Question

Could these be Clomid side effects?

This is my first month taking Clomid CD 3-7. I'm currently on CD 29. DPO 3-today (DPO 10) I've had very prominent consistent creamy CM when normally I'm pretty dry after AF. Also, my temps this second half of my cycle have been consistently higher than last month. I took a FRER today BFN :( I was cautiously optimistic that these were all good signs of pregnancy but now I'm just depressed and sad. haha (Guess that's what you get for testing early?!) Anyway, I'm wondering if anyone knows or has had these changes due to Clomid?? It's a bummer but that's unfortunately what I'm chalking it up to be. Any help is much appreciated!

I took Clomid for about 6 months before my BFP. My temps were significantly higher when I was on Clomid than they are without it (just over a half a degree higher than they normally are). I don't remember the exact details with the CM, but I too am usually pretty dry and I remember getting annoyed by all the CM - I kept thinking AF had come early and running to the bathroom. Clomid did eventually work for me and I ended up pregnant with my son. Going back over my charts though I just noticed something - the first 4 months of Clomid my temps were all very high - there was no shift at all. One month before my BFP I finally saw a shift, but it was very slight. The month of my BFP my temps were finally in the normal range (97.6) for the first half, and then much higher after the shift (98.4). I guess my body needed to get used to the Clomid before it could work. If you see a clear shift, I'd say it's only a matter of time. Good luck!!! Oh! PS - I didn't get my BFP till 16 dpo :)

Oh my gosh that was so helpful thank you so much! I'm glad I finally got someone else's input :) The first half of my cycle my temps were all in the 97's once in the 96's and then right after O they shot up and have stayed in the 98's. That's so funny what we have to deal with as women!! Yesterday was my sob day, today however...back to positivity! Thank you for your reply!
