So I guess I'm going to track all my appointments and fertility steps over the next few months here to prevent from starting tons of threads over and over-- I"m just going to keep it in one place

So I am on day 3 of my cycle which means we are officially in the first fertility medicated cycle. I go in for bloodwork tomorrow morning before work, bright and early. They also give me Clomid starting tomorrow for the next 5 days

I've already been taking bromocriptine for the last week or so

To recap Clint's results
They want a higher count than 20 million, and he has 167 million
Morphology they want over 4%, he's at 16%
and Motility they want over 40% and he's at 57 %

sounds like things are moving along. I hope the clomid crazies don't get you too bad...watch out for the hot flashes, those were the worst for me.

Ok well I take my second dose tonight.. I wrote Shannon earlier and said I dont feel different yet. I expected the raving psycho to take over since progesterone did! Maybe I have to wait 2 days for the raving psycho to kick in

the symptoms for me were always worse post pills than during pills.

Alright! So mood swing have officially begun. I wish someone had told me that country music is a real problem when you are hormonal. Clint makes me angry and country makes me cry

I also told Clint today that hormones will be raging for the better part of this next year since pregnancy often will recreate these same mood swings. I told him that after a year, things hopefully might even out-- he had to remind me about post partum.
