I guess if I'm going to do this....

I should really post something! I started the blog for my entertainment and so I'll have something to look back at and laugh one day...because sometimes its just not so funny while you are going through it. So to recap the last month....



I returned to the dr. in early June to have to test done to see why we have not had success yet. She agreed that 6mo. of trying was enough to give me some help. She ran some blood tests confirming that I don't ovulate in all my cycles (at least that one anyhow). She said we could just keep trying or I could start the low doss of clomid. She wrote me the scrips and left it up to me. Some people might say we really had not been trying that long but after a good amount of research I decided to give it a go.



My "period" arrived and on the third day I started my first doss. We happen to be at the beach and of course right after I took it I thought all the bad side effects would happen and I would be miserable to be around. I'm guessing I am pretty lucky that I really had little side effects compared to other stories I've read. Except can we say



HOT FLASHES!!!



I will never make fun of my mother again for going through hot flashes. They are no joke! At first it was just night sweats. Which, while they interrupted my sleep I would just to get my husband to lay on the other side of the bed and get the 20lb fur ball of a cat to cuddle something else, I could live with that. What is not so fun is being in a meeting at work and feeling like someone turned the heat up to 110! Yes, I hear prego women say it always feels like that all the time (thus the "glow"), I'm not so much complaining about it but its a bit embarrassing when you just break out in a sweat for no apparent reason to the average on looker.



So it is now day 17...11 days to testing! I am determined to wait until day 28....ok at least day 25.
