Sunita & Shannon I'm so sorry your started...I do no how frustrating it is. Pls stay hopeful.
Julie - well did you hear the heart beat (s)?
Amanda how r u? Jaime?

Hey Lauren! My doctor appointment isn't until Monday morning. I'm anxiously awaiting it....I'll feel better when I hear a heartbeat with the doppler...and then I'll be about ready to stop my progesterone supplements, and I'll be scared to death! I'm so nervous to go off them, but know it's not good to continue them past the 12th week. I just hope the placenta is producing enough of it by then. How are you feeling? My morning sickness seems to be getting worse (and I didn't think it could do that!). I'm just over 11 weeks (baby 10 weeks), and I was hoping it would start letting up soon. But, I'm not so lucky. With both of my kids, I was sick until about 16 weeks or so. So I guess this one won't be any different. :-( I hope you're doing well, and everyone else also!

Hello all,

I am new here so please ignore me if I am out of line. I just wanted to show of my youngest bub and ask if you would mind voting for him. His name is Mason and he has a yellow towel on him head and two little toothy pegs. Do a word search (CTRL and F together) and type in Mason to find him at http://www.babyexpress.com.au/shop/phot

Thanks heaps, I am so proud!! Baby dust to all, and I'll keep reading to see if anyones dreams come true before Christmas! Want to hear LOTS, lol! Kind Regards, Laura

Hi Lauren. Doing better here. The nausasness has finally stopped, but am extremely tired all the time. Sunday early morning I passed a BUNCH of tissue. Stayed calm since it happened once before though not as bad. I didn't miscarry thank God. I went to the doctor again on Monday and had another U/S. The baby is fine. They don't know why I keep passing tissue. My cirvex looks great and nothing showed on the U/S. And I had just started to relax with this pregnancy :-) I don't think that I passed it all the first time since I had been having light spotting. I will keep you all informed, but I think everything will be okay. Take care.

Hi girls, it's great to hear you're all doing so well - keep it up, as hard as it sometimes seems we all know it's worth it! I'm on CD5 today and have started my 2nd round of clomid 50mg. This time round I will be also purchasing an OPK which should help me out somewhat more than last month - so let's see what happens!! Take care every1, S x

Hi, OK I am trying to get set to start my second cycle of clomid in a week or so (whenever AF shows). I am trying to figure out the best days for most follicles & least likelyhood of miscarriage. I am thinking of 100mg days 4-8 and kinda shoot right in the middle. Heres my POLL:

IF YOU HAD A MISCARRIAGE ON CLOMID, WHAT DAYS WHERE YOU TAKING IT? IF YOU HAVE HAD A SUCCESSFUL PREGNANCY, WHAT DAYS WHERE YOU TAKING IT?

Thanks, just trying to get all this figured out. MMOT2002

Well, on my first round of clomid, I took it days 2-6 (50mg) and miscarried early at about 6 weeks. So, after my first cycle (after miscarriage) I took the other dose I had, but took it days 3-7. I'm also on progesterone right now, and am currently almost 12 weeks from lmp. However, I ovulated really late this cycle, and my baby should be about a week behind that.

I ordered for 3 months 100mgs of generic clomid at InHousedrugstore.com. I got it within the week! I really recommend them. I don't know how long it will take to Australia, but it was sent to me airmail from Vanatu. Good luck to all.

Sunita--

I got tired of spending so much money on OPKs. A friend of mine recommended this site where I order my ovulation and pregnancy strips: http://www.early-pregnancy-
tests.com/3pregtesstri.html


These test strips are WAY more sensitive to Hcg levels--20 Miu/ml.
I'm very happy and satisfied. I sound like a giant advert agency, but I wanted to share this information to everyone. The post to Laura in Australia was from me, by the way.

I would definitely recommend www.babyhopes.com for OPK test strips and pregnancy tests. It is much cheaper to buy the OPK strips in bulk than picking them up at the drugstore.

Hi everyone, I have posted once here, but am rather new. I have a question. My husband and I really want twins. I have PCOS and was prescribed clomid by my doctor. 50mg days 5-9. I took it days 4-8 though. But I did ovulate taking it days 4-8 because I had high progesterone levels and a big empty follicle on a transvaginal u/s. My new RE gave me 100mg of clomid to take days 3-7. Since I know I ovulated on days 4-8 on fifty mg. which days should I take 100mg to increase my chances of twins? Days 4-8 like on 50? TIA for any comments or info.

Hey everyone! Just checking in to see how everyone is doing. I've got my doctor appointment tomorrow morning, so I'll update you after that. I hope I am far enough along to hear a heartbeat! We'll see... Updates anyone?

Well, I just got back from the doctor. He couldn't find the heartbeat again, and I was starting to freak out a little. He sent me to have an U/S and we saw a healthy 12 week baby, with a strong heartbeat dancing all over the place. I was SO relieved. The tech said it looked like I had a tipped Uterus...which surprised me because I've had 2 children already, and specifically asked them if I did before, and was told that I didn't have one. I asked because my mom and my sister both have one. Anyways, that's why they couldn't hear the heartbeat. So, all is well over here. I'm still sick as a dog, and hope to be able to stop my progesterone soon, and maybe the nausea will ease up a little

To Julie: Congrats!!! That is such great news and gives us with the same kind of story hope. Keep us updated.

Hi everyone! Julie I am so happy for you. It is always reassuring to see your baby moving. Just remember that nausea is a good thing, it is a sign that things are progressing. Well finished my clomid today. so here is to BD. to answer the poll and previous questions I live in the US and have had two previous singletons on 3-7. I am mixing it up a bit this time and taking days 5-9.

Hi all, Have been lurking here for a few weeks now. Had an early MC last cycle so took clomid 50mg days 1 & 2 then 100mg the next 3 doses. Just tested pos at 8dpo, am 10 dpo now and went for a blood test today.
I have 4 children already, PCOS and 2 of my other children were conceived using clomid 50mg.
Would love twins, and would be scared at the same time, but a healthy singleton will be just as good :)
