Oh no pink rose. I also told them I didn't want my gp knowing, although there's nothing they can do even if they do get informed! I hope it all goes ok and you get your clomid.

Frilly lady did they send you an email or did they just prescribe you the clomid? I'm hoping they decide to send me it, I need some luck!
Within an hour of ordering I received an email confirmation of my order, then the following day I received an email saying my order was being processed and would be dispatched shortly! Fingers crossed for you Pink.
I got it without them querying and I know of someone else on here who did too. I take it the clomid you have is no use?
I'll just keep my fingers crossed and hope for the best, I did receive a confirmation of my order yesterday after ordering it, but then today I received that email. Hopefully I get it!
I live in US... anywhere to get it online here?

Hi! I've been doing a lot of research about this the past week and I'm really coming up empty handed. It seems like any sites we could get it from in the US are super shady and illegal. The Oxford site previous posters were taking about doesn't do consultations for the US. The online consultations are a legal (ish) way to skirt the law and get it without a script and unfortunately I have not been able to find anything like that in the states. Let me know if you have any luck! I've been looking up soy isoflavones which are supposed to work kind of like a natural clomid and you don't need a script, but it seems like its been swaying more blue because it increases your CM :( so thats a super bummer.Quote:

Could I go to my OB and tell her I have been trying since November (sort of true) and get a scrip for it? Or do you have to go through testing?

Hi girls
I placed order on oxford pharmacy and got confirmation email and an email saying my prescription was being processed, so hopefully should arrive soon without any questions.
What's everyone's typical daily diet like on le?
Xx
Hi ladies I still have heard no word back from the pharmacy since Saturday so I don't know weather I'm going to get it or not. I'm very anxious as I'd love to use it for my sway. Hope yours are all doing well I'm just tired of eating the same foods on the diet especially with the holidays here!
Hope you hear soon!
I am thoroughly fed up of the diet now too, I'm cheating a couple of times a week now going above limits (although it's still way less than I was eating before) I spend most days thinking about all the food I'll be eating when I'm off the diet! Pretty pathetic I know, i just love food and absolutely love red meat!
I could have written this myself minus the meat, I don't eat it! The strange thing is I'm not normally a big eater but when I deny myself something it's all I think about. When I had my two boys many years ago I hardly ate anything so for me to eat less I would have to starve. I'm really feel I'm fighting a loosing battle and this is all just a waste of time, especially at my age.Quote:

Frilly I'm like you I hardly ate anything when I had my boys so I feel like no matter what I do it will never work that's why I went hi tech! I feel like I'm running out of time and it causes me great anxiety & stress I almost can't cope thinking I will never have a daughter.
I'm also relaxed on the diet but trying to do the best I can and I never ate red meat.
I have just had success with the online pharmacy but I said they could tell my gp. From reading what they say they won't prescribe without telling your gp. So maybe just let them, your gp probably won't take much notice of the letter anywayQuote:

Is anyone else trying with their clomid this month? I think I'll be on cd3 Monday, should I take it before bed? So nervous.
My craving is usually for chocolate, unfortunately where I work I look down into a shops chocolate aisle!!!
Good luck EnglishDame, I start my clomid in about 3ish weeks!
Good Luck to you too! I'll let you all know on this thread how the side effects go!
Hi I was hoping to start clomid this month but I've still heard nothing from the pharmacy. I always took it at night before I went to bed to try and sleep off some of the side effects. If I get it I will take it days 3 - 7 if not I think I will try and get it here.
Chocolate my biggest craving I have to allow myself some or I couldn't survive the diet I tried liquorice sweets to see if they killed the craving nothing tastes like chocolate lol!
Good luck with the clomid English Dame hopefully you don't get to many side effects!
Have you tried to contact them again? They're normally quick so maybe you should see what's happening with it incase they didn't get your email or something? Good luck!
Well today is officially cd1, thought it would have been yesterday. So Tuesday I take the first pill, so nervous! Is it better to take it with food or just take it on its own before bed?
Hi girls I got an email on Friday saying my order is being processed by the pharmacy and if there is anymore information required they will contact me. I checked my account and they took the money so I'm hoping it will be on its way.
That's great!
Will you be trying this month?
Yes I will be taking clomid this month to sway. I can't keep putting it off or I will never feel my sway is good enough. I was just reading that on the pcos diet we stay below 150g I go above that most days, the more I read the more confused and get and the more I keep putting my sway off.
I'm eating twice a day, coffee, alcohol, exercise and clomid so I need to focus on the changes I've made and start ttc. I've been on the le diet and then changed to the pcos diet so long now I feel I go with the flow and could be a lot more strict.
I look around me every day at the people who have girls and I just wonder how they got them so easy with out all this lol
I honestly feel exactly the same. I've made so many changes, massive changes to how I normally eat and I've been exercising too. I've been adding in coffee but not alcohol (I will drink alcohol this cycle but haven't been up until now). I've only been eating twice a day and having a long overnight fast. At the end of the day it comes down to luck too so even a perfect sway could fail. I just can't wait to be pregnant now so my diet can get back to normal! I also feel that we've been putting ttc off so long we could've been pregnant by now and if I keep looking for the perfect sway before we try we'll never do it!
I too look around at mums of girls and think how can people get so lucky! But then I know people with 2 or more girls who would love a boy and would think the same about us. One of my friends has 4 girls and eats all the time so I do think sometimes it comes down to your hormone make up (hopefully clomid will help us with that!)
Crossing my fingers for us both!
That's good to hear you finally got it Pinkrose!
Good luck EnglishDame, hope you get get your bfp very soon.
I had a total meltdown this morning, this dg is getting to me big time like it never has before. My poor dh has been through so much with me these past 6 years I could never thank him enough. You'd think after 5 failed ht cycles and over two years on and off trying naturally I would have got the hang of it and mellowed a little. I think it's all just hit me big time and I feel at my age (42) I've got to somehow come to terms with never having my dg and trying to move forward. But damn it's hard, very hard emotionally and physically, and it's starting to take it's toll on me. I live in a fantastic part of the country with two great boys, well men now actually, who've been so easy to bring up, a fantastic dh who's gone along with everything without a cross word, and I have a job I love. So I know how very very lucky and blessed I am, I just need to step out of this emotional bubble I've been encased in, give myself a damn good shaking and start getting on with my life now my life is moving into its next stage.
Sorry for the rant I just needed to get it out. I'm giving myself two more tries with clomid then that's it finished! :smoke:
How are you getting on with the clomid? Any side affects?Quote:

