Jessica's November check in!

This month was our first round of medication- It went a little easier on me than my first month of Clomid, I can tell you that for sure! There were still some side effects but they were very small compared to the mountain of side effects that clomid gave me.  I won't give you all of the icky details- Hey a girls gotta have some secrets! But here is a lay out of what was going on. 

Ironically AF showed on November 1st. When I said that we were going to start drugs in November- something took me very literally, So on November 3rd, CD 3  I took my first round of Letrozole.  

CD 3: first dose of Letrozole- Slight headache, noticed that I was a little dizzy- but not enough to bother me. 
CD4: second dose: Full on headache- enough that I took a dose of Tylenol. I was also REALLY dizzy. Had to sit down at work for a while- My head was spinning. 
CD5 :3rd dose- I knew the dizziness was coming so I prepared for it. No other symptoms to speak of. 
CD6:4th dose- I was really wishing the dizziness would end- what a stupid decision to take it in the morning when you are at work! Next month I'll take it at night! 
CD7: 5th(AND FINAL) dose: Headache, Dizziness, irritability, and a mild hot-flash at work. 

After that all seemed to go just as normal. I've had more headaches this month than I normally would have, that can easily be blamed on the weather changing. I got a + OPK on Sunday November 9th. On November 15th I went in for a blood draw to see if I actually ovulated. I haven't heard back from the Dr's yet about the blood work, I'm trying not to get my hopes up before I hear back on the blood work in case it isn't all good.
