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

[Sobie]

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 think AF is on her way or something. I have been very bitchy! and I feel like everyone is just getting on my nerves. I just feel snappy.I dont know, I just want to either get on Provera ASAP or have AF come. Sorry everyone, I am not going to snap at anyone, just when I talk to people I am like Ugghhhh!!! I am in my office just tired! I slept fine yesterday night, but when driving to work, I was falling asleep. When I got to work, I closed my office door and locked it, and took a quick 45 mins nap. Ummm.....

How is everyone doing???

Rain: I hope things are getting better. That is awful that you are having to stress over the dh, this is so complicated and I hope he can pull it together and be supportive.

Sherry: Sorry for your BFN but hopefully it is just early still. I am still staying positive for you.

Jenna: That is a great number! I hope this works, it is going to be a long 2 wks waiting.

Mango: I am not familiar with the follicles, sorry. Hope someone on here can help you.

Carlis: How are you doing?

Wanna: Any news?

Well, I am okay. My HSG was yesterday and it was extremely painful. Blowing the balloon up in my uterous made me wana jump off the table and then I got totally sick afterwards from the pain and not being allowed to eat. I had a lot of cramping afterwards too. Good news is that everything is clear. I am only working half day today cause mom is here and I have swimming lessons too.

I am thankful for:
My wonderful dh who tries to be supportive and understanding, even though he isn't great about it, he tries.
My amazing little boy who is the light of my life every day. Even a bad day with him is a great day fro me.
My great animals (4Pugs) that love me and need me every day :)
And... my wonderful family especially my mom who is always here when I need her. She drove 4 hours to help me get through this week of testing and helping with my ds.

Lets get some good news on here ladies!!!

Sorry to hear about the BFN....hopefully its just not enought HCG to pick up

[sherrycoup]

well i tested this morning and was a bfn with a dollarstore test.  tEmps are still up so we'll wait to the weeks end to see  and get a beta  :)  Still thinking positive. crossing fingers its just not enough hCG to pick up

Rain: I'm so sorry to hear what you're going through with DH. It's very unfair and very unhelpful. I hope he can find some patience and grace within himself soon -- I don't htink your body can be helped by his criticism. Stay strong!

Trying: How did the tests go today? I hope you are okay...

Amanda: So happy you are out of pain! I love your list...I'll do mine at the bottom here.

Jenna: Crossing my fingers for you! 50 million?! AWESOME!!! Super sticky baby dust to you!

Sherry: You're a trooper but take my advice and HANG IN THERE.... just wait it out and see! I'm sure I'll need the same advice when my time comes this month.

Wanna: ++++??? I'm wondering if you got it today. Many ladies (I think Carlis) got there's into the 20's. I'm hoping the best for you.

I got a call from a friend today -- 4 months along -- she's kept a secret from everyone til now. I was actually thrilled for her -- not jealous or 'why not me' -- I don't know why, I just felt sincerely happy for her and her husband. She's 26 and got it on the 3rd month of using OPKs... nothing else. I hope I can join her in pregnancy before she gives birth@!!**!!!

1) My husband -- he is my tree and my light. And he will be the best father any baby could ask for!
2) My mom -- my supporter and friend. I hope I can be as great a mom as she has been to me.
3)You ladies -- for always being here, checking in, and making me feel like you really care.

So I went to the RE this morning and had my AI done. Hubby did his thing in the cup (with my assistance of course lmfao) They "washed" it and tested it. Dr said he likes swimmers to be at 20 million for AI, DH was at 50 million. So that was good. Then inside they went. Dr said everything went well and "it is up to the big guy now" I was like hmmm, ok. He said to "do it" tonight and tomorrow. Then test in 2 weeks.... other than that, no big news. Work is Blah- don't wanna be here~ And the thought of waiting 2 weeks is absolute TORTURE!

Sherry- I am so frickn excited for you, cannot wait till Wednesday wooooohooooo

Amanda- Glad to hear your not in pain anymore girlie, and even through all this crap I def agree with you, we do have plenty to be thankful for.

Rain- Hmmmm So hard to find the right words to say for your situation. I cannot even imagine having to hear those kind of hurtful things from the person who is suppose to be your biggest supporter! Keep the faith and I will keep you in my prayers! Stay strong~

Carlis- I think your idea is GRAND! Stop the pressure and madness and just have fun! So much easier said than done... I should take lessons from you. lol

Mango- Ummmm I dont even know what could have happened with the follicles. Wow. that is crazy. Maybe one of the more experienced ppl on here could help ya with that one.

I am grateful for:

1. My fabulous husband who is so understanding and supportive ("99.5% of the time) lol  He goes out of his way to make me feel like a princess every day.
2. My parents- with out their financial assistance none of this would be possible.
3. My dogs~ nothing is better than laying on the couch cuddled with a tiny weiner dog who loves you no matter what you have said, done or what mood your in.
