What cycle of Clomid are you on?? any side effects?

Hello everyone I think that this form will be very helpful for all that are on Clomid or that will start Clomid soon.

Let me start by saying that I have PCOS and I have 11 year old daughter I have been TTC on and off the last 7 years but since I been married a year ago we been trying faithfully. I was on Clomid in Nov. 2009 I was taking 50mg 3-7cd I was told that I didnt O on this round and that I would need to go up on my next round. Dec came and went no AF so went in to see if I was Pergo but no I was not so they put me on provrea then Clomid on 3-7 100mg. I am now on my 3 and last round of Clomid I am on 150mg 3-7 days and I hope that this time I O because on my last round they told me I O early on cd 15 I have never O in 11 years so that was a good thing. But doc said that the numbers where not where he wanted them to be at so that is why he up my clomid this time.
As for side effects on 50mg I had mood swings and hot flashes and the wonderful headaches... On 100mg I thank god I did not have any but did have crazy dreams with them. And with 150mg I had the vision problems. I just hope that this time works.
Would love to hear your stories on Clomid and hear how long before you got your BFP on Clomid...

I have so much baby stuff in my house still from last year when I was prego with my son. I still have the new stoller in the basement, I have a bunch of clothes..bags and bags..and bottles. I started to give things away to friends and family. But since I am being positive, and I like the stroller ill keep it for another year.

As far as my doc, I made an appt with my PCP and will be seeing her on July 19th if AF dosen't show. Ill wait another week...and call to get in sooner. I am just achy right now. I just can't decribe it in words..just BLAH

I've been gone for a while.. but I sometimes I think it's better that way, I don't want to have ttc in my mind all 24/7 :)

Rain, If you don't get AF and still want a blood test just go tell the doctor you HAVE to have a blood test, for your peace of mind! Dr really can't deny that, tell him/her you know of a lot of ppl who pregnancy didn't show up on htp and you NEED a blood test.

Sherry, I'm sorry your temp has dropped, I know the feeling of wanting to just get AF and start the new cycle, I'm on day 60 of my cycle and still no AF, I'm taking provera.

Owl, I understand about your SIL, since we've been trying my SIL has gotten pregnant, along with other 10 or so other people that I know, It's hard to be happy at first, but eventually it will go away, and no, we're not upset they're pregnant, we're just upset we can't be pregnant as well.. it;s frustrating that it comes so easy for most women except us.

Amanda, Trying, I'm getting the tubes test too, as soon as I get my period. Dr told me to take some iboprufen before going in, but he didn't mention anything about fasting. I guess I'll ask whenever I call to schedule.

Amanda, I too am afraid of buying baby things, I have a fear that I will never be a mom. Am I being too negative? Dh never wants to look at baby stuff while we're on target or walmart, he says we don't have a baby yet so no need on buying things or looking at thinks and make myself sad.

Amanda: I did take tylonal before but on an empty stomach cause you cannot eat before so I know that probably played into me getting so sick afterwards. The cramps afterwards are one thing and yes, you can handle those. Having had a baby already and a couple mc that were extremely painful, I didn't think this would be that bad. The major pain for me was wehn they blew up the balloon in my uterous and I wanted to scream. I hope it is less painful for you.

Well hubby just called me from work and told me he's going to night shift starting Sunday :( so I guess this month was my last shot on a clomid cycle cause I will only see him on friday nights and saturdays.  Im really bummed about this and don;t know what to do.  I guess we could move onto iui but i don't think I could afford it right now.

On a better note  Happy Canada Day to all my fellow Canadian ladies on here!!!  My parents took my 4 yr old to take in all the festivities as my carpet is being installed today in my basement so I have to stay home :(
