    Smile Positive times ahead!

    Just over 2yrs ago I was told to take a forced break from TTC as I had Diabetes Type 2, that needed to come under control. We had been through many years of ups and downs resulting in 2 miscarriages at this point and it was very hard for us to accept. However, I used those 2yrs to lose weight and put the diabetes into remission. Of course I still had PCOS, so even after losing 40kgs I still didn't ovulate on my own.

    We started a combination of clomid/metformin last month and found out that I ovulated first go back on clomid, and it has now resulted in a BFP!

    I tested on Thurs 25th Feb, which was CD28 of my cycle and was very happy to get a BFP on my first HPT. Had a BT the same day and it came back positive.

    That same night I had a bleed and passed a clot, so I've had 2 subsequent BT's since, but everything seems fine at this stage and my hcg levels are rising very nicely.

    I'm also experiencing lots of symptoms - nausea, heightened sense of smell, fuller and tender breasts, vomiting. So I am looking at all the positives in these symptoms and putting all my positive energy into having this baby stick

    I can't wait to get out of the first trimester so I can breathe again lol

    Just wanted to share with my bellybelly friends that have been through this journey with me over the last 6 and a bit years
