Hi Bek,

Sorry to hear about your sister's losses. This journey can be so so difficult sometimes.

I too struggled to get any sort of cycle back after losing my first baby. I think the stress had a lot to do with it.

[I think that is why I am considered PCOS, as opposed to PCO because at times I struggle with really irregular cycles, have hirsuitism and acne even though hormone levels can be normal (just the LH:FSH ratio out of whack at the irregular times) even though I have no weight problem or insulin resistance.]

I also know that miracles happen everyday and I am so happy it hear that your sister was able to overcome her really bad PCOS and have 2 beautiful daughters.

My DS is my little miracle! And I am hoping for another one.

I went through fertility testing and was told that I was extremely unlikely to EVER EVER conceive naturally again due to my lack of periods at that time. I simply was not ovulating. Well, as it happened I was actually pregnant when I was given this advice and found out I was three weeks pregnant a week later. Luckily I had refused to take the FS prescription for drugs to bring on a period.

I believe DS happened precisely at the moment when we had both totally given up any hope of ever concieving naturally due to all my bad test results. We were so desperate for it to happen after losing our first. Our first pregnancy happened so easily (on our first go!!) and I believe this was because we didn't think about it too much and didn't care whether it happened that month or later. We just seem to be unable to concieve consciously. This time we are not trying to think about it too much, go with the flow, and if it happens it happens.

If you can get regular cycles I would say that you have an excellent chance of having prefectly normal fertility (a few days variance each month is considered normal!).

I'd say, don't worry, enjoy the BD when your ready and don't think about it too much.
I'll throw some baby dust your way in a few months time...
