I'm away from home for work this week. Not very far away from home but far enough I can't pick up my prescription and the husband has to deliver. Good thing he's a saint. Anyways, I started my period 2 days ago! You have no idea how excited I was to see that sight. We weren't sure how long we would have to wait because since puberty hit I've rarely (if ever) had a regular period and we thought April and May were flukes. But to have it start exactly when it "should" is truly a miracle. Especially because its been right on schedule April, May, and now June. So, what's the significance of this you ask? Well, day 3-7 of my cycle is when my doctor wanted me to start Clomid. At first my period wasn't very heavy so I thought it was just coincedental spotting but nope we are good to go. So I called the doctor this morning and left a message. Within a couple hours I got a call back from the nurse asking which pharmacy I'd like my prescription sent to. After a lengthy discussion via 3 different phone calls on my part I had all my little questions answered, reviewed the process multiple times, made sure I knew when the little swimmers needed to swim (if ya get my drift)...and we were in business.
Side story...don't worry that husband went to pick up the magic pills and the pharmacy had no record of the prescription and that it was 2:00 pm and the doctor's office closes at 4:00 pm. AHHHHH!! talk about stressful. It was a Friday...the doctor's office is closed Saturday and Sunday, which means the soonest I would have gotten them would be Monday which would be day 6 of my cycle. Remember how day 7 would be the last day I needed to take the meds? Yeah..no point by then. I was FREAKING out. But don't worry after 2 more phone calls to the doctors and another call to the pharmacy all was well.
Anyhow, I took my first pill of Clomid today. I feel good about things. Obviously we won't know if it works for awhile but my hopes are high.
(Side note-hopefully you aren't totally grossed out about this but I want to be straight up honest about the whole thing.)
