I’m on cycle day 5 yesterday and today I had random spotting. Temps are weird so not sure what’s going on there. I’ve got horrible allergies going on right now so that could be playing a part in it. Took and opk tonight not really sure why but it was definitely faint so not happening any time soon. Hoping it’s earlier then cycle day 24/25 this month with the metformin. Haven’t been feeling any side effects from it yet so that’s probably a good thing.
Good luck everyone

Hi ladies, hope you all are well! I'm CD4 today and started Letrozole last night. It's a low dose, only 2.5 mg because i have mild PCOS and my doctor doesn't know how i will respond to the medication. I am going back next friday (CD11) to have my ovaries scanned and to get the trigger to induce ovulation. We have had a complete work up and everything is normal except that I am mildly poly-cystic. I still ovulate on time and my doctor said that is probably because i control my diet strictly (I don't eat carbs or sugars) and I take myo-inositol. Has anyone here tried Letrozole (Femara)? We are going to try this for a few cycles with timed intercourse then move to IUI if unsuccessful. That's the plan anyway...

Good luck everyone! I can't wait until we all O and can endure the TWW together!

Kait 10dpo is still early for lots of women! You may have a surprise in the next few days

Anna Hopefully is nothing too serious and it goes away soon! How’s the nausea? Any better?
Thank you for asking! I’m doing ok I guess! Not much here.. I’m on my fertile days and we’re BDing a lot even tho I believe it’s still too early for the supplements to work but you never know! Hubby hugged me last night and he rubbed my belly while asking “baby? Are you here?” This was so sweet! I really hope we will have our baby some day!

Agatch let’s hope you’ll be ovulating soon and it’s gonna be a lucky first cycle!!!

Mama Good luck to you to hun! I hope this cycle will work out for you!

Lissa I don’t have any experience with fertility medications but I’m sure the ladies in here can help you! I’m looking forward to your bfp girl!! Hopefully the meds will do wonders!!!

Alex, has your husband started the supplements yet? That's really sweet! I really hope you get pregnant soon!

I'm feeling more and more pregnant. I didn't tell my bf about the positives yet because of the two chemicals I've had. He gets his hopes up and then is sad when it doesn't work out. I want that "pregnant" to show up on a digital before I show him! I ordered some FRERs from Amazon so those should be here soon. I'm not going to test again until I get those!

I started getting some pains last night across the front of my womb, I was so scarred after the loss we had in February and I was adamant I was going to wake up this morning to me bleeding, I think I must of just over done it yesterday after a long walk because my digital I did today says 3+ so I need to just chill out, although as you know that’s easier said than done, I’ve booked a private scan but that’s in 2 weeks time, hoping I can stop stressing till then x

Emma I remember each pregnancy feeling just like that! There sure is a lot of stretching and cramping that nobody really tells you about! I forget, is this your first?

@agatch it still looks the same as yesterday only 2 blisters and a red patch so I dunno lol I cleaned it and wrapped it... Didnt go to the doctor as SO is working night shift so have to rush home in the afternoon to see him off... I'll let it go over the weekend and see on Monday...

@Alex aww your SO will make me cry !! I'm really hoping for some good news from you soon we need a baby in you !! The nausea is completely gone (thank you trimester 2 lol)... No symptoms to update on I got heartburn 2 days during the week and I thought it was the start of it but havent had it since so I'm guessing I'm good lol

AF just showed. At least I know I ovulated with the opks and didn't have to go forever on an AO cycle, but we BD'd on all the right days so I'm bummed. Debating going back to not tracking and just giving it up to what's meant to be, but I also want to keep trying our hardest so I don't have to decide if I want to start clomid in September.

Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend. We can do this.

Hello everyone,

Congrats @Jessica and all the BFPs.

@Emma I know the feeling. I was so crazy during my 1st trimester. I was not sleeping at night. They really don t tell about all the cramping and stretching at the beg. And I don t know why between the 1st ultrasound and 2nd ultrasound there is like 7weeks of difference. It was so annoying. And I did not have money for private scans. Anyway try to relax and do some other stuff like read to baby, or flipping pages for room decoration or knit something.

@Alex I also hope you will ha e your BFP soon.
@Kait Af showing on its own is a good sign that you are ovulating.

@Ana i am glad that you are alright. Please find some natural remedies for your arm.

AFM i heard from the Dr. Finally. My results came normal. They don t know why my cycles are crazy and why i might be not ovulating at all. But I do have Hashimoto and PCOS. My ultrasound did showed multiple mini follicles and last time they check my thyroid levels they were fine. Anyway, Dr. Want me to start clomid on cd3 of my next cycle and monitored me and have me having another ultrasound on cd21 . The problem is i am moving in 2weeks to another state so I won t be able to continue the treatment with her. So that is where I am right now. I asked the nurse to send her a message about sending me a prescription of clomid so I can try it on my own but I have not had any answer yet. I have taken it before and it was fine. Although I did not conceived with it i think it contributed to make me ovulate more often. Same with Femara I tried it but it did not worked for me.

Jessica Yes, he is on the supplements 3 weeks now. Dr said it probably will need 3 months to work!
Have you planned a surprise announcement for your BF? I always find this so interesting!

Emma I know I’m not the most experienced person and maybe not the right one to say this since I’ve never been in this position and I’ll probably be the same if I ever get pregnant but please try not to stress too much and enjoy this pregnancy. You have two weeks till your appointment and is not on your hand to change anything! Sending positive vibes your way

Anna I agree!! We need a baby in me lol I really wish it could be this cycle!!!!
So happy that you’re at a calm phase of your pregnancy! Do you have a bump already?

Kait AF always sucks but at least you know you ovulated! If you’re not sure if you’re Oing or not maybe keep tracking is a good idea. Just to have a pattern to refer to for future planning. At least that’s how I see it!! Good luck this cycle girl!

Lalou Hopefully the clomid will help conceiving in the first cycle of trying it and you won’t need to continue the treatment with her!! Also good luck with moving! I know how hard all this process can be!

AFM CD11 today and if everything goes normal I’m ovulating tomorrow! So yea the dreadful TWW is coming lol I’m in a lot of better mood today and I’m going back to my optimistic self again which makes me so happy! Pathetic me is not my favorite lol anyways... have a nice weekend everyone!! Hugs
