I conceived my daughter on my first month of 50 mg. Clomid after TTC for 3
years. I did not have any side effects at all. It did however take about 1
week after my missed period to show positive. So no, you're not jumping the
gun. As a matter of a fact, I had also been temping and the one month I
took Clomid, my doctor told me not to. I hope this gives you some peace of
mind.
