Pregnancy Info HOME

my dear ladies i hate seeing you suffering like this i hope there was something i could do to take the pain away but there isn't. All i know is that all those tears will one day become tears of joy. you know geewife when someone does something that hurts me, i look at them and say to myself "Father forgive her as she doesn't know what she's doing" Jesus said the same words when they were crucifying him, and it works for me everytime. i do cry and i do get angry but once i start mummbling these words i feel better. Rowan my darling i was hoping we both prego, but now that you not i'm even more scared to test, i'm still waiting for the AF no sign, breast getting bigger everyday, my back is sore today and some cramps here and there i guess its AF. after cheri's prediction i kind of told myself that AF is just late my month is january. Please guys don't feel too said its not healthy at all. i still believe by june next year we will ALL be talking nappies.

Hi Ladies. THANK YOU SO MUCH... you guys are all so awesome. I know we are in this together & we will achieve our goals. My girlfriend just found out yest. she is just peg. Doesn't that always happen! Well I'm spotting a little red this a.m so here we go I guess. I am think ing of doing BBT's this mth & maybe OPK's....thoughts? Is there another drug that does what clomid does without all the side effects? What a great team we have here....you guys rock! Bul don't be scared be sure!

you right Rowan, if i'm going to be disappointed i'll be disappointed whenever i decide to take this test. i need to finish some assignments this weekend so don't want any stress, after submitting i'll take a test (that should be monday)and let you know. Meg still no pregnancy symptoms??. u right Rowan we have a bunch of amazing people here and i sometimes feel like i know all of you, should have seen me telling my man about Meg, u'd swear i know her.

Hi Ladies! I'm so sorry that some of you are going through such bad times right now. I know it may be hard, but stay positive! Like many of you have said, it will happen...& soon! Geewife, I would also be very upset! When I had my follicle scan they immediately called my OB's office, faxed them the results, & sent me over there to talk to the dr. Waiting 3-5 days could make you miss your fertile days! Good for you for continuing to bd! Bul, that's great you finally got your Cheri prediction...it's something to look forward to! Although maybe you are pg. now?? As for me, still not one symptom of pg. I had another beta test on Monday, my numbers were 3751, which means they are doubling every day & a hlaf, which is great! I meet with the nurse on Friday & then hopefully go for an u/s the following week or the week after. I don't want to go too early, because then I won't get to see the heartbeat! Sammommy, how far along are you? Good luck to you all...stay positive & have fun bding!!! :-)

Sorry everyone is having a bad day/month (well, not everyone - congrats meg!! that's great). I agree - we all need to try to stay postitve...it will happen eventually for all of us. We just have to be patient (as hard as that is). And, I agree Geewife - you should make a complaint to the hospital about the u/s and the tech. That is BS. As for me, I still feel different - I had really bad cramps last night to add to the bloating and gas and, of course, the headaches. And, now my breats are starting to hurt a little. I guess it's all from the clomid. I'm just frustrated. If the clomid doesn't work, and I have to go through all these s/e (that feel ilke early pregnancy symptoms), I don't know how much of that I can take. I should find out today or tomorrow if I'm o'ing. Wish me luck. This is a great forum though. Sometimes I feel my dh doesn't want to hear any more about clomid, pregnancy, etc. So, it's nice to have you girls to talk too. And, I feel like we are all going through similar experiences, so you DO understand when you say you do. On that topic, I was talking to my friend the other night about everything, and she was like "oh, I understand, I know people who went through this." But, this is while she is preggo with #2. It's bad, I shouldn't care, but I do. Sorry, so long - thanks for listening,

kimmer lets just hope and pray we going to have good news next month, all those who have started their next clomid cycle don't lose hope, stay positive. i never had any side effect from climid, i'm not sure is its because i took a generic clomihexal as i couldn't get clomid, only the CM was not there that all.

Hi Geewife ~ I've been thinking about your scan all night. I was wondering if you can ask the Doc. if there is somewhere you can go where they'll do the scan the way they did mine. I watched everything on a t.v., and the tech. pointed out each of the ovaries and the follicle that was mature in it.
She then calculated the size of the follicles (I was still watching) and told me their measurements, and what size they needed to be to release. She then calculated approximate release days and told us what to do at home. That was it. There was no waiting for a doc at all. If no-one does anything like that where you are, you are more than welcome to fly out to CA, stay with us and see my lady : ) I mean it!!!! Meg ~ I'm so glad things are going well for you! Great numbers! Are you about 6 weeks? On Sunday, I will be 11 weeks. A little worried about disappearing twin syndrome........but, almost out of the 1st trimester. I'll feel much better then :)

Called the doctor for my progesterone test results, and I'm not ovulating....my progesterone is super low. I'm pretty upset right now...I really hoped that the clomid at least worked, especially with all the s/e that I've had from it. I know I only tried 50 mgs., and I could be bumped up, but I'm really worried about the s/e on double the dose...what do you think?

