially with clomid! You seem to of got the better end of this clomid business, I’ve got every symptom under the sun and a bfn!

When I was packing today I found an unopened pregnancy test and I thought it might be a good sign seeing as I’ve moved twice since owning it and haven’t found it before now! This was after my bfn this morning so I’m gonna hold out until 13th like originally planned and use that test for good luck! - if AF stays away!

Let’s keep positive !!! We are both getting a BFP this month!! So be careful on those slopes!! Xxx

 

[Kay1313]

WAs thinking about charting bbt as well next month. Until IVF at least lol at least I’ll have things to compare with lol

 

[sarahlou7]

Heya, how are you doing today? Hopefully no sign of AF still. Have you still got all of the same symptoms today? If I was at home I would totally be doing a test right now, so the holiday is definitely helping in that respect. My mind is also occupied most of the day with staying upright while skiing so that has helped make the whole tww tolerable. I tend to come in at the end of the day and come on here. I'm not a great skier lol but its lovely being in the snow and in the mountains - I recommend a skiing holiday just for the whole round experience including the food! I also completely forget about work for the week as it is such a different kind of holiday.

I've had a little bit of cramping today, in fact it felt like af was coming early this morning but the feeling has gone again now- I hope it doesn't mean its going to appear tomorrow. I was thinking clomid might make my cycle longer rather than shorter though. Also the nipple pain is still there but its nowhere near as bad as usual for this time of the month. I still have no other symptoms to report lol! Yes it definitely seems like we have had very different reactions to clomid post ovulation! You seem to have had everything and I feel like its as if I havent taken anything!

We can do joint test on the 13th still if we can both hold out until then? I think 10dpo is probably too early for lots of people as you read lots of stories of people not getting a bfp until well after their missed period xx

 

[Kay1313]

Ahh it sounds beautiful! I’m not a fan of cold weather at all but that’s something I would love to do!! I can imagine it’s beautiful as well! I will definitely do it! Might treat oh to a long weekend or something! Do you hire skiis out there? Can imagine I’ll be back with a few broken bones lol I love scenery so will definitely get round to it at some point!

I’m halfway through the move now! Done the first 150 miles today with a lorry full, stopping at my mums for a few days, then the remaining 150 on Saturday! I’m exhausted! But on the plus side it’s either taken my mind off all my symptoms or they have completely vanished! I’ve had AF pains on/off every couple of hours but nothing major. And boobs are a lot less sore now! Not sure if I should be happy about this or sad!

Next cycle I want the easy ride lol you can take one for the team and experience the hell ive been in for the last 10 days!! Haha!! I’m not teasing no more now until 13th so we are Both gonna pee on the voodoo stick on the same day! I’m dreading it already after the bfn but what will be will be! I’m beginning to think this cycle will be longer for me too now, although the af cramps are on/off I’m just thinking that will typically happen to get my hopes up!

I’m also going to get a thermometer ready for next cycle!

But here’s hoping the witch stays away for both of us!!! X

 

[sarahlou7]

I just wrote you a long reply and then managed to press go back instead of reply argh!

 

[Kay1313]

I’ve done that a few times lol

Final few days to go!!

I still feel like AF is going to come at any minute!! Also uti feeling is still here, but no burning....

Final day of the move....

Help!

 

[sarahlou7]

Internet dodgy again, am going to try again!

Yes we hire our skis out here - you should def do it! I would recommend having a lesson or lessons before you leave though, to maximise your time in the snow!

Good luck with the the rest of the move today!

I'm really worried about testing as I hate those bfns so much. I always feel so positive beforehand and then so upset afterwards.

I've got really sore nipples now so I'm thinking my AF might be delayed as I would normally have has this for at least a few more days before AF. Also I have felt ridiculously emotional the last couple of days - I don't normally get that!

Maybe those symptoms you had were clomid and any that you get last couple of days and from now could be something good? Like the cramps?

Hope it goes well today xx

 

[Kay1313]

Might be a good idea to try it here first your right lol. What day are you back? 12th?

If you don’t feel emotional usually that’s a good sign!! Also your nipples being sore this late is another good sign!!! It means your progesterone is still high!! That’s brilliant!!! I so hope you have a bfp this month! I know what you mean about the bfn all the time too. I would rather af show than have one of those! We still have a few more days to go before testing... anything could happen! Literally!

