Side Effects

So here are the side effects that I have noticed with Provera and Clomid. The Provera did its job. I had my monthly visit from "Aunt Flow". It was two days longer than normal, regular flow but my cramps and headaches were out of control. The first two days on the Clomid I didn't notice anything. But the third night I had a horrible night. I was physically sick. I was in the bathroom for so long. Since then I have had worse headaches than normal, my moods are out of control, I have cramps and I am always hot! I set the thermostat at 68 and still sweat while David and Christy freeze. I just can't cool off and it seems the heat is worse at night. I finished the Clomid on Saturday but am still having these side effects. All I can say is that this better work. Poor David can't handle anymore of my moods!!!

On a different note I had a revelation of sorts on Sunday in Relief Society. I was once again reminded that Heavenly Father is aware of our needs and the needs of those around us. I have been feeling sorry for myself and being bored out of my mind the last few weeks with not having a job. Yesterday our lesson was on our time and how we use it. Listening to the lesson I realized that Heavenly Father knew that this transition would be hard for Christy, for all of us. I realized that me not having a job has been a blessing. I have spent more time with Christy since moving here than I have since she was a year and a half old. The last few weeks I have been able to take her swimming. I did not realize how good of a swimmer she was. We have been able to go shopping, watch movies together, read and go to the park together. I feel like now that she is in school that the job that will fit mine and my families needs will be easier to find. I guess I need those little reminders that life is precious and that just because it's not going how I think it should that that is okay. I am so grateful for all my blessings, and I am so glad that I was in church yesterday and that I was paying attention to the spirit and the prompting and whisperings I felt.
