    First injection wasn't too bad. Thanks for the tips Floaty. Got the husband to do them. Did feel sore and couldn't sleep on my side. Today had my second one which hurt more and a bit sore when I bend. Think after each one i should lie down for at least an hour and then that will help.
    Thanks about the exercise I emailed the hospital who haven't got back to me

    Can people that are clomid/ have been on clomid give me an idea of what to expect please? I want to warn the OH if I am going to become a raging monster of doom.
    Remember never judge someone that makes a mistake, because in six months time it may be you that makes the next mistake.

    Hi vesper,

    Hope you don't mind me delurking but I still read this board most days! I took clomid from February until June last year. I felt fine but a little emotional and bloated. My husband however later told me that I turned into an unreasonable wreck :o

    I am fully aware it doesn't work for everyone but it did for us and the side effects were well worth it as I am now 35 weeks with twins.

    I pray daily for all the ladies on this board to get the miracle babies you deserve x

    Hi all, hope you are doing well.

    Just to say I'm back and will lurk again if that's ok with you.

    Sadly lost another pregnancy at 8 weeks despite taking progesterone and aspirin so had another ERPC last Wednesday.

    So that's now 3 miscarriages in 12 months (I think I've had a 4th but NHS doesn't agree) but at least they will now start investigations.

    Appointment booked for 17th February at the recurrent miscarriage clinic.

    Just delurking for Gelly, I'm so sorry to hear your news. We were on the TTC thread at the same time last year.


    I also had miscarriage number 4 whilst on Progesterone and aspirin two weeks ago. So if you want to PM me for a chat or just to vent please do. I know exactly what you are going through.


    I'm not sure if your EPAS/EPU offer support meetings, if they do I really recommend it.


    Take care x
  • Oh no Gelly, so sorry to hear.


    Sending hugs and caring thoughts your way, and to you Jay

    Take care of yourselves xxx

    So went to the IVF clinic for my five day scan and I have quite a lot of follicles. Going in on sunday to get a new scan and to see if they need to decrease FSH amount. Have a bad feeling I might OHSS. The guy I spoke to was saying they need to closely examine me but we shall see what happens
