We have been TTC for 18 months .... Baby Dust to all TTC.

UPDATES:

7/15/08:This month: 3rd Round of Femara (like Clomid) day 3-7 of my cycle. Fourth month on Metformin

7/14/08: Update: altho I am supposed to be on a TTC break.... I have been having pains on my left side for the last 5 weeks or so- I have a small tube on my left side. So I decided to go into the doctor today- I was afraid it was a cyst. U/S reviels that I ovulated last month-pretty good (possibly two eggs from one side) because it caused painful bleeding around my ovary. However I already spot AF so I'm out for this month... The Dr gave me pain meds and more fertility drugs.... Not exactly what I was hoping for since I kinda wanted a break!!!!!!!!!!

4/7/08: 2 BFPs this past week and the Doctor's Blood Test showed nothing by the end of the week: chemical pg

HISTORY:

We have had DH swimmers tested: all looks good and blood work showed his testosterone level at 285 which is low in the normal range but still normal.

March 2008: I had a Hysterosalpingography (Dye Test). The Dye Test showed that my left tube is much smaller than my right but both tubes are open. I started taken Metformin which will lower my glucose levels but is suppose to help me ovulate with better quality.

I was diagnosed with PCOS right after we got married in 2005. I really wasn't sure what it was untill I started TTC. Latest U/S July 2008 still shows cysts on both ovaries even with medication. At least the Dr. says I am ovulating.

Dr. says to keep taking the Progesterone if I don't start AF at a week or so late & I still have a BFN. I only take it as needed. I used to be on the nuva ring and it really messed up AF. I went a long time without a PD. and I am now real irregular if I don't take the med. I am sure that it is a low dose and I only have to take it a few days. This also avoids letting my lining get too thick. My lining was so thick at one point and my dr. was scared that the cells could become cancerous. That is another reason that he wants me to take it if I am running into 6 week + cycles which has become regular about every 6 months. I go to the OBGYN about every 2-4 months for check ups. I love my Dr. he is supportive and very positive that we are on the right track.

niseybear - Sunday, 20 July
Hello everyone!

I just wanted to let you all know that I won't be on as much. Nothing is wrong, I just do better when I visit here every 4 days or so instead of everyday. We are well with the exception of my husband working 6 days a week and not having any family time. Today (sunday) is supposed to be our day together, but he's at work. I'm hoping he's feeling okay when he gets off and maybe if it's not too late, he, Mo, and I can go for a drive and then later him and I to a movie. Work is cool and I'm only one month away from starting school. I know what I want to be when I grow up....A TEACHER! I don't want to be a server when I'm 50. I only need 4 courses for my AA and then I can start my work for my BA in elementary education. I'M SCARED TO DEATH, but I know if it's meant to be, G-d will see to it. Mo is 7 months old now and is an official crawler! He only scoots every now and again. He was standing up in his crib this morning and I just about died! He was more on his toes, but it was so cute! Looks like he may be walking soon. I haven't breastfed in nearly a month and a half and it's odd, I do miss it. What a closeness Mo and I had while I was doing it. We still have that bond, but breastfeeding made it even more special. I haven't had a period in about 3 months now, but I did bleed for about a day and a half last month. I'm going to talk to my OB if I don't see a cycle once I hit the green pills on my BC. Of course I'm not pregnant, no signs whatsoever. And I know what they mean when they say, once you've been pregnant, you know instantly the next time you are. I took 2 tests over 2 months and of course BFN and I'm okay with that. I want to enjoy Mo for a little while longer. And this house just isn't big enough for another little one. Our stimulus check arrived on July 7th and it was SO NICE to finally receive it. Money was low and now we're on the high end once again and I'm hoping it stays that way for a bit. Well, let me go, my little man has been in his activity center long enough watching Baby Einstein. He's such a good boy...even if he does wake up at 2:45 in the AM and doesn't go down again til nearly 4AM! Oh I was MAD this AM because I was SO tired. I put him back in his crib because I was upset and a few minutes later hubby stepped in and took over. I didn't hear him again til 6am and I was okay with that. Got him a bottle and he fell asleep about 30 minutes later and we BOTH slept til nearly 8:30!
Hope all you guys are well. Be blessed and take care!


prayin41 - Thursday, 17 July
I just wanted to say Thank you to you all for your support! I could not have gotten this far TTC for the past months without you all backing me up and reminding me to keep my faith. Right now, I am grateful for my miracle, Please pray for me that it is a healthy pregnancy and a healthy baby, this is our first and I was completely shocked by the test. My joy is over whelming, my mom keeps telling me to be positive, and I am like, I will be positive, but I am waiting for my doc appointment Wednesday to make sure all is well. Either way I have to believe God is taking care of me. No matter what, I know DH and I concieved a life and that is the most amazing feeling for me right now.
