This just in: Progesterone makes me have to pee, a lot. Also, it makes me randomly weepy and cranky. WHO KNEW? I am not looking to A) having my period and B) taking Clomid (now with even more side effects and three times the pill-taking fun!) while on a hiking trip next week with my husband AND my in-laws.
I am not a hiking girl. (I mean, I am not actively against it or anything, it's just not my number one fun activity.) I will only be going on day hikes and not the crazy multiple over night backpacking hiking extravaganza that my dear husband and father-in-law are going on. However, that means I will be left alone with my mother-in-law for three days. And the husband and I are not telling them we are trying - this is mostly me and not wanting to disclose to the in-laws that their sweet baby boy married a broken woman. I don't think I could take the hassle or the sympathy.
Anyway, like I said last time, no updates because nothing is happening. I'm on the same train, taking progesterone and then more bonus Clomid. I haven't tangled with taking my temperature or peeing on a stick for the monitor in AGES, but I bet you can't wait for the awesome updates when I do that again. I just finished the progesterone ... Tuesday, so I'm waiting for the period to drop any time ...

I know...
I seriously cannot believe it's been 20 days since my last post. The whirlwind update is this, I got a hojillion highs from the monitor, and then a low, with no peak. The CD 21 test confirmed that I did not ovulate at all, and now my doctor wants me to go on 150 mg of Clomid.
My husband's theory is that 100 was probably borderline, and that's why it worked one time and didn't the next, just too close to what I needed. His optimism tells him that 150 will SURELY get us there. I continue to be disappointed.
Aaand to make it better, I can't even start the Provera until tomorrow even though I had my blood test last Thursday because the doctor's office refuses to call me back. So unlike a TWW, where it's over and you get your period, I will have to wait a week and a half to get my period even after all hope is gone and then start again. Whee.
