Hi! My main tip would be to try and manage your expectations and not get disheartened if pregnancy doesn’t happen right away. Clomid can sometimes take a few cycles to work (it’s common to try it for 3-6 cycles), especially with PCOS. Also, tracking ovulation with tests or scans can really help you understand how your body is responding to the medication. Wishing you lots of luck for the new year – you’ve got this! Xx

@Dannielle thank you. I feel like my expectations are very low after 3 years of TTC. I have to book a scan for the first round but will defo be order some ovulation tests, do you recommend any brand?? ☺️

I completely understand, Katie—it’s so hard when you’ve been trying for so long, and Clomid feels like a new hope. Managing expectations is tough, but you’re not alone! 😊 For ovulation tests, I use the Easy@Home ones and find them really reliable and affordable. I also log everything on the Premom app, which makes it so much easier to track the patterns and identify the LH surge. You can test twice a day (midday and evening) as your fertile window approaches to make sure you don’t miss it. Also, remember that Clomid can sometimes make ovulation slightly later than expected, so keep testing and tracking BBT if you’re doing that too. Sending you lots of luck for this cycle! 💕 Feel free to ask if you’ve got any other questions—I’m in a very similar boat! Xx

Thank you! I’ve used them ones before so will order some more ☺️ Yes I will definitely do that, and keep my fingers crossed 🤞🏼
