Clomid update
Many people have been asking about how I have handled the Clomid. The truth is, until today, I had absolutely no side effects. That concerned me a bit as I wasn't sure it was working...guess we will see next week. (ultrasound for follicle check is a week from today).
Today, however, I had my first "hot flash" (common side effect of Clomid). Or, at least I think I did. I thought I wouldn't mind hot flashes cause I am always SOO cold, but it turns out it wasn't just all about feeling overly warm. I was in the shower this morning, rinsing shampoo out of my hair. All of a sudden, I felt like my arms were lead and I couldn't hold them up and I felt hot and clammy and sick to my stomach. I couldn't do anything but turn the shower off and just sit there holding a garbage can in front of my face in case I puked...I was frantically trying to think what I was going to do for sub plans as I thought I had come down with the flu, and then, about 3-5 minutes later, it was done, and I felt fine...
Very strange.
It was not pleasant, however, if that is the only side effect I have and it only lasts one day for 5 minutes, I can handle Clomid. :)
Now, I am just ready to start peeing on sticks...technically, i am not supposed to begin until Monday, but I think I will start on Friday. Besides, I have this weird feeling like my abdomen is "full"...makes me think that the eggs are all ripe and ready to pop. :)

I would have to agree, Amazon sized eggs would give you that "full" feeling. Just think you are being given a glance into the future and how the big pause will affect you.
