Good luck and please keep us posted. So many people drop off after they get their blood tests!  I am saying a prayer right now for you!

I couldn't agree with you more - your post sounds like I wrote it. There is nothing there that I'm not experiencing as well.

I go in tomorrow for my blood work, to confirm (or not), what the hpt have been telling me now for the last 7 days.

Good luck to you all!!

I think with all the hormones they give you most of the pregnancy symptoms are masked by these shots.   With progesterone etc my boobs are huge!  I can say that I DO have food cravings and weird ones.  It just started.  Smells to certain things too.  I feel like I am crazy but I feel the way I feel.   Its weird how we look for just about anything to hold onto.   I did a no no and kept test with hpt.   I have been getting postive after positive and the nurse did say by the secong week of the 2ww that is a very good sign.   What have you heard?

The weird thing is I had slight hot flashes from the clomid but these just started 2 days ago.  I o'ed on Sat.  I know that htey aren't a sign of being preg. I just think it's weird that they started the day after o.  

Lexima..not sure about the blood test on CD16 but they took blood from me everyday from day10-15.  They checked my estrogen etc.  My estrogen was good at 735...I think the nurse said it has to be over 250.  Are you talking about 16DPO?  I am going in on 15 days past shot for preg. test.

I'm trying not get my hopes up, this pretty much happens every month, I start paying too much attention to any ache and pain that I might feel.  Which could be nothing.  But after trying clomid for 6 cycles, this month I started Injectable drugs, that's why I'm extra nervous.
I guess we'll see what happens.

I was told that on the 16th day I can come to the Fert. Clinic for a blood test.  Not sure if I will do that or just wait a little longer to see if period actually starts.  Usually I'm very regular, but I was told that Injections might change that.

As for Clomid I had crazy hot flashes when I was taking it.

I don't think they are a pregnancy sign... but I know that all 3 times I took Clomid, I had night/day sweats (just happened randomly).  
I've been (overly) paranoid about any physical changes I have... really, really wishing one of those darn ailments will be a pregnancy sign.  
Although this sort of fed the paranoia a little, I found this site to be helpful in listing the early symptoms:

I'm 3 DPO and today I started to get slight cramps.  I'm thinking it's a good thing.  My chart says I o'ed on Sat.  so I guess we'll see.  I keep having night sweats but I think it's from the clomid I took days 5-9.  Night sweats aren't a pregnancy sign, right?

I'm at 7 DPO and have had similar symptoms.  I've had cramps and definitely sore breasts/nipples, but I haven't had the spotting.  My lower back has been kind of achy too.  I don't get myself too worked up about the symptoms b/c they could just be from ovulating (I don't ovulate on my own, so I don't really know what's considered "normal").  It would be nice if they were signs of a bfp though!

Few of my firends had babies recently.  And it does seem that symptoms are different for everyone.
Because I've been trying for 2 years, I keep thinking if I'm experiencing any of them.  Once again it could be all in my head.

i agree....this girl i knew was 7 mths pregnant before she found out...i know it sounds unbelievable but it is true.  she was aborting the baby when it happened.  she is a tiny girl too.  she never weighed more than 115lbs w/ any of her succesful pregnancies.  i hate her for that part....but my heart bleeds for her unborn son.  i could only hope that i would have no symptoms....and this might be it....:)

pregnancy symptoms dont start like people expect all the time. my firend was six motnhs pregnant and she didnt even know. its a true story. hpts said negative all the way up to 6 months believe it or not. and she wasnt trying to get pregnant so she wasnt checking with blood tests. she found out because she had bad constipation and went to er. so no you dont always get symptoms.

Hello, I'm in my 8 DPO and can't stop thinking whether it worked this time or not.  This month I completed my first cycle of injections (Follisitim) after being on clomid for 6 cycles.  For the past 3 days I've been having mild cramps not exactly period cramps, I guess somewhat similar to Ovulation cramps.  Also my breast have been very tender the last few days.  I saw some very light spotting on 5DPO, don't know what that meant.  I'm just afraid that it's all in my head.
At this point I'm just doing my 16 day countdown, and hoping that this month will be different.

Good luck to everyone.

i do agree with you.  I hate the feeling like that too.  I keep thinking positive i am pregnant and i did acted like i am pregnant.  everytimes i did that my husband keep saying, "it's all in your head".  he doesn't want me feel disappoint again and again.  

anyway, i did felt my boobs hurt and tingling.  it's feel very weird just like when you first have your breast.  i keep hoping i am pregnant, but i still do not want to be sad if it's turn out to be BFN.  

good luck to you.