I definitely have a slight headache but nothing too bad so who knows if that's even to do with the clomid. Generally so far so good but it has only been one pill. I'm so nervous about this month!
Frilly just reading your post terrifies me because I feel exactly the same, I just don't know how to move on in life without my daughter. Coming from high tech and then trying to sway is extremely hard because I feel you want to do everything perfect to achieve your dream, I'm in the same situation.
I just hope that no matter where we end up we find peace at the end of this journey and I know no matter how good the other things in life we have are, it's hard to step to the outside and look in when you feel the desperation and longing for a daughter you want so badly.
I'm thinking of you and hoping this works out for you plenty of people in my family have had babies at 41/42 so please don't give up hope! I would love to feel the contentment of having a daughter and get rid of all this anxiety, worry, stress, desperation and longing that I've felt for so long. I just hate it.
Sticking to the diet and exercise doesn't help it can be hard at times.
I don't know weather to start my clomid this month as I'm going on holiday and I will be cheating a bit but will only be there two days when I have my attempt.
Thanks Pink rose, it's all just so hard to deal with, I thought it would get easier but it's not. I'm finding the diet really difficult this time to stick to, I think it's because I feel so down I want to be able to eat nice things to make me feel a little happier. We're going on holiday soon too so I'm starting next month, if I haven't given up by then! I hope you have a lovely holiday and get your bfp very soon. X
Fx all your sways work ladies.. i found swaying more stressful than ht as you dont have control with ht.. i hope all your dreams come true..dont give up hope xxx
I think that's one of the nice things about this forum is it's a place where you can be honest about gender desire/disappointment without judgement.
I agree with the things you girls have said, I just always pictured my life with girls. My dh only wants 2 children and realistically it's a good number for us but if we have a boy I know none of the other reasons will matter and I'll want to try again. The reality is though we could have 10 kids and they could all be boys because we have no control. My dh is 100% against us going ht because although he would like a girl he doesn't feel the way I do and thinks it's far too expensive and stressful to consider.
I really hope we all get our dg, fiveboys I love your story it gives me so much hope!
Thanks fiveboys, if I wasn't too old I would definitely stick with ht as I find swaying far harder both physically and emotionally. On paper swaying looks much easier and atomic certainly makes things so easy for us to understand and follow but I just can't seem to stick to the eating this time around. I think I know in my head I'm probably not going to try again as I just can't stop eating the wrong things and I eat so much more now than I did when I was younger and had the boys. So I feel it's not likely to work as I could never go back to eating that little. I used to miss so many meals back then, sometimes only having a yogurt all day and I still managed to get boys.Quote:

I feel done from this whole thing I've have gd from I had my first son so long ago it doesn't get any easier.
I felt high tech drained everything I had I couldn't believe I give it everything I had including money and we walked away with nothing! The secrecy and everything surrounding it I found really hard I may have thought different if I'd have been lucky.
Frilly I also ate very little when I concieved my boys and did tones of cardio I'm just not sure how this is going to work for me but I can't continue on not trying, I guess I'm just looking to feel some peace and contentment from within fingers crosssed all our sways work and I've read so many perfect ones failing and more relaxing ones work out.
Try not to worry about eating treats here and there frilly I do it to but we are only human and when under pressure to achieve something so bad we mentally set ourselves up for failure to protect our emotions.
I just found this thread! I'm hoping that all of your sways are successful! After swaying and getting our beloved DS3, I believe Clomid, one attempt (via BDing E3D or E4D), and staying in the LE diet limits to be what brought us our DD. I also drank caffeinated coffee and alcohol (white wine or hard seltzer) helped too. I got pregnant the next cycle after my last Clomid dose. My RE said that Clomid takes 8-10 weeks to clear from your system.
🤞🏻so hard for all of you!!

Congratulations on your girl xx it must feel amazing for your sway to work. Were you very strict or did you take a more relaxed approach to your sway?
I'm going on holiday at the end of the month and due to ovulate a few days later, I know I will have some cheats as I will be away with family and it will be hard not to. Do you think I should keep my clomid until next month rather than take it now and cheat around the time I ovulate? Any advice girls I really want this sway to work so bad!
Thank you! I stuck to the limits but ate whatever I wanted, which was my only compromise. I had to eat meat at times because of family events or vacations. I just made sure to stay in the limits and ate mainly vegetarian. As far as cheats, I always had whatever I wanted the first 3 days of AF. I didn't worry too much about my sway, because I didn't think I would get pregnant. My BFP came 12mo after starting to TTC! Plus, my DH took forever to warm up to having a 4th child. I also had to stop exercise the cycle prior to getting my BFP due to being under too much stress of my DS2 needing surgery.
Just do what you can that gets the best results: LE diet with sticking to the limits, exercise (if you can manage it), one attempt either way, coffee, alcohol, and of course Clomid. This is a fab sway!
