good morning ladies,

Basia - I think you were on the first forum I joined back in September. Time has been flying by. I hope your OHSS gets better and I can't wait to hear how many eggs were fertilized.

Kethryes - I start my Clomid tomorrow. I'm nervous as it's my first time taking it.

While - Good luck on your IUI!

GemmaR - Congrats on your BFP! I hope your numbers keep doubling and that there won't be any difficulties with the OHSS.

TTC - I'm really hoping you get good news on Thursday.

Red78701 - FX that you caught the egg this month. It sounds like you covered your bases.

AFM - I start my first dose of clomid tomorrow. They're starting me off at 100 mg of clomid but they aren't doing any ultrasounds or anything to determine follical growth. it makes me a bit uneasy as I don't know how my body will react. I'd be alright with twins, which both my husbands family and my friends have been wishing on me since I started dating my DH, but anything more just seems overwhelming. I'm really hoping I'll get to do the IUI on April 1st or 2nd, though it could be as early as March 30th.

Margie M - just so you know Clomid might mess with your O date. So if you normally ovulate on CD14 Clomid might change that by few days - either way. It does not have to happen but don't freak out when the usual ovulation date comes and you don't get positive OPK.

Question ladies, what should I expect to see at my u/s on Monday? I'll be 6 weeks 4 days?

Basia - that's good to know. The pharmacist that gave me the perscription didn't go over anything with me. In fact they didn't even know what CD or OPK stood for, so I'm not sure they would have know what the side effects are. I'm really hoping it won't push me past CD 19 because my DH is going away on a business trip on CD 20. I think he's leaving in the afternoon so I'd still be able to do it but anything after that it's kinda bust. my O date is usually between CD 13 and CD 17 so I'm hoping it doesn't change too much.

mptyle - can't answer that... never been pregnant but hopefully other girls can answer :)

Margie - you should be fine. Oh... take Clomid at night :) before you go to bed so you can sleep through most of the side effects

Mptyle-you should be able to see at least a yolk sac and fetal pole. I know when I went at 5weekd 5 days he expected to see these and we saw neither I hope you have better luck

TTClate30: oh I'm so sorry :( thank you for the information though...I hope that's what we see also! Just gotta be patient and wait it out now.

Basia - Thanks for the tip. Do you know if I have to take them at the exact same time everynight or just before bedtime?

I think you should stick with the same time (approximately). for my injectibles if I picked 7pm I had to stay within 1 hours so I could have taken them between 6 and 8. I would assume it would be the same with Clomid. But I only took that for 1 month so hopefully other girls can give you more info

Just wanted to join in and see how all of you wonderful ladies are doing1? I am 9 dpiui (March 7) and going absolutely nuts waiting!! I took a dose of 75 for Bravelle injections on cycle day 3-10.. I had a Ovidrel 250 MG trigger shot on March 5. Anyone having success this month!??