BTW, I know I'm probably overreacting, but I hate not knowing what is wrong with me. My dh and I have been trying for about 10 mos. And, this is the first fertility treatment we've tried. But, I feel like I should go through some testing to determine what is wrong before taking more medication. Maybe I shoudl go see a RE. Right now I'm just seeing my obgyn.

Sammommy you are so sweet. If I could afford to fly 3000 miles from florida to CA to have this scan done today I would. I called my doc office this morning I am still waiting to here back. I am trying to be patient. I just got a phone call from my sister in law she is 5 weks pregnant. Her hubby is in the navy and is scheduled to leave next month. This is kid number 3 for her. I cried a little. I am sad that her hubby is going away she is such as sweet sister in law. I also cried from being envious. My friend who was on clomid and on her first try got pregnant is having a bay shower this saturday. I really don't feel like going to be honest. Oh, My neice is pregnant with baby #2 she is on gov. assistance. she is not doing to good with her self and the losers she choses as boyfriends. Then I have along time cousin that is on baby #4 with the father in prison and her other kids daddies are drunks or drug addictes. So she didn't have any where to turn but to welfare. I am like what the hell?! I have never had any assistance of any, I don't do drugs, I am almost finished with my bachelor degree so is my hubby. We are both hard working people. I just don't understand It. I am not downing anyone one the system, I knew of girl that was on it for two years with 2 kids and she got off of it once she finished college and got a good job. Look at the Harry Potter Lady. She was once on welfare and now a multi- billionaire. So you don't have to stuck there but a lot of women choose to have babies to keep the food stamps and welfare. I find it sad that they abuse the system like this and we pay for it.

If I don't hear any news from doc or she isn't able to tell anything I might have to go by an OPK. I am getting so desperate now. For some reason I think the tech did the U/S as if I was getting checked for PCOS. I remember her commenting why am I having this test again if I already had it Aug to check for cysts? That's when I went on to explain the follicle test I was supposed to be having. And could she measure them. She was like yeh we can measure them. So for a brief minute I felt a bit of relief until it was all over and she said those devasting words( check with my doc in 3-5 business days). You guys are right I need to complain. Cheri predictions are starting to make want to give her try now. I not sure tho. Sorry so chatty I will let you guys know if the doc says any thing.

I'm right there with you kimmer23. I just got off the phone and I didn't ovulate. He increased clomid to 100mg. He told me to go ahead a start on the provera. I am so frustrated right now. I know what you mean by the side effects I had them so bad with the 50mg I can only imagine what it will be like on the 100mg. I guess I will start this weekend on the next cycle.

well I talked to the nurse....... She said my doc recommended that I buy on over-the-counter OPK test. she said that she did see several follicles they were all on my right side. So I am a little relieved that there are follicles there I still would like to know the size and EXACTLY how many. She did say I should be ovulating soon so I should keep on bd for the next couple days. Anyways I took the ovulation test and it appears That I may be ovulating soon. The indication line is almost as dark as the reference line. I will recheck tomorrow. I hope tomorrow it gets darker. I knew I should've brought the digital. I find myself staing at the lines trying to figure out if it is dark enough or not.

Well, good luck Geewife - at least you know you have some mature follies. That's good news, even though the scan didn't work out. juvmyjeffery - well, I guess we can be clomid buddies this round. I will start taking the prometrium tonight for 10 days, then clomid 3-7. Maybe next month we will both ovulate!

hi girls, you sound better today geewife and i'm glad. tell you husband not to close his eyes when ejeculating and they will also close their eyes and not see where the egg is, : - ), joking just trying to make u smile. have not tested, still no period.

bul I did laugh until you said you you were joking I was going to tell him make sure you keep them eyes open. I think curiosity is going to get the best of me I am still debating on giving cheri a try. The only thing is she just takes to long with her being pregnant and all. Thanks kimmer your right at least I know there are follicles there.
