Hello ladies!

It is 2 A.M. on Sunday morning and I am trying to pass time until I have to leave for work at 2:30 A.M. and keep myself awake so I thought I would update everyone on my first cycle of clomid.

I am on cd9 today. I told 5 days of clomid cd3-7. I was pretty sick the first two days with nausea, headache and dizziness but it passed and then the mood swings came in full force. By the time Thursday came I was mad one minute then on the verge of crying my eyes out the next minute and this was at work. I am very lucky I work with a bunch of understanding people and they did not kill me. After the emotional ups and downs and mood swings I had Thursday and Friday I told dh I wasn't sure I could keep taking the clomid or not. He was so understanding and gave me a hug and reassured me I won't have to take it much longer. I am glad he is keeping a positive attitude it really helps me.

I have had the worse week in history! I have been working on trying to get a certified copy of dh's birth certificate for our vacation to Mexico and to get a passport. I told him weeks ago he needed to get one but he swore he could use his original hospital birth certificate. Don't you just hate it when dh's think they know everything! I know this sounds so minor but dh was born in California and we live in Ohio! I finally found a website that I could order it from the Bureau of Vital Stats but the wait time is 7 weeks! Yikes our vacation is in 10 weeks! That is sure cutting it close and ideally we wanted to get passports! Well I faxed the order to them in Sacramento Friday morning like the website said to. I did some calling around and got a hold of the Santa Barbara County Recorder. I was so lucky because I got a hold of a very nice clerk and she told me to fax the request to them directly and they would process it that day and send it out in the mail. She informed me that the main office in Sacramento was so behind that I probably would not even get the certificates until after I left for my vacation. I wanted to reach through the phone and hug this woman. As you can tell the clomid was still in full swing. To wrap up this story I am hoping to get the copies in the great U.S. Mail by midweek so dh can apply for his passport and we can go on our wonderful vacation.

We have booked a resort vacation in Playa del Carmen Mexico for May 12-19. We are staying at the Allegro Resort right on the beach! We got a great deal through ATA airlines out of Indianapolis. Indy is a 2 1/2 drive from here but that is the only place the vacations leave out of so I could not be too picky. We ditched the cruise idea because we waited too long and the airfare was skyrocketing. I am really excited though because I think a resort vacation will be much more relaxing.

Well I better get offline and get ready to go to work! Oh the joy of police work in the middle of the night, ya got to love the overtime NOT! I go to the doctor on March 8 for bloodwork so I will update everyone then.

Hugs,

Carmajo
