Instead of feeling like my normal 32 year old self, I feel like a woman in menopause. I have had the worst hot flashes lately–last night while making dinner the hot flash was so bad that I started stripping my clothes off in the kitchen. I live in Michigan, so walking around in shorts when it’s 50 degrees out is kinda strange. I had a few more today what weren’t as bad as the one last night, but it’s such a weird feeling when it happens.
I’m not sure if it’s the Clomid or Premarin causing the hot flashes. I’m leaning toward the Clomid, simply because Premarin is a drug docs put menopausal women on to STOP some of their menopause symptoms. Only other thing I have noticed is that I get a headache everyday now. I’m used to getting monthly migraines, but not every single day. I’m hoping those go away soon.
I have been trolling on other TTC/infertility blogs lately and I’m amazed that there are so many other women who are in the same boat as I am. I thought about joining up with some message boards because since I haven’t told anyone that I have started this grand adventure I have no one to share the ups and downs with. So, if you’re reading this–just leave a comment and say hi
While on these boards I have become more up to date on all of the TTC lingo out there–my favorite euphamism, “baby dance,” (abbreviated BD) as in…husband and I have to do the “baby dance” every other day in order to maximize our chances of conceiving. I guess this is more polite than the other ways one could describe the act itself. I still don’t understand all of the lingo/abbreviations…but I’m getting there!
