having symptoms 5dpo

[mommiehopeful2013]

Hi, I know it should be too early to have symptoms but we have been TTC and I just haven’t felt my normal self the last few days so I thought I would post what’s been going on and see what you ladies think. A little background I have PCOS, do not ovulate on my own and was on 100mg of Clomid and then did a 5000mg Trigger Shot of Noveral (spelling) on July 3rd the husband and I DTD Tuesday and Wednesday. I had real sharp pains on Tuesday and assumed it was just ovulation pains. Since late Thursday I have had cramps they started out light and on the right side, which is where I had two follicles that were decent size, they moved across my lower abdomen and have settled in the middle. The cramps will increase in pressure throughout the day and rang from just dull and achy to a pulling feeling. Saturday night during dinner I got a little nausea but it passed quickly. This morning I woke up and was on the dizzy side, as well as still having cramps. I also have a headache and have been nauseas during the day. I do not cramp before AF comes to visit and as far as I know I haven’t been around anyone who has been ill. I have taken 3 HPT, knowing that if it was positive it would most likely be a false positive do to the trigger shot on Tuesday. All of them were positive and the line hasn’t decreased in intensity of color. I go for a blood test on Wed at 7:30am.
So what do you ladies think, after 12 years of TTC does it seem like I might finally be pregnant? Thanks all.

Is this your first cycle with Clomid, or have you been on it before? I ask because Clomid can make you feel like you are pregnant, even when you aren't. I've done three Clomid/trigger shot/IUI cycles, and the second cycle I had a chemical pregnancy. I could definitely feel cramping around 7dpIUI and it felt like I could feel implantation happening. Nausea happened a little further on, definitely after 10dpIUI. I wasn't feeling anything at 5dpIUI, though, that still seems a bit early but of course everyone is different.

Gwenn~ No this is my third cycle on Clomid

I am trying not to get my hopes up and trying not to think about it so I don't drive myself nuts and just wait till wed.

It's hard not to get your hopes up.

If you're feeling different than other cycles, though, chances are good something different is happening! Good luck!

This was my 1st clomid cycle and I'm having many of the same symptoms and AF has not showed yet. I'm late but will wait a few more days to test just because sometimes my cycle is off due to changes in thyroid med. I just want to wish you the best of luck. Hope you get good newst on Wed.
