Clomid: All done!

I took my last Clomid yesterday. I still haven't had any of the horrible side effects I've read about. It makes me wonder if the Clomid is even doing anything.

In a completely unrelated topic, I get to go to the doctor every Tuesday for the next 3 weeks. This week is our RE appointment, then next week I get to have some moles removed, then the next week is my annual. Oh the joy. I decided to take the night off work next Tuesday since I'm not sure how much the mole removal will hurt and one of the ones being removed is on my lower back. I'm guessing it won't be much fun to sit in a desk chair with my clothes rubbing against it all night so I'm taking a sick day. I checked my last pay stub and I have over 140 hours of sick leave saved up so I figure I might as well use some since it doesn't look like I'll be needing any for maternity leave any time soon.

Clomid: Day 4

Day 4 of Clomid and really still no side effects. I've been tired but that could be because I haven't been sleeping well. I think I'm too excited about this cycle. Last night at work I had a slight headache that would come and go. Other than that, nothing.

Ashton and I went to the library yesterday. It was his first time at the library (that he remembers) and he really enjoyed picking out some books. He got two about World War II airplanes. I picked up Waiting for Daisy and Inconceivable. I guess we can see where our interests are right now.

Clomid: Day 1

Yes, I am officially taking fertility medication. And of course this morning I woke up to find news of my niece's new baby in my email. Surprisingly I didn't feel sad or really even upset at all. I've really been in a better state of mind about this whole TTC business and I think I can give the credit to my doctor. She really took the time to listen to my frustration and asked a lot of questions. I think it also helps that we finally have an appointment with an RE. It really feels like, after a year and a half of going nowhere, we are finally headed down a road that will lead to a baby.