I haven’t had any symptoms of anything today, but I have been busy from the second my eyes opened so that could be why.... I feel absolutely nothing, except maybe tired, but that could be because I’ve been on the go, and gassy again.... (which is new this cycle completely) oh and the uti thing, but nothing you could pin point to either a bfp or af.... even the cramps have stopped...

Now I’ve said that they will all come back lol

 

[mrsablett]

How are you both doing? Will you be testing tomorrow? I've started bleeding on CD21. Didn't monitor OV. It's very strange for me to bleed now. Wishful thinking that it's implantation bleeding....

 

[Kay1313]

21 days is early for AF! It could be implantation if it stopped soon after.
Did you use clomid?
I feel nothing today except exhausted! (Could be due to terrible sleep)
We are testing on 13th...

 

[mrsablett]

I did use Clomid. The usual 150mg. This is my 8th cycle.

The bleeding is still very light but that could change soon. I’ve got pretty strong cramps.

I’m just clinging on to the timing.

Looking forward to hearing news from you both!

 

[Kay1313]

8th cycle on 150mg? That’s very high! I thought doctors only gave 6 months max supply?
Are you definitely ov on clomid? Fingers crossed this is your lucky month!
No ones out till AF shows!!
When are you going to test? Xx

 

[sarahlou7]

I so hope you both get bfps this month!

I feel like I'm setting myself up for a big fall, as I keep thinking that thus month could be it. AF due today (according to when natural cycles thinks I ovulated and everything else seems to tally with that). Been travelling home since really early this morning so couldn't do temperature today. Have also come town with awful cold today!

Kay - your move sounds absolutely exhausting! HowRe you feeling today? Are you still going to test tomorrow? I think I'll take my temp in the morning and if it is still high I will test although I am worried that my luteal phase is just going to be a couple of days longer. I'd feel a lot better if I knew that my temp was still high today!

Mrs ablett - maybe you ovulated either very early or very late (ovulation cramps and bleeding)? On your other clomid cycles did you get mid cycle bleeding?

Fingers crossed for all of us xx

 

[mrsablett]

Never bled mid cycle. Never had such a short cycle. It’s got very heavy now, so I think it’s AF.

I had 2 cycles at 100 and the rest 150. I fell pregnant on cycle 4 but had a very early miscarriage.

Thanks for letting me join you both.... what with us being at similar stages.

 

[sarahlou7]

The month before I started the clomid I had a 17 day cycle - very strange! I think from my temps that I ovulated while still having AF. Sometimes my cycles are very mixed up and then other months they seem almost normal!

You're very welcome to join us mrsablett

 

[Kay1313]

Welcome home sarahlou! It’s nice to go away but even better to be home especially when your ttc lol
I’m testing on Tuesday 13th if no AF. So far so good, officially due tomorrow, (according to apps)

Feel like AF is going to arrive tomorrow or Tuesday morning, no cramps etc just that feeling...

If your temp is still high that’s a brilliant sign! Especially this far along! Fingers arms and legs crossed!! - (until the next round lol)

But hopefully your be getting your BFP!

This has been a horrible 2ww. So glad it’s almost over!

Ahh no mrsablett. I’m sorry, especially for your loss. I can’t imagine what that’s like when you’ve been trying so long.
It’s hard enough getting a bfn each month but to get a bfp and then a mc must be heartbreaking! Stay strong honey! Fingers crossed for next round!

 

[sarahlou7]

Oh God I'm getting so confused with dates - I thought tomorrow was 13th! I will try and hold off until Tuesday. I really hope your AF feeling is wrong...

 

[sarahlou7]

And mrsablett I echo Kay's comments on your early mc - this TTC is just so difficult and heartbreaking, and hard to stay positive. Hope being on here can help a little bit xx

 

[sarahlou7]

I feel like AF is coming, really crampy. Saving my one remaining frer that I have in the drawer for tomorrow morning, but decided to use an opk strip this morning as have read that they can show up hcg. I got quite a dark line - not as strong as a positive opk but much stronger than my normal non fertile time of the month opks. Is the clomid playing tricks on me somehow?

 

[sarahlou7]

So don't want to go to work today, complete post holiday blues. Hope you are both doing OK. Am terrified AF going to appear
