Hello all,
I am new here and thought I would share with each of you TTC, because I was once in your shoes.
I have a PCOS. It affects each person differently and to different levels. Seems like I was "lucky" enough to pretty much struggle in every area.
Because of this i had unovulatory cycles and cycles that would either never come or never go away. We decided in jun2 2005 to see a fertility specialist and start the process. It was so hard emotionally to be TRYING. Sounds so easily to the rest of the world. I worked really hard on loosing weight while i took Metformin in hopes to get regular. I didnt get regular but i lost 40 lbs (they say weightloss helps) The dr put me on bcp's to relax my ovaries and get me "regular". which was hard to do because I was trying and it felt like wasted time. (all this was after the sperm count and hsg). Then we did our first round of clomid (still on MET), at my midcycle u/s I had on follie at 18mm and thats it. I stared my estrogen and progesterone and took a trigger shot 2 days later. Low and behold we got PG. It worked. (btw we also had a day of prayer for us, we emailed everyone we knew and asked them all to pray on the same day, i knew that day that God would bless me with a baby but didnt know when)
The PG was was rough because my body doesnt do things right (LOL) but we made it and I have a healthy little girl. She is true a gift from God and blesses my life everyday.
We actually had a miscarriage when she was 6 mons. old and i struggle with trying for another.
So, stay strong and know that it can happen no matter what the drs say. I wasnt suppose to have a child at all...the dr said only 12% chance with all the medicine out there...and boom it happened.
If yo uhave any questions along the way or need someone to be praying for you let me know.
