Clomid Cycle 1; Day 1

6:40 am take pill
6:55 am become filled with overwhelming sense of dread (this isn't going to work, and if it doesn't, we are so f*cked; IVF isn't really an "option")
6:59 am fight with Rich because he isn't really that supportive when I express concerns ("there's nothing else we can do about it / it's out of our hands" doesn't go far for comforting me when I think we might never have children)
7:15 am Realise that the previous 2 entries probably not related to "the clomid crazies", just plain old insensitive husband syndrome
3:17 pm Become anxious that I made the wrong choice taking the promotion
