hi guys !Thought id share the fabulous news of my conception . i removed the loop around 2 months ago and i am now 5 weeks pregnant . i didnt realise it would happen so fast. i am exited to be having my seventh baby and hope that all goes well like the previous 6.i am new in australia , been here for only 1 year in perth but spent 2 years in melbourne in 1997 and 98 . my second child was born in melbourne at the royal womens and it was a good experience.i am not sure which hospital to go to so if anyone has some idea i would really appreciate the input.my last four babies were delivered by c-section so i presume this one would be too.

If you are taking Clomid just to try for twins, I wouldn't recommend it.  That is not what it's intended for.  I'm sure your dr. wouldn't prescribe it for that reason.  You've 6 children already.  There is nothing to suggest you'd have any trouble conceiving.  I really wouldn't suggest Clomid for you.  What if you had like triplets or quads.   Multiples are high risk pregnancys you wouldn't want to put yourself or your babies at risk just to "rush things up" a bit.  Slow down.

Hi.  I have just started taking Clomid.  Trying for baby number one and am on my first cycle taking a low dosage of 50mg.  I did a lot of research before taking it - but it all looks ok.  It is the most common fertility drug apparently, and your doctor should do some blood tests and scans in your first month to monitor you.  Reading these forums lots of people talk about side effects such as moodiness etc.  But why do you need Clomid if you have conceived six children already?
