TTC Twins Journey

brev - August 22

Hello ladies, I hope you don't mind but I wanted to jump in here... I just turned 30 and I was using the Mirena, I took it out this afternoon and now waiting for my AF. My DH and I were planning on using clomid but he then decided against it with this being our 6th baby and all. I still would like to try for twins since this will be the last time I am pregnant and I would like to just try. So, we'll see. He was all for it and I think since it's time to start getting everything going he might have gotten cold feet on it... I guess I just have to warm them up again :) Anyways, I was hoping to try and find some cycle buddies on here. I am hoping for AF soon and have one more cycle before getting pregnant. So really we will actually "be trying" in Sept, unless something happens before then... Well sorry to ramble. Baby dust to all.... and H&H 9 months to everyone...

Hi Ladies, sorry I've been missing but nothing much is going on here. I have 1 more cycle before ttc. Ordered my clomid but the package is stuck in NY, it's been there for almost 2 weeks. I'm getting very nervous that they wont deliver it. BlessedMommy, did you have that too? Ladies, wishing you luck and baby dust and hopefully not too many s/e from clomid. ttyl!

Still waiting on a positive pregnancy test... Its so hard to wait. I've been taking those, "so you think you might be pregnant"quizes. I didn't realize all the headaches and cramping could be signs of pregnancy. Ive been really irritable and Moody too. Like... really bad. I'm driving everyone nuts, and cry very easily. I'm feeling like an emotional roller coaster!!!

mommakit : bfp = Big Fat Positive pregnancy test! hopefully you'll be getting one anyday now! b__wing lots of sticky baby dust to you!!! trying: if you are looking at the tracking number then it will always say NY until it arrives at your house. This is the samething that happened to me but they told me it is because the tracking number is only supposed to be used for confirmation that you recieved the package...dont worry it will be there soon!! SOOOO we are in the tww now. I had very strong ovulation pains on friday cd14 from my left ovary all day. Then I had very strong ovulation pains from my right ovary all day yesterday! I am hoping and praying that both ovaries have released an egg!! Can't wait to take a pregnancy test!! oh yea and I did not take the mucinex but my cm did not dry up...it was just as fertile as any other month

Hello ladies! Hope you don't mind me sticking my 2 cents in here :) I haven't been here for about a year or so because we moved and had no internet access. If you look at my profile, you should be able to see where I've posted a lot of info on my personal experiences with u/p clomid and pregnancies. A little background in case you're wondering. I have given birth to 8 children (also have another child from dh and his ex...so 9 kids)......though I've had many issues with secondary infertility. After my long journey of error and trying this and that, we turned to clomid. We had 5 m/c's along the way. 1 of those was after starting clomid.....my clomid twins. Finally after losing our multiples due to placentas not being mature enough, and 19 months worth of trying, we conceived our miracle baby....thanks to clomid!! I had three eggs fall, two turned into huge cysts, one for each ovary and the third was to be our baby. I took 100mg's on days CD 3-7. I hurt severely the month I conceived our twins but not so much that dose. First was 50 mg's, second and third was 100 mg's. I tried Vitex, False Unicorn Root Tincture, Baby Aspirin, Vit C, Vit B6, had DH on Vitamins,etc. Not all at once mind you, but together/combinations that were safe and geared towards conceiving and increasing our odds. Anyway, my point is, keep your head held high! You can and will accomplish your dreams but sometimes it will happen a little later than you might expect. Even when you do all the "right" things. It will happen tho, and when you least expect it to. Our baby is 9 months old today. He is happy, healthy and very smart! A lil chunk :) I did order my meds through mexmeds....from Mexico :) It took almost a month to receive, but they were the real deal. My first month was HORRID with headaches and painful ovaries, but well worth taking them for me.....not worth it for many others but for me it was. I've personally seen the good and the bad from this med, however I know you would not be on this journey had you not researched thoroughly! So, you will have nothing but SUPPORT from me. I will be watching your journey and wishing you ladies the best *baby/multiples dust* ever :) Good luck and well wishes for your babies and your families.

I'm so excited! I got my clomid yesterday! I was really worried that it wasnt gonna pa__s customs in NY. Now all I have to do is get the rest of the meds and wait to start ttc. Blessed, BFP dust your way! Good luck! these 2 ww will probably seem like forever to you, baby dust! mommakit, BFP dust your way too! Have you taken the test yet? Baby dust! LindaS, thanks for joining us, very interesting story, so what was the dose when you conceived your twins? So happy to hear that you got your miracle baby!

Hi... Good luck to you, Trying4twins. Hope u could achieve what u wish ^ ^. I have posted a question in other forum but no feedback yet :( wondering anyone in here knows about the meaning or result of cycle 1-5,2-6, 3-7,4-8,5-9? which cycle would be the best to give result to conceive twins? i have searched for this information but i did not get the result. so hope somoeone would explain to me. cheers

fanfan, as far as I know, the earlier you take it, the most eggs you make but they are lower quality. If you take clomid late then the eggs are better quality but less of them, so most people take it in the middle 3-7 to get both benefits.

 

fanfan - September 2

Trying4twins, thanks alot for your explanation. I will definitely take it at cycle 3-7 then. I got the clomid that my friend left over 2 cycle for me. She had prescribed clomid and she does not need it anymore. So if you would like to match yours with mine.. pls feel free to ask me. I would take the clomid next year as i would like to have a break at this moment. Baby dust to you.

fanfan - September 4

Hi niobe... Let me explain briefly about the clomid that i got from my girlfriend who had them from prescribed clomid. The clomid is only 1 cm small white colour with a line in the middle. there is a 50 written in the other half of line and clomid written in the other half. All the best for u.

Trying I'm so excited for you! Its gonna feel like forever for AF to show up but after that the days go by kinda faster lol....I guess I'll take my test on friday..I'll be 14dpo then. It's hard not to take it sooner but I don't want any bfn discouraging me. I have been feeling slight cramping on 7dpo to 9dpo hopefully that was the baby(ies) implanting! Mommakit I hope everything is ok and can't wait for an update! Baby dust to everyone else who is joining this journey!

 

BlessedMommy - September 7

And thank you Linda S for your sharing your story and giving the rest of us hope!!

Blessed, that's so exciting! You are taking the test tomorrow!!! I can't wait to hear the results! I think you'll get a +! BFP dust your way!!! Fanfan, my clomid looks different?! it's a white round pill with a line in the middle but it doesnt say clomid or anything. The package says clomiphine but i can't even find the dosage on the package. When I got it it was wrapped in a piece of paper that said 100mg clomid, just somebody wrote it. Blessed, is that how your clomid looks too? We got it from the same website. I hope it's actually clomid and not something else.

 

fanfan - September 10

Trying4twins... the clomid that i am having now.. is 50mg... so there is a clomid and 50 stated. The box and package is written clomiphine and made in USA. Since BlessedMommy and you got from the same site... hopefully she is doing great with it...then it should be alright... BlessedMommy...good luck for you tomorrow.. best of luck for u and hope you will get a +BFP.
