what's going on with Mommy?

Few days after the Clomid pills finished, Mommy is now struggling with the after effects. Fatigue and increase of appetite becomes a common sensation in Mommy's mind. She looked for answers in Aunty Emmy, who took Clomid for 2 years and suffered the side effects. Aunty Emmy had acne breakouts and increase weight gain during her perscription, and Mommy feels similarly too. So Mommy decided to increase her fluid intake as to curb dehydration and to eat and exercise like normal. But it was very hard, because Mommy gets sleepy all the time. I saw Mommy ate two Kit kat bars after work - that was naughty! She knows she shouldn't be stuffing herself with so much sugar..but that's all her tastebud craves for these days. he he..I'm with you Mommy.

Mommy also did more research on her condition - Dr Yong did mention that her tipped uterus (facing towards back of pelvis) is not the cause for infertility, but the condition leads to endometriosis. Due to endometrosis cysts, chances of conceiving is reduced. So Mommy has to go through a number of stages - first, a few cycles of Clomid, then Laparoscopy surgery to burn the endometriosis cysts. If nothing happens for the next 6 months, a uterus reposition surgery will follow after to help Mommy conceive. Mommy is taking it calmly because she wants me - and if it's not too hazardous, she will try anything. Hang on Mommy, I know you're quite depressed about the impending surgeries but hey, one day I'll come out smiling at you, and you'll know I'm worth it.
