This is the longest 2 weeks of my life... (PG mentioned)

CammiesMom · 10-16-2007, 03:47 AM

I just wanted to vent a little...but i swear every cycle after O is the longest two weeks of my life, just to be dissapointed once again...this is my first clomid cycle, after trying for almost a year without it, and i'm trying to be cautiously optimistic since the last time i took clomid it only took 1 cycle and i was pg with DD...i feel twinges, and crampy and bloaty and full, i have backaches and fatigue and yesterday i was in a horrible mood...and my temps, i swear i hate taking them...like yesterday and thismorning, i actually took my temp twice, one right after another, and got temps that were .3 higher each time...and i only took them twice because they were a little lower than i wanted them to be so maybe i thought that if i took it again they'd go up to where i wanted them, and low and behold they did LOL! But now i dont know which ones to use...how can it go up that far that fast...i must have been half asleep the first time i'm assuming... Trying to remember what pgncy was like with DD at the beginning is rediculous. I keep trying to remember how i felt and i cant remember feeling anything different at all, but i had a chemical pgncy a few months ago and i remember being tired right off the bat...i know all pgncies are different even for the same woman, but its driving me nuts. I could go on for hours but i'll stop here...thanks for letting me vent... and here's my chart, feel free to look at it and send me some reassuring words... LOL!!

Hey there! We feel your pain! IF ttc is nothing but waiting ... waiting to O, waiting to test, waiting for AF to come (if not pg), waiting for test results, waiting for doctor appointments, etc. Very frustrating!

That said, maybe the Clomid is just what you needed.

As for your temps, one thing you could do is just not take them for the rest of your luteal phase. Some women stop after determining O because it's just too draining -- or nerve-wracking! On the other hand, some women go crazy not knowing what their temps are doing (that's how I was when ttc). It's all what helps you feel the most relaxed and sane during the insanity that is IF ttc!

Good luck and let us know how things are going!
