Patti, Clomid is not fun, I too have been going through ups and downs with Clomid this month. This is my first month taking it, we are trying for our second child, too. Sunday I broke out in hives from the Clomid, scratching till I bled. I went to the dr and he has me on steroids now. He says no more Clomid, I could have a worse reaction to it next time. He wants to put me on the injectable Pergonol.

So believe me, I understand Clomid is not fun. Hang in there!!!
