Parched

This increased dosage of Clomid is making me crazy! First of all, I’m thirsty-er than a  mo-fo. Seriously. I drank a gazillion ounces of water today. And then I peed a billion times. Also, I am completely wired! I couldn’t sleep last night and today I was en fuego all day. Like totally ON FIRE! Hoping this nice glass of wine prep me for sleep. I have  a very early meeting tomorrow morning and I need to have my thinking cap on.

I had no idea 3 pills would have this big of a difference. Today is only CD4 so I’m sure there’s more fun stuff in store for me in regard to side effects! Giddy up. Yeeehaw.

Lights out on a Saturday night

Month 4 of the baby-making experiment. This month, we experience the joys of Clomid for days 3-7 of our cycle. I was really looking forward to being psychotic at work while on Clomid, but alas, I have no side effects, and thus cannot rant and rave with impunity. I found a very disturbing website today that tells you not only when to have sex if you are trying to conceive, but how. http://babymed.com/Tools/Fertility/Calendar/Default.aspx.

According to the calendar created for me by this site, on Wednesday, I am supposed to “[h]ave sex with shallow insertion of penis (Missionary position); No orgasm for her; Start Ovulation Predictor Kit and check twice daily; Check Cervical Mucus (CM).”Why do I have to have vanilla on your back missionary sex without an orgasm in order to conceive? I know – you’re thinking that I should just close my eyes and think of baseball, but this seems unfair. Also, this was likely dreamed up by a man. I’ll get right on penciling that on the calendar.
