Dianne, I'm very much like you! I think it's really nice and comforting to know that somebody else is going thru the exact same thing!
![]() Leah, that's great news! Don't worry about your lining, it will thicken up these few days. That was what mine did. Lots of baby dust! When are you planning to test HPT? ![]() ![]()

pumpkin! There you are! Do you get more s/e from a higher dosage? I've been feeling weird from Ovidrel....tender boobs and mild hot flashes in the middle of the night, plus I realized that I have to pee more frequently during the night now. So....yep, no sleeping thru the night ever since I'm on the drugs........but of coz, it's all worth it!!

I had minor hot flashes with the lower doses. I actually haven't experienced much of that on the higher dose, maybe every now and then. I feel really wired during the night tho, like really intense and hyper-sensitive to things. It's bizarre. But tolerable.
I hope this works.

Pumpkin ~ I couldn't imagine what SE you're having from 150mg! I took 100 and I had crazy hot flashes and some mood swings. Hang in there, it's all worth it to get where we need to go!
Sydney ~ OMG, I thought I was having bladder problems!!! I never even thought it was related to the Ovidrel, but it must be if you too are experiencing it! Thank God, I thought I was going to have to mention it to my gyn and really was embarrassed!!!! We are going through the exact same thing it seems!!! It's definitely comforting to know other people are going through the same thing so we realize we aren't crazy! ![]()

pumpkin, I hope it works this time for you too! Stay positive!
![]() ![]() Dianne, OMG, we're really experiencing all the same things, aren't we! But do tell your RE about your s/e next time you see her, becoz mine always asks me if I get any. Don't feel stupid, no question is stupid! And I bet they get lots of questions like these anyway!

Sydney,
I'm a little behind you (CD19) and haven't experienced that CM, so since I'm behind, I don't think it means it's abnormal. I'm not sure if this link will post, but I've posted questions for Drs on this site and have gotten answers in about 24 hours. Maybe you could post there too?

Dianne, thanks for the link!
![]() Pumpkin, why were you excited, if you don't mind me asking? Is creamy CM a sign of anything?

pumpkin, I see, but I've ovulated on CD17 already. Today is my CD24. That's why when I noticed creamy CM this late in my cycle, I'm a bit confused....

I was too. I looked it up and I read somewhere that sometimes before the onset of AF part of the uterine lining releases and looks like creamy CM, but that's not what it is. Maybe that's it? Or maybe it's part of the changes that occur in early pregnancy. Not sure!

Hello Ladies-
Dianne- did i read on your signature you have a blocked right tube? and your RE started you on 100mgs of clomid?! why? When I started clomid, I really hoped I would OV on both sides, but i only had one really big follicle. Did any of your REs say that it is usual to OV more than one? I asked my RE, and he said it doesnt matter what dose you take, it will not make you OV more.. kinda disapointing to me. I also heard about the EWCM at the end of your cycle. It is an early sign of pregnancy, i believe. I have had it too. I am on CD 3 today, and just started my 2nd round of clomid... Good luck to you all! ![]()

Gianna,
I still have my left tube to ovulate from and it's possible (although unlikely) that my left tube can go over and grab an egg from the right ovary. I'm hoping just my left side will work, but it would truly be a miracle if I happen to only have eggs on my right to become pregnant. My understanding is an increased amount of Clomid can help you produce more follicles. But it can make the lining thin sometimes. I think I can't go above 100mg for that reason. Otherwise, I'm not sure why they'd increase it for anyone. I only had 1 follicle on each side, but it only takes one!!!! ![]() CD3, so you're starting your Clomid today, yay! Good luck to you, keep us posted!!!
