Day 3 on Clomid...

So today is day 3 on Clomid... and the side effects have already started! Mostly just hot flashes and not being able to sleep without waking up 100 times! I have also been feeling really nauseous

Other than that I am hoping it will be a good week... It's my birthday party on Friday night- a lot of my friends are coming- I am very excited!! Saturday I am going to see Carrie Underwood... and then on Sunday it's Easter!!

I hope everyone has a good week :)

She's Here...

AF arrived today :(

I am also starting my new prescription today... I asked my doctor awhile ago about switching from regular metformin to an extended release one, she hadn't heard of one, so she put me on avandia... I did some research on it and it doesn't seem right that I would take it for fertility and pregnant women can't take it. So I did some more research and spoke to my pharmacist- he gave me the name of the metformin extended release, I called my doctor- and she sent in a prescription for it... so I start 1000mg of Glumetza at supper tonight!

I will start Clomid again on Saturday- woo freaken hoo.

New Job...

In the midst of my horrible week I totally forgot to mention I was offered a new job at work... I applied for the position awhile ago, went through all the interviews... and it was offered to me last week. I am really excited about the new job, I think I will enjoy it MUCH more than the job I am currently doing. It is still in the same company and same department, just a much better job!!

Bad week got worse...

So after my bad week last week I was hoping the weekend would be better!! Friday was good, 2 good friends came over and we had a great night! Then Saturday morning I went out with my sister and a friend to pick up her wedding dress... we were at a stop light and were rear ended by a lady driving at high speed... that turned the weekend horrible... My back and head were killing and my neck was sore. DH and I just stayed in Saturday night and relaxed. Sunday morning I woke up and could hardly move my neck... DH brought me to the hospital in town and the doctor said it was whiplash... PLUS, they made me pee in a cup, and they said I am not pregnant... that was at 11DPO. I guess its pretty much over this cycle... I am just waiting for AF to come now to start the next round of Clomid.

P4 Levels are back...

I did O this month... my P4 was 26... which is much better than last month. It seems they also did a Beta at 7DPO... and it was negative. I barely got off the phone before I started crying... I don't know if its too soon for a beta or not, but its so discouraging. My eyes are stinging and I just want to curl up in a ball... this sucks!!

I had messaged DH before my doctor called and asked him to pick me up some ice cream and cookie dough... I am having a rotten week and now an even more rotten day... I need to cheat on my diet tonight and indulge in my favourite treats.

:( Feeling down today.

I went for my P4 test yesterday- I didn't get my normal lab tech, instead I got this BRUTAL woman who left me with a fantastic bruise!! I will call my doctors office this afternoon to see what the results were... I am guessing the levels will be high because my temps are way up. I am also unbelievably tired- and this generally happens when my progesterone levels are high.

I am also really emotional this week, it is driving me crazy!! I spun out on my way to work yesterday and a big truck almost hit me... I started screaming and crying in the car, I then called DH and told him I couldn't do this drive again next year- we had to move. (I drive an hour to work on back country roads). Today I drove in through a snow storm to get to work for a few meetings- and when I got here they all got cancelled... I was not impressed at all!! I haven't been feeling too great this week, bad stomach pains Monday, and then yesterday and again today my back is killing, only on my right side, but its bad- I slept with a hot water bottle last night. I have had the burning feeling behind my eyes that I am about to cry all week too- I watched a tv show last night and bawled like a baby- its rediculous!!

I talked to a friend this morning that I haven't talked to in awhile, he was saying him and his wife don't see much of me anymore... I know this is true, because I haven't been calling them really... They have 2 kids now- a 2 year old and a baby that's a few months old... it is hard to see them and hang out with them- they started trying for #2 awhile after we started trying and boom... just happened for them... its tough! A few of our friends have kids now- and they are all adorable and wonderful, and I love to see them, but I feel so sad after too!

My birthday is coming up, 27... My goal when DH and I got married was to have a baby or be pregnant by my 27th birthday... Its not looking too promising :( DH is having a birthday party for me on Easter weekend, it should be fun, and I am looking forward to it... but I found out today our friends are all bringing their kids- which is fine, I just hope I don't get sad or upset that day. And its not like I can ask our friends not to bring their kids, especially because a few of my aunts are invited and I am sure they will bring their kids- which is fine with me- I love seeing my little cousins... its just different with my friends and their kids... not sure why, it just is. I know that makes no sense!

Well I should get back to work... just needed to get my thoughts/frustrations out!
