my journey...

well, i have been ttc since february...but I am really going to start counting from may. :)

I went to the dr earlier this month (april) and apparently I don't ov. I am back on bcp to get my period and she put me on metformin as well. Once I get my period, I will start clomid days 3-7! Yikes!

I am SOOOO excited and I am surprisingly optimistic! I am usually a little more "glass half empty!"

I am having some side effects from metformin, mainly sick to my stomach, but also extremely thirsty!

I am very nervous about the clomid side effects!

Here's hoping to a first round pregs!!!



I will update anyone who is interested on the progress, the hurdles, etc...i am usually a very open book!

However, I am having a hard time talking about this with friends because some aren't ttc and others don't really understand the medicine part!

my twin sis went through the same thing i am now for baby #1 (and baby #2 was an unexpected fun surprise!)so i can talk to her too.

Anyway, I am here to learn, share, and hear what everyone else is going through!

Babydust to all!

HELLO and welcome!!

Sorry to hear about having trouble with ovulation, glad to hear that you are more positive than usual. I always get excited and feel more positive when I begin a new treatment. Don't be too nervous about the Clomid side effects. Some women don't experience any, I had headaches and was moody with a lack of patience but nothing that was worth not giving it a try. I have been ttc for about a year now with unexplained infertility, I will begin injections next cycle. It's nice that you can talk about this with your sister because it is hard for others who aren't going through this to understand how it really makes us feel. I'm lucky that I have a few friends who know exactly what I am going through and of course everyone on here is a big help (hubby is too :O) Lots and lots of luck to you--sending you *********BABY DUST**********

On day 1 today...i have been on metformin for about a month. I start my first round of 50mg of Clomid on Sunday morning! I am REALLY hoping to get a BFP on the first shot! ha! ...patience is not a virtue i have when it comes to conceiving! :)

thanks for asking Jen!! I did the first round of clomid this month...no side effects during, but really sad and moody for a couple days after. Today is cd 21 and i never got a +opk :( I am really sad about that, but trying not to get too down about it! There's always next month, right!?

How about you???

I don't know if I actually have PCOS or not...my hormones tend to be normal, but I don't ov on my own, and I get cysts!

Good luck Livia! Hopefully the metformin will help out this time!

Thanks TTCwIUI! I actually did get pregnant on 50mg of clomid, but we miscarried. I am now waiting to be able to try again, but it may be several months :(

Good luck to you!
