Day 28.5 (Technically 29)

My appointment went really well today. Everything checked out so we are going to continue next month with a higher dosage of Clomid and see what happens. The nurse took me back today, started taking my vitals and asking some questions. She asked if we were using any birth control (I'm sure this is a standard question, but seemed stupid on a fertility visit) before I could even think I blurted out "Nope, my ovaries do a good enough job!" She looked a little stunned, told me the doctor would be in soon, and walked out. About 10 minutes later the doctor comes in...laughing...and says "I hear you got lippy with my nurse!" She thought it was hilarious, I did still apologize though. Talking to my mom later we decided I should have said "Oh shit...is THAT why we're not getting pregnant?! I better call my husband!"

I seem to be in much better spirits after my appointment. I think I was just really nervous especially with the cramping. I was really afraid my ovaries would react bad to the Clomid and the doctor would say I couldn't take it anymore. The doctor said my cramping was normal and thought it was my ovaries "waking up." I even told her about two weeks ago when it felt like I had ruptured an ovary. She figured it up and it would have happened right around Day 14 which could mean it was an ovary trying to ovulate since my Progesterone was higher, but obviously I didn't ovulate. She said as long as there's no abnormal bleeding or severe pain I'm fine. On Monday I'll start the next round...

Round 1
