Clomid

I have been on clomid for two months now and waiting for AF on Mon. Crossing my fingers. I have had side effects this month that the doctors didn't tell us we may experience. The weirdest one was flashes of light.But just wanted to let all of you know if you receive a HCG shot to ovulate don't take a pregnancy test before the 14 day period. Luckily I didn't test postive but you can from the hormone but it would be a false postive.

There are so many things they don't tell you, sometimes I wonder if its all worth it. This month I have been depressed and sore breasts so I still have hope but its hard to hope so hard every month. Can't stand the question. Are you pregnant yet? Like its my choice not to be.

Thanks for listening.

At last

I meet my husband 6 years ago, 2 months after meeting we began to try for a child, each month we would try, I knew the best time to 'fall' pregnant was between day 12 to day 16. Nothing happened. After 2 years we began clomid for 6 months with natural timing, nothing happened, for 3 months we tried clomid with scans and a trigger shot at the clinic nothing happened.

Then we began IUI. This was 4 and a half years after we began trying. I injected myself each month, did scan after scan, found to have 5 follies and here in Ireland they will not let you go ahead with more then 2. So they removed 3 follies and destroyed them and we went ahead with the 2 follies. I tested on my due day, negative, I'd had enough, my husband had had enough, I was 34 and he was 46, we had looked into adoption alone the way.

Finally we agreed to perhaps try another IUI. I waited for my period to start the injecting once more. And I waited...I had one pregnancy test left and tested at work...and there it was, that beautiful beautiful blue line.

Our son is 5 months old now. The most precious gift ever, we tried IUI 3 months ago abut it failed and have just finished another IUI so am waiting on the 2 week wait. However, I am very very very happy with my little boy.

We kept trying

Well, when my husband and I had been married for about 9 months, we wanted to try for a baby. I was 28, he was 30. I became pregnant a few months later, but then had some brownish discharge and went in for an ultrasound. At 11 weeks the scan showed that there was no fetal heartbeat and no fetal pole, just a sac. The doctor said I had a "missed miscarriage". I went in and had a D&C.

After that experience, month after month, I'd keep track of when I was ovulating and that was pretty much all I could think about everday. I would wonder when would be the best days to try on. We wanted a baby SO bad. Well, month after month turned into about 2 years. I went to the doctor explaining our situation and then got some bloodwork done... everything came back normal.

The doctor told me to take prenatal vitamins, so I did. I also found out that I had a tilted uterus, so I would actually lay on my stomach after TTC which I heard works if you have that problem. I also prayed everynight to become pregnant. Well, about 2.5 months after that Dr. appointment, I got the positive pregnancy test! I knew my breasts were kind of different feeling, but I really did not think I was pregnant. Well, I was.

We now have Gabriel, the most beautiful 5 month old baby boy! He was full term weighing 8.5. I know it's so easy to say to not give up hope, but just try to have hope. If it's meant, it will happen.
