Clomid side effects

So far, so good with the Clomid side effects. My last dose is today and I'm thankful that so far things have been pretty good. A couple headaches and a handful of hot flashes is nothing compared to what I thought I'd be experiencing this week. However, during the rest of this cycle and when (if!) I have to take more Clomid/a higher dose of it, I should probably repeat the following to myself like a mantra:

There is no reason for me to get irrationally angry or overly emotional and break into tears because;
  • I couldn't remember where I left my book
  • Bugs exist
  • A commercial was loud
  • The elastic on my underwear folded over and felt uncomfortable
  • My computer took a while to load  
  • The dog barks sometimes

Okay, so maybe I'm having a few side effects. 

Also, two of my best friends got married (to each other) last night and let me just say it was a good thing I was wearing waterproof eye makeup.  Glad I thought of that one in advance.
