I am a week past by ovulation after taking clomid. I was pregnant last year by lost the baby at 9 weeks. We have been trying ever since with no luck. Hoping this first round of clomid will do the trick as I have been ovulating these past months, but my cycle is so irregular. Anyway holding thumbs for all of you too. Best of luck.

hi fiona well i dont know about anything else u talked about but i do know that the pain ur having is normal its like a sharp stabbing pain, im 7 weeks i tried forever just like u and finally, and im also scared to misscarry but try not to do any heavy lifting anything that gets u exhausted get lots of sleep take good care of ur self

I am 20yrs and have just started taking metformin and my doc gave me duphaston to get a period and than i am to take 100mg clomid days 1-5 of my cycle has any one else been given the higher dose from the start if so why? ttc 2years

I am about 5 weeks pregnant (thanks to chlomid). 3 days ago I went into urgent care for terrible right abdominal pains, rt shoulder pain and some bleeding. My hCG level was 9000, equivalent to 5-6 wks pregnant. the pain subsided and came back the next day. We went into triage and they did an US. I was in so much pain- I couldnt breath, they wouldnt give me anything for the pain in case I would need surgery. They said it could be free flowing blood due to an ectopic pregnancy (I had a miscarriage in sep '04 at 8wks-also used chlomid). The Dr. then came in and said the pain I was experiencing was my uterus expanding and working harder because I am pregnant with twins! Boy was I shocked- how can it cause so much pain? Some of you have mentioned sharp pains- but like this? Has anyone experienced anything similar to this?? I have taken the last 2 days off work and wonder if I should take the rest of the week off? I am a teacher and my cla__s is terrible this year. The pain is not as bad, just the sharp pains and some spotting at times (Dr. said that is due to implantation) Any advice is appreciated! Thanks.

hi girls, christinam, i know how your feeling, i am 7 weeks pregnant and tomorrow am going for my 1st scan. i have been woken up during the night with these pains and it really starts me panicking cause i think that something is wrong!!! i hate being worried like this because its not good for me or baby!!! hopefully i will know more tomorrow

I was just wondering if anyone that does have a period every month got pergant on clomid? I have a period every month mine is just always a week early. It was never like that untill i came off birth control even before i was out on it i was alway 28-30 day and i was just wondering if i had a good chance of getting pergnat the frist few times on clomid if anyone has any advise please write back i want a baby so bad and so does my husband. I go back to the dr next tuesday and i hope she gives me good news but i am already cramping like i am going to start. My prayers are with everyone trying and that are pergnat.

Thank you fi for your response. It does rea__sure me. Please let me know how your appt goes. Very interested. Maria- Yes, I had very regular periods for the 2 1/2 years,(no luck getting PG) but after checking my ovulation each month for almost 2 yrs I went to my OB. I got pregnant my first time using Chlomid- although I did miscarry. I got pregnant the 2nd time using chlomid after the miscarriage. I think my body needed help allowing more eggs to be released, because I was ovulating but nothing more than that would happen. We needed chlomid! ;-)

Hi Fiona. I was 28 when I began taking clomid. It wasn't working for me at 50mg, then my dr prescribed 100mg tabs. After 8 months of taking clomid, I became pregnant with triplets. I went into premature labor on 10/1/04. The babies were born (2 girls, 1 boy) but they only lasted for about 1 hr. Very, very sad. But I'm hopeful that next time it will be better. I am back on clomid, this is my first cycle. I'm hoping for only 1 baby this time. The fact that I got pregnant is of great joy to me since I thought for years I was infertile. I experienced the stabbing pains as well. I though I was getting my period, but instead I was pregnant. Good luck. Hope everything is fine.

I would like to know 11weeks until my next shot on my depo shot and could I get pregnancy unprotected

Fiona, how are you doing? how was your appt? Your in my prayers.

Fiona- I just started Clomid yesterday (day 5), My husband and I have been trying for the past 5 months. I have been ovulating but my cycles are not regular- 21- 27 days. My doctor wanted to put me on Clomid when we first began trying to regulate my cycles. I decided to wait a few months to see what happened. Over the past month, I have spoken to my doctor on a regular basis. I have also done a lot of research on the drug itself. There is an increased risk in multiple birth- I happen to think it is more than a 10% increase, my doctor thinks so as well. The pains that you are feeling are normal. As long as you don't start to bleed. Hopefully, the clomid works for me and my husband fast. If you are getiing worried about anything during your pregnancy, just call the doctor. If it is anything to be worried about, the doctor will see you. Good luck with everything and Congratulations!

Hi, I am 22 yrs old and irregular on my period which my doctor had prescribed prometrium for me that is supposed to give me my period I started it on 01-12-05 & supposed to take for 9 days which I stopped on 01-25-05. Then I'm supposed to wait for my period which I started spotting on 01-18-05. My doctor told me to wait she said the first day of your bleeding to wait 5 days & start clomid 50 mg. Started clomid on 01-22-05 and supposed to take days 5 thru 9 of cycle, I stop taking clomid on 01-26-05 & on the last day of taking clomid I'm supposed to start intercourse and do it every other day for 10 days thats when I'm most fertile. She also told me that after intercourse each time to lay in bed up to 30 mins.So hopefully I will get pregnant this round doctor said I should take a pregnancy test on valentines day! Anybody know what symptoms I should look for to tell if I'm pregnant?Had lots of mood swings real tired all the time sore b___sts and cramping in my stomach! Not sure if its from medication I guess it's a wait and see thing. Good luck To Everyone!

Hi, I'm 23 and have been trying to get pregnant for about 2 years now. Since I first started my period (i was about 13 years old) They have been irregular until I was about 15 years old and I completely stopped having periods. I went to numerous doctors and was told it was normal. I was tested (blood test) for polycystic overy syndrome a couple times and was told I did not have this. Back in Sept of 04 I went to the doctor for help with getting pregant, I was then refered to a gyno who was sure I had polycystic even before he done any test. He then preformed a transv____al ultrasound wich confirmed it. He also found I had endometrial Hyperplasia and cyst in my uterus. I had a D&C (which I also found out i had a unicornuate uterus (half a uterus)) and was then sceduled for a diagnostic Laparoscopy. I had to get blood test done first and the results came back positive for pregnancy though the level was low. I had blood test done once a week for the next few weeks, the levels went up but not like they should have. The dr said it was not growing right or it was growing in one of my tubes. This was very hard to hear. We went ahead with the laparoscopy (the preganacy ended up terminating its self) and found it was not in my tube. Its been a week since that was done and right now I have to take medication for 5 days to have my period. On the 5th day of my period I am to start Clomid. The instruction paper I was given says to take a teaspoon of Robitussin twice a day on the 4th thru 7th day after the last clomid and to have intercourse on the 5th and 7th day. The reason for this long story (sorry about the length) is I was wondering if anyone might have any of the same diagnosis as me and if so are you or were pregnant, if so is/was there any complications, and if any one might know the reason for taking Robitussin?
