symptoms after clomid and iui

I had iui on Feb.6th and am waiting for my BT on Feb. 26.  I have been experiencing abdominal cramps and backpain.  Today is cd 30 and have not seen AF (I am typically on a 25-28 day cycle). My doctor told DH and I that she suggested we move to IVF because my FSH level was slightly elevated on cd10.  I am beginning to believe that clomid may have worked for us, but don't want to get my hopes up.  I know God is in control, but the waiting and pregnancy like symptons are making me emotionally crazy!

Hi,
What kind of symptons are you having? I have had a twisting feeling that goes from one side to the other. I am also on Clomid and I don'r know if the signs I am having are from the Clomid or pregnancy.

Hello danielle689,

I have felt sharp pains like if someone were pinching my insides, but the pain is sharp & fast, often on both sides and the back.  Tomorrow is CD 32 and still no AF..  the wait for bloodtest is exhausting mainly because I'm not sure if the combination of Clomid and daily progesterone is causing the symptons???  I guess I need to be patient, but it sure is nice to talk to other women in my shoes.  Are you experiencing any other symptoms?

It is strange to suggest to move you from clomid to ivf.
What did the tests say????

If you test your beta test also the progesteron. this will give you an indication about when you'll get AF

Doctor is pretty aggressive and says my elevated FSH level at CD10 may be a sign that I am not prodcuing the right amount of follicle stimulating hormone I need to release a "good" egg.  After clomid, my ultrasound showed 3 follicles, the smallest 17, the others much larger at 23, 24.  The next day I went in for iui.  Today is cd 33 and still no AF.  I guess I'll see what the blood test shows on Tuesday morning. Say a prayer for me!

I hope clomid worked for you!

Thanks for the well wishes!   I am 5 weeks PRG and have my 1st ultrasound next week.
For those using Clomid, it really works!!
