I just took clomid days 5-9 last week. With in 48 hours of me starting Clomid I felt like I didn't want children I didn't want to deal with them. Piror to this point I wanted kids so bad I would cry after being around my friends children. This past weekend I was at a birthday party with over 20 children under the age of 5 and at the end of the day my husband asked " What is the matter you didn't even play or hold any of the children" I it was then I realized something is wrong. I feel like it may be the clomid. That is the only thing I have changed. I feel so blah.. and not happy

I think that because you have actually started 'something' that will aid you with concieving, your nerves may be up. Because now it becomes a bit more real, kinds like 'this could really happen'. The clomid is known to cause moodiness so it is not uncommon. I am in a bit of the same situation. We are ttc a sibling, I have had 5 losses. 4 before my living children and 1 after and I had the opportunity to start clomid last month but have yet to do so. All I have to do is call the Dr to get some b/w and start provera and get the ball rolling. But I have been very hesitant. Part of me wants to but the other part does not want to go through this again.
I think it is normal, just a bit of cold feet. Hopefully shortly after you are done with the clomid you will feel better about everything.

I just started my first round of Clomid (50) last month, and by the 4th day I was an emotional mess. I felt like a failure and thought, "I don't even deserve to be a mother - why am I even trying?" I could barely make myself get out of bed, and fortunately DH was prepared and patient with the weepy monster who had once been his wife.
Fortunately, though, that subsided after a day or two, and now I am back to trying to control my excitement that I think I actually O'd...and now into the 2ww!
Give yourself some time and patience, and try to relax and take some time for yourself. Going through the TTC process is enough to make anyone crazy, and adding medications that make your hormones wonky is even worse. I'm just trying to take each day at a time, and hopefully keep my optimism in check.
I could have written that word for word! I am on my first cycle of clomid, and while taking the pill I actually said to my husband "this is all a mistake, I wish I didn't take it!" I also used the word 'blah' to describe my overall feelings. But honestly within a couple of days after the last pill I was back to normal (now on CD 16, with my second follicle scan tomorrow!) and I am hoping it works!
I took Clomid and got my beautiful daughter out of it. When I took It I was scared after and very emotional. My husband thought I was nuts after all we had been trying for over 2 1/2 years and this might be the answer.
After all we never were going to pursue past this point as we didnt want selective reduction thrown at us with stronger fertility drugs, clomid for three months was it, I had already tried all alternative therapies and low carbing with glucophage and only one got me pregnant and I miscarried. I think there was so much pressure on this cycle that If I didnt try I wouldnt realize this was it and if it didnt work I wouldnt have children. I didnt want to know for sure.
Thankfully 10 months later my daughter came, when I found out I was pregnant I was in shock and so thankful for the gift I had been given. When something has so much power over your life possibly and your future I think its only natural to be scared to be face to face with that reality not to mention the hormonal fluctuations. Now I cant imagine my life without my daughter and Im so thankful for every day I have with her and have had for the last 3 1/2 years.
Thank you all. I am on day 15 right now and I am kinda worried I always ovulate starting day 13. I am aware you can O late. I got my feeling back to have kids kinda... This drug in not nice... and I thought Met was bad..
Thank you all for your love and kindness

I o'd on cd 18 with clomid taken cd days 3-7 and estrogen taken cd days 9-12 to give me plenty of cervical fluid. Clomid is a whirlwind on your hormones, can you imagine what menopause is going to be like
Clomid and not wanting children feeling
