MAMA-BEANS, TRIPLETMOM!!!How great to hear from you guys again! I hope all is well. It sure sound like I haven't missed much. People are still after info on how to harm themselves and any unborn children. How great for them, how smart of them! How selfish of them!!!

Corona - how are you?? I rarely come on the computer anymore so I have completely lost touch with what is going on. How old are your twins now? I hope that you are all doing well. As for this thread.. some things never change :)

Hi everyone, I am new to this site--I am TTC for 10 cycles, and I just got put on Clomid after the last 4 months of Metformin alone did not work (I was not ovulating at all). I was started on 50 mg Clomid, and got positive OPK on CD17, went in for my CD21 and just got my results today (on CD25)--they are 60ng/mL!!! My doctor said this is huge!! My temps are also amazing, the first normal chart I've ever had!
For the Clomid Moms with twins, what were your progesterone levels at CD21? Were they pretty huge too?
Thank you!! I am too scared to be too optimistic, but it would be so great to see a BFP!

Hi Tripletmom!! Things are going well. it's amazing how well one can function on no sleep! The twins will be 3months old on the 14th! Boy has time just flown by. Aidan is doing well. He is however a wee bit of a drama queen & attention hog. I'm sure it will pa__s...not! Grasyn has a pretty serious case of reflux. I guess an indicator is 5 occurances in an hour...she had 12. Some what of an overachiever. The medication just isn't working for her so we will see the gastro. ped. again soon. How are things with your gang??

Hi Ladies, I'm new here. I was reading through most of the question and Answers about clomid. I too am wanting to use clomid to concieve twins, I do ovulate regularly. Does anyone know who used un prescribed clomid and was successful and which site did you get it from. Thanks

For those of you concerned for me harming myself or unborn children by taking unprescribed Clomid(fertomid) that I ordered from freedom pharmacy off the internet and took 9 days to get to me, you need not worry yourselves b/c I conceived strictly by taking herbal supplements this month just found out 3 days ago when I got a faint bfp at 10dpo. and have continued to get darker results with daily tests. I took fertility blend with vitex and about 675 mg. of extra vitex I purchased from a GNC. also vit b6 and b complex, coral calcium, extra vit. c, and I took 600mg of robitussin a day just to aid my cervical fluid. I conceived the first time ever trying this combo and usually takes me way over a year to conceive. So anyone scared to take the clomid may want to try the herbal way first, don't know yet it it stimulated me enough for twins though! I was only going to take Clomid to increase my odds of pregnancy since I have a hard time due to a only one short fallopian tube.. I wish luck to all. Rom

Hi ladies, i too would like to be pregnant with twins again, as my last pregnancy was identical twin boys with no help from any medication, unfortunately i lost them at 16 weeks, for reasons i still don't know, I know i can never have my two little boys back, but I would like to try once again to experience and carry to full term such a blessing, the only thing is i am a bit ignorant in this sense, I have been reading a bit on what you ladies have been writing but i am a bit lost when you mention things like 2-6 and 3-7, 5-9, and things like CD and bfp, could someone pls explain what i should be doing pls. thank you

angelica21: CD is cycle day and BFP is "big fat positive" (as in home pregnancy test result)
Clomid is usually prescribed to be taken on cycle day 3-7 or 5-9, depending on your individual circ_mstances. I am currently on my second pregnancy thanks to clomid.

MNMOM: Thanks for that, Congrats on your pregnancy, are you having twins? did clomid increase your chances? my last period was on the 28 of Oct and finish on the 1st of November, and every month it's different i'm very irregular, what would that make me? and when would I start taking clomid especially cause i'm so irregular? rom wrote there what she did and now she is pregnant with twins, do you think that would be better to do it that way? by the way where would i get a hold of clomid unprescribed and that would deliever to Sydney Australia without ha__sells, doubt the docs here would give it to me so easy.

Angelica: I will find out tomorrow if I am having twins, but that has never been my goal, I just want one healthy baby. Women who can ovulate on their own usually do not need clomid to convceive and I would never recommend you take it without a doctors supervision, as there can be very dangerous side effects. If you are simply irregular with your cycles, you would be a good candidate to track your ovulation with a home test and chart your cycles and I am sure you will achieve a pregnancy without the need for unprescibed drugs. Talk to your doctor for advice also. Try soy supplements, that is a natural alternative. Good luck to you.

MNMOM: Thank you for your concern, What kind of dangerous side effects are involved? there are 2 reasons i really would like twins, if i do fall pregnant again and carry to full term this it would be my third cesarean, (and I've heard you can only have 3 cesareans), and the 2nd reason is that my last pregnancy was identical twin boys with no help from any medication, unfortunately i lost them at 16 weeks, for reasons, I think could have been avoided, I know I can't change what happen and I can't ever have my two little boys back, and would never try to replace them, but I was told by my doctor that the chances of carrying identical twins again are very low, but I would like to try having twins again and to experience and carry to full term such a blessing.
