argomez, sending lots of ligt, and prayers your way! hang in there girl!

Thanks Yesi. The cramping has calmed down so I'll keep my eyes on things. Thank you again!

Month 6, and i will take 100mg clomid on day 3 to 7. I was advised to take it day 2 to 6, but i forgot in all this tension at home. Has anyone had success taking it on day 3 to 7.

Good Morning Ladies & God Bless You! Today is my last day of follistim and I must say last night was not as pleasant as Sunday night. I think the needle was too cold so tonight I'll make sure that isn't the case. Tomorrow I have my follicle scan at 8:45am and I should find out if I can get my trigger shot and then IUI on Thursday. I'm pretty sure I'm ready b/c I've been cramping, especially on my left side so I know they are growing, just praying they are big enough. I got pretty worried yesterday after the bleeding but it stopped, thank you all for your prayers. I'm not even sure if anyone reads all my post but I know there is someone out there who I'm touching so I will continue with them until I get my BFP. Keep the faith and DO NOT give up! shannesah - I don't have a success story yet for you but my Dr. always prescribed days 3 to 7 and I always had great follicles so it works. Praying for your BFP this month girlie. seb - I realized I missed replying to you the other day, sorry about that. How are you doing? Did you already start your round without the trigger? Thanks for the encouragement! DH was so good on the shots, last night hurt a little more but like a dummy I left the needles in the fridge with the medication so I think they were a little too cold. I won't make that mistake again. :)

Argomez - I am so glad that you are still posting on here. I think of you often and cannot wait to hear about your bfp. I know several of the ladies that have moved to the facebook forum still read the posts here, so just know you are still in all of our prayers. I am so glad that your bleeding stopped and you are on the right track. I bet the cold needle was the problem, that sounds absolutely horrible! At least you figure out what it was though so you can avoid putting them in the fridge from now on :) I am on cd 7 and will take my fourth dose of clomid tonight. Tomorrow's the last one, I can't wait :)

shaneesah - There have been lots of ladies on here that have had success with cd 3-7. I personally am all over the gamut and got a bfp on 4-8 and 8-12 so who knows lol. The most common recommendations though are 3-7 or 5-9, so I think you'll be safe whenever you start them. Lots of baby dust your way!

Ladies, I need more prayer and advice. So I went in for my ultrasound and I have 1 large follicle on my right side (closed) and 4 on my left but all in the 14 size range. The Dr. found a patch of fluid in my uterus lining which concerned him so he put me on an estrogen patch and had me go and give blood to check my estrogen level. I'm not sure if it's too high or low, anyone know about this? He made the decision to wait until tomorrow to decide whether or not we will do a trigger b/c of how well I responded to the medications. If my eggs grow too much overnight than he will cancel the IUI, if not we will move on as planned and of course if all is okay with the fluid which he said this estrogen patches should clear it right up.

argomez - That's great that you have so many on your left side. Hopefully the extra day will help them grow just a little bit more before the trigger. I don't think that they would grow so much overnight that you wouldn't be able to trigger though. With four, you might even have a chance at multiples! My dr also put me on an estrogen patch last cycle to thicken my lining. I have never heard about it helping with fluid though, I'm sorry. Your in my prayers, keep us posted :)

Argomez~ I'm sending lots of prayers up for you! I have faith everything will be okay for you. Keep us posted. Everyone else....sending lots or baby dust!

Good evening Ladies, so tomorrow starts day 1 of Clomid :) I'm praying for no side effects but will deal with them as they come. I'm on day 5-9 has anyone had any success with 5-9 on getting a BFP !!!! Please let me know. Positive stories are the best so please share away..... Thanks

God Morning Ladies! So I got a call yesterday evening that my estradiol was really low so to keep on my patch and go ahead and do another follistim shot last night. I went this morning and PRAISE GOD!!!! the fluid is gone! my lining is thicker! AND I have a 17.9mm, two 15.2mm follicles on my left and a 22.2mm & 17mm on my right (closed side). My Dr. said with his IVF patients anything over 15mm usually has a mature egg inside so he was very positive about this cycle and the nurse gave me my trigger shot. Tomorrow I am scheduled for my IUI! :) I am so excited! I asked him if low estrogen could have been an ongoing problem and he said, absolutely so I have to keep my patch on and went in for more blood work this morning. Thank you ladies so much for your prayers. myjournie - Thanks so much for your prayers! They worked! ttcasimonsbaby - I didn't get a BFP but did take clomid on days 5-9 and every month had two great looking follicles. I found out this morning though that I could have had an ongoing problem with my estrogen levels so that might be why I never got pregnant. Blessings! seb - you were right, they didn't grow too much that I couldn't trigger. I feel very blessed. What about you, how's this cycle coming along?

Hello girls! well, today is my CD13. yesterday morning i tested and the OPK was negative, but i tested again at 7 pm, and it was positive! I have been cramping all day today, so I think I may be ovulating today. Of course DH and I have been pretty busy since yesterday morning- LOL! so, so far, I took Clomid 50mg days 3-7. Estradiol 3 x a day from CD8-12. I'll OPK test again this afternoon, and will probably do it for the next 5 days- I read somewhere that Clomid may give you false OPK positives-, but I will start taking Prometrium this saturday (which would be 2 days after ovulation, if I'm correct). I hope this all works this cycle! :) argomez: you are a trooper! I'm praying for you to get your + soon!! Thanks for keeping us all updated with the process- We're here for support :) myjouney: congrats on your referral, and with the Clomid start! keep going strong! Baby dust for all of us :) Hopfully

Argomez - I am SO excited for you! I am so happy that things are finally going your way, it has been a very, very long time coming. Hopefully the estrogen was all you needed and now you are well on your way to a huge, sticky bfp :) Thanks for asking about me. I took my last clomid pill last night, so we will start the bd very soon :) No opk's for me this month, but I always feel O, so hopefully this will be it for us too!

So.... I'm half way through the day and no side effects yet.... Praying that they stay away and that all goes in my and hubbys favor...... Best of luck to all you ladies....

Hello Everyone! This is my third day taking Clomid 50 mg. So far no major side effects.

Oh and my gyno have me taking days 5-9. :)
