Trying for baby #3 on Clomid

Hello!  I have had a long journey with infertility and miscarriages and I'm only 29!  My first pregnancy ended as a missed miscarriage.  I was physically almost 12 weeks pregnant but the baby stopped developing at 9.5 weeks.  My second pregnancy ended as a blighted ovum.  There was a sac present but no baby.  I had to have D&C's after both pregnancies.  About that time, I discovered I had hypothyroidism.  I was put on 50mcg of Levothyroxine and since then I have had difficulty getting pregnant.  I did take Clomid to conceive my first daughter 4.5 years ago.  I was on the low dose of 50.  It worked the very first cycle.  Then, when my daughter was 9 months old, I discovered I was pregnant again without taking any fertility drugs.  My second daughter is now 3 years old.  Since she was born, my husband and I have not used any protection and we have yet to get pregnant again.  I took low doses of Clomid for three months last summer and did not conceive.  My doctor upped my dosage to 100 and I took my first round last month.  I am supposed to be ovulating this weekend as I have a longer cycle of about 32 days.  I am hoping this will work as it has been about a year of unsuccessful attempts.  I would love to have one more child before I am 30.  Prayers for everyone....:)

Im in a similar situation- I have a son born in 2004 by csection, no complications at all. Went on depo for 5 years after he was born, took 11months off depo before my cycles came back, preg within 3 months- M/C at 15weeks but baby stopped a about 10weeks. BFP 1 year to the date of the m/c, with twins (natural no drugs) but m/c them at 9weeks. Now TTC on clomid 50mg. I had a hysteroscopy, laparoscopy, dnc done Jan17 due to scartissue from my Csection in 2004 and endometriosis was discovered aswell. SO doctor cleaned me up and put me on clomid to hopefully have a controlled pregnancy and help us achieve it quiet quickly as we've been trying for 3 years now with multiple unexplained m/c's. I started a vlog if your interested in following me on youtube and i've sent you a friend request as were pretty close in cd's and our situation. Hope to get to know you and ttys! :)
