Symptom spotters anonymous lol

[Luella]

Hello all - currently 1 dpo I think. First month 'properly' ttc n2 and not getting my hopes up. Didn't test til 15dpo with my son and got a strong positive then so am going to try to hold off testing for the same time. Absolutely no symptoms, but too early I suppose! Good luck to all of you.
Salisbury - you mustn't let someone make you feel bad about yourself. No one deserves that.

My head has felt a bit funny today, bit cotton woolly/disoriented.
Horrible period. Still heavy, end of day 2 x

Is anyone else on clomid? X

I saw a clomid thread in long term not long ago xx

Cd1 for me ladies. Not a surprise as didn't try at all this cycle, concentrated effort this month! Was actually pleased to see AF had reared her ugly head, no spotting again and bang on 28 days since last time, ideal! Very relieved everything seems to be settling back to normal since last MC. Triple effort this cycle as definitely feel ready to get going again.

Salisbury you need to get that checked out ASAP if you have the coil, I take it you are not ttc?

Hayley FX'd for clomid cycle yay x

I was having that spotting ClaireDoll, this was my first cycle of not having the spotting and a normal for me length of AF. Hoping this cycle isn't as long either.

FX'd for you this cycle xxxx

Evening all. 4dpo for me today. Not symptom spotting - we only DTD three times this cycle so I'm not holding my breath!

Bowen therapy session tomorrow evening. I don't think she's going to do anything specific until I have a diagnosis. Just general wellbeing and lymphatic drainage 2 weeks ago so I expect the same tomorrow.

Bloods on Wednesday morning, which is CD27. Then that's all tests done. Will ask nurse how soon we can book in for results.

Hayley, how does the clomid work? As in, when do you take it (which cycle days? Once a day?). Everything crossed for you. I always have regular heavy periods - does that go against PSOS?

 

[SalisburyMum]

Regular, heavy periods are a good sign for ttc.

I have regular heavy periods and he just has to hang his coat up. We've had sex 3 times this cycle as only just got back together and it seems to have worked despite the coil.

I'm going to speak to the doctor next week about getting it checked, I just feel so uncomfortable right now about anyone touching me down there.

I have been having light but always regular periods for maybe 1.5 years. AF lasting 24-36 hours. This is a sign of non ovulatory cycles. I used to bleed 3-4 at medium flow
The consultant still thinks I have PCOS. There are lots of clinical signs, you don't have to tick all the boxes
I'm taking clomid 50mg cd2-6. I have day 21 bloods at the hospital to see if I have ovulated.
I have been prescribed 3 months. I go back to see him then and will get more at a higher dose if nothing has happened.
I had a headache/ fuzzy head yesterday and felt sick last night. Couldn't eat my tea x

Morning girls

Kizzy, wow time goes so fast you are already in 2ww. Fx

Hayley, hope clomid works for you. Are you feeling more relaxed this cycle?

xx

 

[SalisburyMum]

6/7dpo

No symptoms to report, womb still feels ''there' (not sure how else to put it) mad cramps from yesterday have passed.

However I am STARVING this morning. So so hungry. Off to get a fry up in town I reckon

 

[Kizzy1981]

Hayley I'm so excited for you! Everything crossed you get s great result on day 21 bloods.

Charlotte I know I'm in 2ww but don't feel it! I feel like there's zero chance of me conceiving this cycle so just focusing on Bowen and getting results.

Last nights Bowen she started on the "infertility protocol". Not dissimilar to treatments I've had before although some weird pressures on my legs that were verging on painful and also some on my face. Was about 1hr 15mins and I fell asleep twice despite all the fireworks outside. She explained we do this protocol until we feel my hormones are more balanced, the oh comes and we both begin the fertility protocol. She says she's NEVER got to this one, as everyone falls pregnant during this treatment. I get so excited every time I think about that. I so hope she's right!

Me and oh have said that if we do fall pregnant and it's a girl we'all give her the therapists name as a middle name.

Evening girls,

OH been on along shift, dropped him to work at 10.30am won't be back until 4am
I took my mam shopping today, came home and painted the kitchen!
Sitting down eating tofu and veg stir fry.

Kizzy, does she touch you all over your body ?
Sounds exciting although I don't like people touching me lol

Day 3 clomid today, side effects suck

 

[PeanutButter]

Went to the fertility show yesterday. It was amazing such useful information. Will put info up later if you ladies want? Xx

 

[Kizzy1981]

Hayley she does but only with like 2 fingers and for a few seconds. She like pushes a muscle / pressure point then leaves the room for like 10 minutes. It's really relaxing. What side effects are you getting?

Yes please PB! We need all the help we can get!

I know I'm in 2ww so shouldn't be drinking etc but all my mates that have recently had babies have said they abs they're friends carried on as normal... so I had 7 vodkas Friday night plus 3 cocktails and 5 pints last night lol. I'm also really focusing on the gym and doing lots of weight training. Decided if I can't get pregnant going to become she ra lol.

 

[Crazycatwoman]

Morning girls,

Kizzy, I have horrendous headaches, hot flushes, mood swings and nausea.
Yesterday I ate a crunchie all day until I made myself tofu stir fry late last night.

PB, learn anything interesting ?

4th day of clomid, CD5.
Just want CD10 to arrive to start opks and get BD'ing lol

I take mine at night and the only symptom I have during the day is hot flushes. Maybe try that and see if it makes a difference?

 

[SalisburyMum]

Kizzy, I had a couple of drinks last night too. I think it's only when placenta develops that there is fear about cross over, so not too concerned about that right now.

I have an aching womb again today. Is beginning to worry me a bit if I'm not pregnant something is wrong

 

[Crazycatwoman]

I will try evenings next cycle SP. where are you in your cycle ?

I have what looks like a thickish shiny cm on TP. What do I call this ?creamy cm ?

WI'll post a new thread with info and pics from the show tomorrow ladies. Sorry I've just got one hell of a headache right now, just got back from work.

Hope you all ok xx

 

[Crazycatwoman]

I've got some little creamy circle patches in my knickers which usually resembles ewcm.
I also read circles are fertile, lines are unfertile.
I'm only cd5, day 4 of clomid.
Did an opk,which is negative.
