I think it's normal. It sounds like it.

This month I've had nothing but side effects from my Clomid.. I usually don't get side effects and if I do, it's not like this. I'm nauseous, I have hot flashes, and I'm moody.

Good Luck everyone!!
Today is a sad day  
Our 2nd attempt at IUI failed- AF came today  
I have a apt with the RE today to discuss further options
IVF is out of the question for us- they want $8,000 up front and no financing.
I'm still staying strong- I went to a psychic last summer and everything she has said has came true, she said we would get pregnant late this year, so I guess I have 2 more months to get it right

Here's the picture. One is on my mantel, and the other is on my kitchen table. I had seashells in them over the summer but just took them out because I'm filling them with pinecones, and once Christmsa comes I'll do the bulbs.

So sorry hun *Hugs!* Praying for you everyday.

Thanks guys!!!
Don't think I'm not following you guys- I am! I stay so busy working all week and doing photography on the side I don't have time to post all the time. I wish my life would just slow down sometimes, but it doesn't I don't have time to grieve every month anymore like I use to, but I guess that is a good thing? To me every month of ttc and not getting pregnant is like apart of me dies, but I gotta stay strong and tell myself it will happen. Sorry of I seem like a bother I just have to vent sometimes.

Another vent- I hate being in a room with pregnant women- its so depressing!

Have you been experiencing any constipation or other gastrointestinal fun stuff?
I've been super constipated and crampy (at the belly button line) and have been getting a lot of twinges and semi-sharp pains on my left side. I was worried about the possibility of ectopic (even though the chance is almost non existent) but I now know for sure it's not. I'm thinking it may have been my colon.

I hope your u/s went well today!

Will they not try Femara instead? Women seem to have a lot less side effects on that.

I'm sorry.   We've exhausted all of our savings and much of my parents' with IVF. If your insurance is covering it though, keep going with IUI!

YAY everything is good!! Baby is measuring 6wk1d which is only 2 days behind what we thought but he said it's a matter of like 1/10th of an inch or something and it's nothing to worry about. We DID get to see the heartbeat, 109 bpm which he said was a little low but he expects that to jump drastically on my next scan. He said my left ovary looks like it could be the cause of the pain and he thinks its still a little over stimulated due to the stims i was on. I am SO glad to have the good news and to be able to see the heartbeat. I just wish my hubby was there to see it   I got a bunch of pics printed off and we get to go back Nov 1 for another scan.

O we will- just came back from the RE and he wants us to take this month off and wants me to go have a hystersolipongram to check and see if my tubes may have a blockage- he doesn't think so but he wants to take all precautions. As for the next cycle he wants me to start the Repronex injections, clomid and hcg injection. He said he would treat me like I was having IVF but using IUI instead. So maybe just maybe that will do the trick. I hate waiting though!!

It's good that he's changing up your protocol!
