Was Just Prescribed Clomid!

Was just prescribed Clomid after ttc for 18 months... I am 23 yrs old, and I Do ovulate on my own, just haven't been able to get pregnant.  My hubby has had a SA and it came back fine, and he has also fathered two children.  I am supposed to take it CD5-9, so now I am just waiting for AF to show up!... I have had my hormones checked and everything came back normal, so hopefully Clomid will just help us along!!! Anything I may need to know prior to actually taking clomid or while taking it will be appreciated!
​I was told while taking it I should ONLY BD on CD12,14,16,18?? 
​I have to go back to my doc on cd12 (after taking it) to check my follicles? And again on CD21... 
​Any input is appreciated!!
