Hi ladies,

It's been a long time since i've posted. I've just been lurking and reading the good news and not-so-good news on the boards. As for myself I've been ttc-ing for about 2 yrs now. This was my first cycle on clomid 50 mg cycle days 5-9. I induced my period using provera and now i am 10dpo. I'm just really nervous right now and i definately need a listening ear. The symptoms i have could be in my head, but who knows. Anyway since about 3 or 4 dpo my nipples have been really sore to the touch, i've been quite tired lately, and when i pee i feel a pulling sensation in my lower abdomen. I also had some cramping about 5dpo. Anyway, i don't want to test at all because i can't stand to see another bfn. Is it too early to test? my cycle is due on the 5 of oct. Please tell me what to do.

Technically, 10DPO is probably fine to test with an "early" HPT, but you still have a good chance of a false negative (if you are PG). If you're like me, and can't stand to look at another BFN, I'd suggest waiting!

Clomid can cause lots of weird things in our body - I've gotten strange CM patterns, sore breasts, tired, etc., all without being PG. That doesn't mean you're not PG... just that the symptoms are really hard to nail down. If the waiting is killing you, you might ask your doctor for a Beta HCG test.

Also, here's a good link to the Clomid/Ovulation Induction board here at iVillage - feel free to stop by sometime to say hi!
