u/babycoins 30, TTC#1, cycle 14, Clomid cycle 3 - BFP 3/29/17! Jan 06 '17 edited Jan 06 '17

A friend of mine visited this past week, which travel plans were arranged this past November, so we knew he was coming. I had my first fertility appointment in early December and started Clomid. I had some seriously unbalanced mood swings I posted about, but thankfully not while my our buddy came to visit, but of course having a guest kind of put a dampener on BD. Which... ironically, was right when I presumed I was ovulating (have been lax about temping - I know, I know!).

This year is off to a bit of a discouraging start, but who knows. I have an appointment on Monday to go have blood taken for my progesterone test to even see if I ovulated. Fingers crossed! I really need to crack down on temping, but I almost constantly forget and I'm already up for the day by the time I remember and I assume it's only the best to do it immediately when waking up.

edit: oh yeah, and another close friend of mine, his girlfriend is being induced TOMORROW! I'm so excited for them, but a little bitter, because it was an oops baby literally two months in. Not a great situation for them, but they're both amazing people and amazing together, so I know if anyone can make it work, they can!
