I have never been on one of these sites before and it has really helped me reading all of your thoughts. It has been one year now that I have been trying and I am on the emotional roller coaster that so many of you are also on. I have an appt on Monday with an ER, fingers are crossed that will help. I'm on my 2nd month of clomid at 100 this round. I wish you all the best :)

Hi Kelly,

I have been trying about the same amount of time as you with several failed IUI's, I am going to be starting Clomid shortly if you would like a Clomid buddy...

Hi Alexa!

Yes, a buddy in this depressing time would be great! What dose of clomid are they starting you at? My nurse practioner got pregnant on 150 so I keep that hope alive. How old are you? Im 28. Im here if for your stories if you would like to share. :)

Hi Kelly,

I am starting my Clomid on Sunday night I haven't picked up my pills yet but the instructions was to take 2 pills before bedtime so I am guessing they are ea. 50mg
to make it 100mg, I have been on Clomid before and conceived so I know it does work....

I am nervous about the side effects I had headaches when I took clomid and it made me very edgy but I kept to myself to prevent any urges to be mean..LOL

How were the side effects for you, have you started your new cycle yet? it would be nice to compare our progress... :)

Hi Alexa -

I am on 100. The first month was 50 and I felt dizzy or goofy but that was my only side affect. This month I took it with food at lunch time and I felt great the whole time. We are in trying mode right now as I think its time - lol, I thought it was time the last 12 months too. You can email me if you like too, believe1978@wi.rr.com. I understand too if you prefer the site. This is all new to me!

Hi Kelly,

Are they monitoring you, I am adding an IUI to this cycle
they were really putting me on Clomid to do a Challenge test to see how I respond if I refused the IUI I don't think they were willing to monitor my follicles they just wanted to check for my hormone levels with Clomid...

I took them at night so I could sleep off some of the misery along with Clomid I do remember after finishing up the 5 days my headaches were gone...

I will email you!
