Clomid Update

Today is Day 3 of our first round of Clomid. Clomid can have some pretty crazy side effects, but thankfully I have missed them so far. I had a headache yesterday and may have been a little dizzy in the night, but nothing too intense. Per advice from ladies who have done this before, I am taking the pill at night in order to sleep through the most severe side effects. So far, so good.

I was a little nervous to mess with my hormones. A few months before we got married, I started taking a "low-dose" birth control pill. I have never been so sick in my life. It absolutely wreaked havoc on my body. Between the severe side effects and additional scientific information presented to us, we decided to avoid hormonal birth control.

Obviously, I was relieved to get past the first twenty-four hours of Clomid without side effects. I have three more pills to take, so hopefully the trend continues. We appreciate your prayers.
