It's been a while since I had time to update as I was away this weekend for my grandmother's funeral. She passed away on Feb 8th, but we were unable to bury her at that time due to the ground being frozen. I miss her more than I can express in words, but it's comforting that she's resting peacefully next to my grandfather who she was faithfully devoted to for their entire marriage.
My baseline ultrasound went smoothly on Thursday. Everything looked ok for me to start taking the Letrozole/Femara. I am now done 5 days of that and I can't express enough relief that it is done! I was not expecting to have any side effects since Clomid was a breeze for me, but that was far from the case. The first two days I had a forehead splitting headache, that resolved on the next three days if I took a Tylenol with the pill but I had SEVERE vomiting and GI upset at night on the other days. It was extremely unpleasant being woken up from a sleep with a horribly upset stomach.
So I am now on (adjusted for meds) cycle day 7. Most people ovulate somewhere around cycle day 11-17ish while on Femara/Letrozole. I go in for another ultrasound on Saturday to see if it made anything happen. REALLY hoping it woke up my ovaries!
