Hello Ladies!
somedaysoon and JamieNix~I find that the Clomid has made me have way more natural lubricant. I haven't had to use any artificial lubes at all during my cycle. Many times I had so much CM it was on my underwear (tmi I know!). Very interesting to hear that most women seem to become dry because it truly is opposite for me. My dh loves it!
Even though I used my fertility monitor and I'm charting my temperature we still have been every second day since cd3 and my first day of Clomid.
I have read it quite often that women ovulate much later in their cycle then usual. Don't panic yet. You may have missed it on a test as well. There is ALWAYS a chance that you can conceive every time you and your dh .
Clivencleo~Around ovulation I experienced some cramping and bloating.
Have a fantastic weekend everyone!

I was literally jumping for joy last night. I got my first positive opk on a cheapie, then verified it with a digital one. I took a picture and posted it, titled Clomid Round 1 CD14. No temperature change yet this morning, but cramps are stronger today, not unbearable, just uncomfortable. The cramps and tightness seem to have increased in the last 2hrs. I woke up with a bit of a headache today, also am having some lower back pain. DH and I didn't get to BD til one in the morning because we had company over, but willl again tonight just to make sure we catch the egg(s). The pain is definitely near my overaries. I used the preseed internally and it did seem to make a difference. I have some evening primrose oil that I had been using a couple cycles ago, and it did seem to give me more CM, if I don't get pregnant this round I will try it for the next cycle. Praying for a little clomid baby this round. Hoping that this pain is normal, and not caused by any cysts. My OB did tell me that clomid can cause cysts.
I forgot to add that yesterday morning I had a bit of a sore throat and my chest kinda felt a little congested... It only lasted for half of the day... Not sure if that has anything to do with any of this, just thought I'd put it out there.

Thank you Lisserb. I think you're right and that it is only O pain. My ovaries feel tight and full, nothing extreme. Very thankful for that too, atleast I know that the clomid is doing its job. Thank you for your kind wishes too. I wish the best for you also. I'm very thankful to have all of you ladies to relate to on this journey. Good luck girls!

Hi Ladies~I have been having EXTREME dizzy spells everyday. The dizziness lasts around one or two minutes but it feels very intense, as though I could faint. It happens around 2 to 4 times a day and I could be sitting or standing when it happens. Has anyone else experienced this? I'm on cd26. I'm starting to get worried about it because I'm not sure if it's due to the Clomid or something else. I did have regular blood tests (cbc, iron, etc) done in addition to the progesterone blood test on cd21 and those results were great. (not sure what the progesterone result is though). I was already experiencing the dizziness when I went for the blood work so I really don't think it could be low blood sugar or anything because that would have showed up in the regular blood test results. Your help and advice is much appreciated as always!

Happy Monday to all..

Babylove9 - I have read that dizziness and lightheadedness is one of the common side effects. I have not had any myself, but I am only on my first round of clomid. Sorry to hear about that dizziness that you've been having. I hope it gets better for you soon. Whatever it takes to get our little baby though, right? Hang in there hun!
AFM - I'm almost positive that Saturday (CD15) (St.Patrick's Day ) was ovulation day. That was when the cramps were the worst. The following morning I had my temperature rise, and it is still up today. Yesterday, I had very mild cramps, was nothing compared to Saturday. Today, I am only have very slight pressure. My nips have seemed a bit sensitive today and yesterday, and I've also had some creamy CM both today and yesterday. A little bit of a sore/flemy throat this morning (but that could be due to sleeping with a fan on for this last week and having the windows open). No other symptoms as of 2 DPO. The two week wait has begun.
Big to my cycle buddy, Clivencleo!

has anyone had any success from clomid??

Day 4 of Clomid, so far so good-ish. I have had a lot of hot flashes and been very crabby with a short fuse (poor DH) but other than that...feeling ok!
Question for everyone as I had a bit of a panic attack that maybe I ovulated SUPER early after starting the Clomid...does it cause a rise in your typical BBT?
Normally my BBT is low, like around 96.6-96.8 and than after ovulation (on the rare occasion I do ovulate) it goes over 97. Since I started Clomid it has been rising...96.63-96.8-97.05-97.18
Is this normal for clomid?

~~Mommywannabe26....... I just ready your post. Waking up in the middle of the night with hot and cold flashes is very normal when you are on clomid and even after you have finished taking the 5 days worth.
There is definately success from clomid.
DH and I tried for 9 months after I had a tubal reversal. I am 35 years old and overweight, so they told me that my age and weight definately adding to trying to conceive after a tubal reversal. I started clomid in January. First round was a BFN but second round was a BFP. I am not 5 weeks 2 days pregnant. I definately say that the success of my pregnancy had to do with the clomid.
I also have been taking:
Baby Aspirin 81mg every day
mucinex with guaufessien about 2 days before ovulation through ovulation.
I used the instead soft cup after BDing.
Preseed (injected) before BDing
And take theranatal prenatal vitamins.
Today, I go to my first dr's appointment to ensure that I am not having a tubal pregnancy as I am very high risk for this. But, I definately contribute the fact of being pregnant to clomid. Dont give up and Baby Dust to you!
