Hi Jules, I am on my fourth round of clomid, got pregnant naturally in November, miscarried in December. TTC 12 months, high numbers of progesterone which is a good sign that I am ovulating as well as their may be more than one egg. Staying very hopeful, good luck!

Hi, can anyone give me any info about clomid? I'm thinking about starting on it this cycle but would like to know the success rate and most importantly the 'real' rate of multiple pregnancies.

I was using the Depo birth control shot for about a year. My last shot was in Sept of 2011. My doctor told me that the birth control should be out of my system by the middle of January and I should receive my periods back. I have not gotten a period yet but I am having multiple symptoms of pregnancy. I have taken four home pregnancy test and all come back negative. Is there still a possibility that I may be pregnant??
