Hey Wendy ,

I think I might not be far behind you. What cycle days are you taking Clomid?

Emily

Em, dont be too hard on yourself. The TWW is hard and we arent always positive...thats normal. I would say that not everyone gets symptoms early on either. I dont think you're out until AF arrives. Hang in there girl. I also feel the wait plays on my emotions.

I am feeling pretty much the same as the last few days. Only change is i had some lower back pain last night and this morning. I will test at 10/11dpo - today is 7/8dpo...not exactly sure when i O'd.

I really wanted to test today but it's too early and i'll just get disappointed. My BFP with my m/c was there at 10dpo. Very faint but there.

Hi Wendy! How are you feeling? I cant really comment on the clomid as i havent been on it and dont know much about it. Is this your first time TTC?

hi ladies,

not feeling the best today. I feel like I am out :( I tested today (I know it's early...BFN.) I also don't feel any pressure/cramps anymore. My CM changed from lotion like to watery...not sure what that means. I am feeling low. Another girl at work announced she is preggers this morning. Feeling like it'll never be my turn :( AF is expected to arrive next Saturday...i'll probably test again on Wednesday.

Hey amarah,

It's still so early like you said, you're still in it. I'm sorry you feel out :( i know how you feel, is such a rollercoaster of emotions ttc. I also tested this morning and got a bfn. All my af symptoms have turned up too, sore bbs (they weren't sore when pregnant) cp is low and hard, creamy cm, the usual! Oh and my temp did dip but has gone back up but I think it's up cos I am down with a head cold. No fun!

Was super hopeful for this month starting out, thought I'd be one of the lucky few that conceive straight away on Clomid. Holding out for a bfp for Christmas tho! Wouldn't that be so fab?? Imagine! I'm praying that I'll see a big healthy bfp before Christmas. Praying you do too!!

I'll prob test again on Wednesday too, I'll try not to tomorrow cos my bfn was stark white so ... I think I'm out.

It will be your turn soon amarah! I know it's so hard when it feels like everyone else is pregnant . We will get there soon! I just know it.

Em x

Thanks Emily!

I'll be our turn soon...hopefully Wednesday is better news for us. A BFP before Christmas would be the very best present of all :)

I was supposed to take it days 5-9, but I miscounted and took it the night of CD4. So, I'm taking it 4-8 now. Oops! Oh well.

I had EWCM today. That was weird. Only CD6. Took an opk just to see, and it was totally negative. As expected. Has clomid ever given you fertile CM this early in a cycle?

12dpo today ladies, and temp went back down again so I think it's safe to say I'm out unfortunately :( Oh wait, I'm 11dpo aren't I? Oh ... I'm losing the plot. Well... I still think it's safe to say I'm out unfortunately. I have been getting AF at 12dpo the last couple months but I think clomid might push it out to 13dpo, that would be good.

If I got pregnant next cycle I would be due the 1st week in September, but I would probably get my BFP around Christmas Day I'm trying to hold on to the positives.

I hope things are looking more positive for you, Amarah?

Wendy, Clomid didn't give me fertile CM that early at all. But it defo has different effects on diff people. Are you experiencing any headaches?

Em xxx

I totally understand that feeling of "I'm out" before you know for sure. My fingers are crossed for you still, anyway.

My temp actually jumped up today, so weird. If I were in the middle of my cycle, I'd say I was O'ing. Still getting EWCM. There is no way it's happening this soon. Yes, I had a headache two nights ago. It wasn't super bad, but I took some naproxen so I could sleep easier.

Em, I am sorry that you feel out. I don’t think you’re out until AF is here. ? A Christmas BFP would be so wonderful too. Did your doctor tell you the success rate of people on Clomid? Ie. Women get pregnant within 6 months or something like that? Probably is case by case as most of this pregnancy stuff is. I hope it works for both you ladies.

My lower back is killing me the last few days. Not sure if it’s a possible BFP on it’s way or if I tweaked it. I am having cramps, increased CM still…I took a test today and BFN. It wasn’t as stark white as yesterdays...I thought I could see a very very faint shadow but definitely not something I am getting excited over yet as it’s barely there (and I am not fully sure it’s even there). Going to try and test again in a few days. My DH wants me to wait until the weekend so I don’t drive myself more crazy. The constant testing and tracking every symptom does something to you mentally. I wish I could be more relaxed about it or better yet- get pregnant by accident lol Kind of envious of people like that. I feel like being I’m 32 – I am starting this baby adventure a little late (I guess it just doesn’t fall into my mind’s perfect timeline lol) and hence more pressure. I also have a full time step son (he’s 12) and I’d like to give him a sibling. That being said, I do feel more “in” as of this morning. We will see. Keep me posted ladies.

Hi :)

Just thought I would follow up - 13 dpo - still feeling "pregnant" but I tested at 12 dpo and BFN. AF is supposed to show up tomorrow. We will see. I plan on testing again on Monday if AF doesn't show this weekend. I hope you ladies are well!!
