Today is the day. Cycle Day 1. I will be calling tomorrow morning to make the Cycle Day 5 ultrasound appointment. That will be Friday. Good grief, this happened quickly! It actually came several days early, which I am totally okay with, because I wanted to get this party started. ;)
I started on the Metformin on Saturday evening and have not experienced any alarming side effects. In fact, the only thing I have noticed so far is that I'm super thirsty. That's actually a good thing, since I'm so terrible about drinking enough water, so I'm just keeping a cup of water by me at all times, just like I did when I was pregnant.
Clomid starts at Cycle Day 5. Mucinex starts after that - I think it's Day 10 or something. I bought some new prenatal vitamins to take too - a different kind than I had been taking. Hopefully all of this will make a difference.
Things have been so stressful lately, it's no wonder my body is all out of sorts. Trying and failing every single month, work stress, family stress, all the stuff with Nathan's head CT... it's enough to make anybody's body just say "stop." I'm really hoping and praying that this will give me the jump start I need to get pregnant.
I'm going back to temping this month - just to see what happens. I may just have to post my charts here.
Most of what I'm doing here is so that hopefully if someone else is going through this, she can read and see what is happening with someone else. But also, to have a record of this journey. If we are able to successfully get pregnant and have a baby from this, he or she may want to hear the story of their creation at some point. Not the graphic details, of course, but what we went through to make it happen. And if it is a daughter and she happens to have the same issues, maybe my experience can give her some insight.
Or maybe nobody but me will ever read this. And that's okay too. :)
