Clomid - Take Four

I'm being naughty this cycle, and I am totally refilled my Clomid presctiption from last Spring/Summer without teling my doctor.  So hopefully I don't get OHSS and die or anything.

My last cycle was like 46 days long and I didn't ovulate.  My fertility trackers both said that I did, but I am 99% sure they were wrong.  So I decided to try the Clomid again.

My doctor had me take it cycle days 5-9, but since I tend to ovulate early (or used to back when I ovulated on a regular basis) I took it cycle days 3-7 and should be ovulating soon.

When I last took Clomid it was at 25 mg a day and I had no side effects.  I also didn't ovulate one of those 25 mg cycles.  The first cycle I took 50 mg and had a couple.  My eyes were really dry and yet watery at the same time and I had a few mild hot flashes.

This time I am noticing that I feel a little dizzy every once in a while.  Since its not the same as last time, I think it might all be in my head.

TMI ALERT!  TMI ALERT!  TMI ALERT!

*THIS NEXT PARAGRAPH IS EMBARRASSING TO WRITE, AND MIGHT EMBARASS YOU TO READ*

Last time that I took the 50 mgs and this time, there was one side effect I thought was odd.  I looked around online and it turns out that its not that uncommon.  How do I put this so I don't come off bad... ?  I was a little less uninterested in doing what it takes to make a baby.  There, that doesn't sound scandalous.

Comfy Joey Wool Sling Review and Giveaway

Did you enter to win the $25 Comfy Joey voucher and lose?  Well, GREAT NEWS!  Comfy Joey is amazingly generous and I am able to offer not one, but TWO more vouchers!  Along with the Dolly Sling, I was also given a Newborn Wool Sling .  I was super excited when I got the sling in the mail.  I love baby-wearing , and trying out new carriers is always fun. The Newborn Wool Slings are for use between birth and 25lbs.  Miss Baby is 25 lbs. so she is right at the top of the weight limit (they are safe up to 30 lbs. 25lbs. is for comfort).  It is a handwash in cold water item and should be air dried.  This sling is so cozy and cuddly that I have not gotten a chance to use it very much, because we have had a quite warm summer.  It is a grey, tan, and cream houndstooth with silver rings, which means it matches everything you could possibly want to wear it with.  The sling is very well made, and the rails are pretty easy to adjust. ...

Manipulatives Monday GIVEAWAY from Mother Goose Time - closed

Giveaway closed! Thank you so much to everyone who entered, I really appreciate it! I have excellent news!  Today is Manipulatives Monday, and Mother Goose Time  is giving away a great prize!  One lucky winner will receive TWO bags of manipulatives!  Mother Goose Time will chose the prizes, but I assure you, whatever they send will be a lot of fun for your children! Manipulatives are a big hit in our house.  Every month we get two new bags of manipulatives, and every month Little Guy asks if he can play with them before the month starts.  The answer is always no, but he tries every month anyways.  During the month we use them for the assigned activities but after we are done with the curriculum, I let him add them to his toy collection. One thing that is in almost every box is a set of counters.  These are often in the shape of animals, which are Little Guy's favorites.  They are used for a variety of activities, and are alwa...
