Current Clomid Cyclers (3C?) :) -- just checking in

LyssRob

I know a bunch of us are currently on our first cycle of Clomid, but even if you're on a multiple cycle...how are you doing???

I've taken 3 pills and so far I have had one day of horrible cramps and 3 nights of night sweats/bad nights of sleep, but overall this isnt as bad as I thought it would be.  (Maybe the worst is yet to come?)  I have a headache now but it could be from the lack of sleep.

Mostly I'm just anxious for the next u/s and b/w to see if the damn things are working!  I think finding out that I didn't respond would be harder on me than finding out I DID respond but getting a BFN.

I'm in my first cycle too. It hasn't been too bad for me. I was having hot flashes from my new thyroid meds but they stopped around day 3 of clomid. I am super anxious about next week. I'm a total planner and not having a schedule until after my u/s is tough.

I'm in the two week window.  I feel fine.  Pretty tired but I don't know if Clomid has anything to do with it.

I'm on day 3 of my second round of clomid. I was pretty much symptom-free (aside from anxiety) last cycle, and am the same so far this cycle. Even so, I will be glad when I hit that last pill.

I've loved it so far! I had a headache last night and this morning, but I usually do anyway around ovulation. I've been pleasantly surprised with both my CM and lack of side effects. Here's hoping it keeps up and that you all have good luck with it too.

The best news came on Monday though at my monitoring u/s. My lining was just over 11 and I had one egg on each side: a 21 mm on the right and a 22 mm on the left. My RE said things could not have looked any better, which was of course music to my ears.

I did my first round the beginning of April with 50mg. The first day i took it I had really bad cramps but the rest of the days were fine. I ovulated a few days later than normal and the u/s they did on CD15 I was actually ovulating so they couldn't get a good number for follicles but I didn't have too many so that was good.

I start HCG injections today and have two more then test a week from tuesday.

I'm on day 3 of my first round and I have been okay.  I definitely have cramps and have had a headache on and off.  Most of all, I'm moody and emotional though.  My FI and I got in a big argument last night, and I definitely think my amplified hormones and emotions made things worse!

 

I guess we'll see what today brings, but hoping for a better day!

I'm on CD10 of my sixth round of Clomid. Some cramps on both sides, mainly the left, so I'm anxious for my monitoring tomorrow.

Not in my 1st  Clomid cycle, but start taking it again tonight. We are doing our 1st IUI, so I'm being cautiously optimistic. Since things have been so sh*tastic for us lately, I'll take a little luck thrown my way.

Hoping I respond well and those darn headaches can be kept at bay.

I'm on my third cycle of Clomid. My first cycle I had major cramps and a strong ovulation. My second cycle I had no side effects, but didn't ovulate. I'm now taking 150mg of Clomid and have been having crazy hot flashes! Overall, it's been a lot easier than I thought it would be. Good luck ladies!

I am in my 2ww window of my 4th cycle of clomid.  I actually had no s/e from the clomid this cycle, but the progesterone I am on now has a ton of crappy s/e that I am dealing with.  Actually, DH is mostly dealing with them since I am a crabby b!tch LOL

second cycle of Clomid for me and currently in the 2ww - i was fine during/right after taking the pills. i've had some bad headaches/tired the past week or so (AF due sometime in the next 3-4 days) but i don't think it worked. the last couple cycles i've had really sore bb's before AF and now nothing - so i don't think my progesterone levels are even high enough right now.

Today is CD11 of my 4th Clomid cycle.  I haven't had a great response in any cycle so I'm anxious to find out what my RE says tomorrow at my monitoring appointment.  I don't think I'm going to have any good follies because I don't feel any pressure or cramping like I have before.  I'm thinking he'll want to switch to injectables since this was probably my last cycle on Clomid.  But I've been feeling much better than I have on lower doses which is surprising since I took 150mg this cycle.  I was expecting to have increased side effects, but so far I feel fine.

I'm currently cd5 of my 5th Clomid cycle, 2nd post m/c.  No real side effects thus far.  Mine tend to kick in around cd6.

I'll be on pill number 4 tonight.  My Only side effect has been a bit of a headache and some hot flashes.  I was definitely prepared for it to be worse!

I'm on day 12 of my second Clomid cycle (still 50 mg).  I am much, much more emotional this cycle.  I don't know if it's because this month has been more stressful in general, so it's bringing it out more, or if it's just one of those things.  But, I have cried multiple times a day from day 6 on.  It's driving me crazy...
