Dee - I'm so sorry hon Good luck with IVF and please keep us updated on how you're travelling. I'll be heading the same way sooner or later so I'm very interested in the process. Take some time for yourself over the next couple of days and make it ALL about you!
Musik - Welcome! I know exactly what you mean about the AF pain in your ovaries, mine starts at about CD 4 and is pretty much on & off all cycle. I figure it's a good thing cos at least you know your Ovaries are active. I hope your stay here is short and sweet
Tammara - I hope things straighten out for you soon so you can get on with the Clomid
AFM - Nothing new, just waiting for AF but I'm VERY VERY teary! I've banned myself from watching the news cos I end up ... oh the joys of feral hormones LOL!
Sorry to hear your news Dee, if it is anything at least you know that we can totally understand why you feel the way you do. Im sure i speak for the others when i say not to worry about your "me" post, if it helps then i say type away.
Musik - Yeah, it's been a long time TTC but a LOT has happened in that time (including 3 marriages). The first time I was on Clomid I was uneducated and VERY unhealthy - I only did 2 cycles before I gave up ... all too hard The second time we discovered that the problem was with my (then) DH not me. This time we're fully educated, my PCOS is under control and DH is all good (has 2 kids already) so in a way, I feel like this is the first time I've really had a good hard crack at it ... so to speak LOL!
Anyway, enough waffling from me ... I'm sure you didn't want to know all that lol
Tammara - Absolutely, I agree! I invite anyone to bring on the 'me' posts ... we're all here to support each other
I hope your men are all spoiling you rotten today girls
Hi Girls - Dee sorry to hear, Good luck with the IVF - and I agree please make sure you make it all about you for a bit!!!
As for me - well AF arrived for me yesterday! All day Saturday I was in extreme pain and then they came! I am still in pain. So guess I better ring my specialist to organise this months worth of ultra sounds and like! Oh well - at least I know I O'ed this month been.
I will be ordering some of that Preseed today! because I apparently released two eggs and there is apparently nothing wrong with DH as he has been tested, so obviously they are un-co!
All the best ..
I hope you don't mind if I join this group - I have been reading your posts for awhile and I can relate to so many of you!!
I have PCOS and I am insulin resistant we have been ttc for just over a year. I have been on 500 x 1 met for 3 weeks now with little side effects and I started temping this month aswell. The temping is a little confusing as I have had two jumps in temp in the last week and now I am unsure when I have ovulated!! so we are just baby dancing all the time!
We have had more bad news yesterday with my husband finding out he may have a low sperm count - I am off to my FS tommorrow to have her look at the results because his GP really wasn't helpful!! My FS wants me to go on clomid but I am now unsure if this can happen if he has a low sperm count - does anyone know??
31becc - Sorry to hear that AF is giving you grief - I hope you're feeling better now. Great news that you're O'ing though - I hope the preseed helps and gets you a BFP this cycle
Mahli - Hi & Welcome I hope the Met sorts things out for you - it did for me! I'm the worst person to talk to about temping .... I just don't do it because I get too frustrated with it. I prefer my OPK's - a LOT of people have told me that OPK's don't work for us PCOS girls but they work for me. I've also been told that 'Maybe Baby' won't work and for me, that's true *shrug* I think regular BD'ing is the only way to go when you have no idea when O was or is - that way you know that you've given yourself every chance and there's no regrets at the end of the cycle (you know, that sense of satisfaction knowing that you did everything you could?). Depending on the problem with your DH's sperm, the FS may suggest you go straight to IVF (or ICSI?) or he may be happy for you to proceed with the Met & Clomid - the Clomid will get you O'ing with more eggy's so I guess it can't hurt to give DH's spermy's more targets I hope the FS has some good news for you
AFM - Well AF played a trick on me and arrived a day late - getting my hopes up when she didn't arrive on time Oh well, here we are on CD1 of Cycle # 5 and AF is being a witch!
