Excited but getting nervous!!

I have been so excited to start taking Clomid and hopefully find something to help us get pregnant but now that I'm supposed to start my first round tonight suddenly I am feeling really nervous!! For any of you that have been on Clomid and took it in the evening instead of the morning did you take it right before you went to bed or earlier, I'm worried about the side effects and just want to avoid them as much as possible!! Are they really as bad as I keep reading or is it pretty tolerable compared to pregnancy symptoms! ;)

Re: Excited but getting nervous!!

  • For me the symptoms weren't bad the first 4 cycles. It has only been recently that I have had problems. The most notable for me were the hot flashes at night, but those shouldn't be too bad with cooler weather.
    It is different for everyone and you might not have any issues.
    I took mine at night just before bed.

    Good luck!

  • I had a lot of symptoms with Clomid.  Night sweats, pretty major mood swings, etc., however, I've heard from a few people that they had no symptoms whatsoever.  So, who knows, you could be one of the lucky ones.  Smile
  • I'm on my 3rd round of Clomid right now and I have yet to have any side effects. I think I'm one of the lucky ones :)

    S/PAIF/PAL ALWAYS WELCOME!!
  • I always took it before bed though i did have crazy night sweats. That was really my only symptom. I don't think this cycle took so on to clomid cycle 3 next week so long as I have no cysts. Good luck to you!
