So, as I mentioned, we are trying another cycle of Clomid. Dr. P called in 100 mg of it (up from 50, which I am weirdly pleased about). The way Clomid works is, you take it for 5 days in your cycle (either from day 3 through day 7 or from day 5 through day [...]

Please let someone here in Cheesecake City buy this… it is SO freaking cool and this sort of thing is NEVER on Cheesecake’s CL. Arrrgh. Off to go cuddle the dogs. Maybe Erin [...]
