Here we go...

After 50 days, af finally arrived. That was my longest cycle in history and I'm thoroughly convinced that I would have started sooner had it not been for the provera. Anyway, I will start clomid round 2 on Monday at 150 mgs. I'm a little nervous about increased side effects with the higher dosage, but I'm ready. I hope this is our month.

MAJOR Moodiness!!!

I've taken two doses of provera so far...and WOW! I'm just pissy. My boobs hurt. I'm starving but I feel like I'm going to puke. I took a short nap this afternoon and apparently had a dream that Matt's sister got pregnant by her loser boyfriend of 6 weeks. When I say "loser", I'm not exaggerating. The guy hooked up with Beth the week after his ex-girlfriend gave birth to his son. The guy is currently unemployed and lives in a barn. Yes, A BARN! Anyway, I woke up in a state of shock, depression and total rage. Hope this goes away since I'll be spending all day tomorrow with Matt's family. Happy Easter! :)

Clomid, Cycle 2

Shortly after my last post, I came down with the flu. Even though I had a flu shot around Thanksgiving, I managed to contract a strange strand of influenza that wasn't covered by this year's vaccine. Oh the joys of working with the public! Anyway, as a result, March's cycle was a total bust. I wasn't able to go back for my Clomid check for fear of spreading the virus. Sigh....

Today, I had my month-overdue Clomid check with Dr. B. She reviewed my bbt chart from February and was excited to see a positive opk on cd 17-18. Since I am now on cd 35, she wrote a script for Provera to induce af and increased the Clomid to 150 mgs on cds 3-7. Dr. B. remains positive. She's convinced that this will be our month. Thank God for encouraging doctors!
