Jessicab3 - Hi and you already know I need your help I am the most confused person I bet you know. Okay here it goes I took clomid cd 3-7 and I took estrodoil cd 8-12 and I started bding cd 6-11 and then on cd 14. I started doing the opk test on cd 12 I took 2 test that day the first one was a faint pos and the 2nd one was real dark and my temp on that day was 97.85 on cd 13 opk was pos and temp was 97.93 on cd 14 opk was pos and temp was 98.43 on cd 15 opk was neg and temp was 98.75 on cd 16 opk was pos and temp was 98.39 and today I forgot I took my last one opk and it was neg and my temp was 98.58. According to FF it said I ovulated on cd-13 so now I guess I am 4dpo and my lower back is killing me and my b___bs are really sore and I am more tired then I normally would be. Also I was suppose to start the progesterone gel today (cd-17 until AF show or until I get a + on the hpt and keep taking it until 10wks) but I didn't have the money to get the meds do you think this will mess up my chances and I also I stop the ba and robintussin or should I keep taking it? Also according to FF it said take a hpt on July 9 that would make my cd 32 days and I should start on Jul 8 but my dr told me to take a hpt on cd 27&28. I haven't been able to bd since cd 14 cause dh brother got shot and he has been at the hospital with him he just got home so I will try and bd before I go to work or when I get off. Krissy68

Krissy, so sorry about your brother in law, yikes! From what you told me it definitlely looks like you O'd on CD13. Once you are at about 2DPO there is no need to keep BDing or keep taking the robitussin. Don't worry about the progesterone either. Your BBs hurting is a good sign that your progesterone is already high so you probably don't need it anyways. I would keep taking the ba though until you get a BFP. Since you O'd on CD13 you should expect af on CD27 so you can definitely take an hpt by then. Hope that helps. Now just relax and enjoy your 2WW hun.

Jessicab3 - Thanks you so much he is home and doing a lot better he is in a lot of pain they shot him through one leg went through his PETER and out the other leg. I will start back taking the ba I had stop. Today I am cd 20 and I had my ultra sound but I don't know anything she did ask had I took any meds and I took her yes clomid/estrodoil so she said she would get a very detailed look on the inside I had to have 2 u/s one onto of the tummy and the other was transv____al but it was okay I can find out about my u/s on friday also that is the day my doctor told me to do the hpt. Yes my b___bs are still hurting and I am feeling sick to my stomach and I have been peeing a lot but I'm thinking I had to drink all that d__n water this morning. I need a update about the baby did you test again. Krissy68

 

LadyDJ - June 28

Jessicab3 I have a few questions: I've been experience some cramping since I've been taking Clomid. Is this normal? I've read other post of other women experiencing this same side effect. My cycle isn't due for another 8-10 days (my cycle is irregular). Is this cramping lead to miscarrage? It isn't that painful, and it dosen't feel like PMS cramps...My b___st aren't feeling tender (they usually are 2-3 weeks before my cycle) Can you give me a little of your insight on this topic?

 

Jessicab3 - June 30

LadyDJ, unless the cramping is severe you have nothing to worry about. Most women on clomid notice some cramping around O time. And O pain can occur anytime from a few days before O upto the few days after. Plus some women also experience implantation pain as well. If the cramping persists past the normal implantation time (6-10dpo) then you may want to give your doc a call to rule out an ovarian cyst. But I doubt that is the case.

 

LadyDJ - June 30

Thanks Jessicab3. I no longer have any cramping. I'm just waiting for the + pregnant results.

Jessicab3: I am b___st feeding and have not had a period yet .Do you think it is ok for me to take the SOY ISOFLAVONES like you would take clomid, only at a much lower dosage.I have not read anything about women eating tofu while b___st feeding. Have you?

 

justinsbaby - August 12

Hi y'all! I haven't posted in awhile but I was taking the soy Isoflavones cd1-5 plus vitamin c, folic acid, Calcium, and mucinex. I just found out I am 5 weeks! I got my BFP!!! I'll let you know if it's twins!

First of all I want to thank you all for you information .... Hi ladies ... Im on a mission this cycle. Im going to take several vitamins in order to boost my fertility. I just need your help as to how much and when to take it. (Qucik Medical Review: 20yrs old TTC for almost two yrs. One perterm labor which ended in a misscarriage. On Clomid for about 4 cycles total. Doctor wants to try injection cycle but cnt afford it so im giving clomid one more try.) I will be taking my Clomid 100mg CD1-5 ... Geritol, Folic Acid, B6, Baby Aspirin, Red Raspberry Leaf Tea, Omega 3 w/ DHA and Evening Primrose Oil from CD1. Robitussin on CD 8 until I ovulate. Then Wild Yam Root and Progestrone Cream from my big O until my AF or +++ arrives. I might stick some SIV in there as im only doing Siphene 100mg (generic clomid) and it has not work all the other times. Also I will be increases my beef, milk and cheese supply daily. I ran my plan with my doctor, he says it will not work but I still wanna give it a try.

Justinbaby - Congrats to you and here's to a healthy and happy 9 months please give us updates from time to time and take care of yourself. vheni3 - Good Luck to you this cycle. I'm keeping my fingers cross for you. I'm not sure what days and how much of the medicines you name you would need to take. I'm shocked that your doctor would say such a thing. Hang in there!

jessicab3 - Do you know much about Provera? Provera just makes you have a period right? It doesnt matter where you are in your cycle right? How long does it take Provera to work? If the above are correct I have a theory I was wondering if any of you ladies could shead some light on as to why it would or wouldnt work. Theory on TTC Twins: Instead of taking provera at the end of you cycle, could you take it at mid cycle before you O. Then the next month you will have 2 months worth of eggs ready to be released. Then when you O, you would O 2 eggs (or more if you are on clomid). Would this work? I dont know anything really about provera so this may not be possible. What do yall think?
