African or African-Americans TTC

InLuv- Miss you on here but we all need a break sometimes, come back soon!

Ebony- Welcome, you will love it here! The ladies ROCK!

MrsKC- Fx that you little one will be here soon!

Ready- Hello!
 
Hey ladies,

I hope everyone is keeping warm. It is 19 degress in Texas. Yes in Texas. :haha: No one believes me when I tell them it is that cold in Texas sometimes I don't believe it either.

I hope all is well with everyone.
 
Ready- Wow its that cold in Texas? I'm in NC and although it's been pretty cold lately, today it is a lovely sunny and 70 degrees; not that I'm trying to rub it in!:haha:

Sure you're not. LOL I wish I was there right now. But by Sunday it is suppose to get to 60-65. :shrug:
 
Welcome EbonyUnique! I am so happy that you have joined us. Im sorry to hear about your losses though. You are right the devil is not going to win! Im going to pray for you and with you.

I too have PCOS and it took me a long while to conceive. I eventually went to a fertility specialist who put me on metformin and eventually thats how I conceived. Im praying everything works out for you and I hope you stick around. These are some very nice ladies!:hugs:

Thanks for the welcome. Metformin from a FS is exactly how I conceived. It was the first time conceiving without a fertility med. It shocked me because I wasn't actively TTC. I would definitely say that you are going to be heading to Labor and Delivery soon! Soft and squishy is a very good thing!!!

Ready - sorry for your loss. It's not an easy thing to go through. Thank you for the warm welcome.

Future - Thanks for the welcome. I was reading most of your posts.. and I can see you are some good people to be around. Very supportive indeed.

AFM... This is the toughest winter we have had in NY in a long time! The snow just keeps coming... faster than the mayor can get it off the streets. It's in the upper 20's here... but feels like much colder if you ask my toes.

Thanks! I miss the cold so much. Im from Chicago and I would love to be there in this snow. Living in the south you dont get much snow. Cold weather but only maybe two snow days a year. Then its only like 3 inches:shrug:. My hubby is from VA and he misses the snow as well.

I agree the metformin works well. I had to take it for a few months before I actually conceived though. I didnt like the side effects, so the DR put me on an extended release one:thumbup:.

My legs, feet and hands are swollen like balloons! Im trying to make it until next friday but I dont know, tomorrow may be my last day:shrug:. Trying not to waste my days sitting around doing nothing:winkwink:.
 
I am looking forward to meeting little Malcolm.

@Kareen: I didnt know you had 3 little boys now. Guess I missed it:winkwink:. What are their ages?

@floppyears: I am excited about a boy now. At first I really wanted another girl but Im blessed!

My stomach is tightening and releasing but no pain:shrug:. I go to DRs tomorrow, I guess Ill ask why this is happening.:thumbup: Ill be full term tomorrow as well too.:cloud9:

Ladies in waiting, I had to realize that God's timing is perfect. I thought it would never happen but it did and everything was stacked against us, low sperm, low morphology, PCOS, irregular cycles. Prayer is the key and remember what God has done for one, He will definitely do for you! He is no respector of persons!:hugs: Thank God, imagine if He was like that. It would be so unfair.

:dust::dust:

My boys are 11, 7 and now this little one. Maybe next time we will get a girl ;-)

Not too much longer for you. Any day now. My prayers are with you, your hubby and daughter. Can't wait to see little Malcolm! xoxox
 
Welcome Ebony. Sorry to hear about your loss. We cn all relate here. Feel free to ask us anything. We are here for support :)
 
I was finally approved for my leave of absence. I will be out from Feb 18-May 19! My students get out of school May 20!:happydance: Then Ill be out until August. They are also going to pay me for 4 weeks and then after that disability will pay for another 6-8 weeks. Which will bring me right to 12 weeks, which is exactly how long I will be out!:happydance: I am still going to leave next friday but Im just going to use about 6 of my sick days before my leave kicks in.

God is so awesome with how He worked this out in our favor. We were concerned with finances but God worked it out once again. Then we will have our tax refund as well and I plan to put that in savings for a rainy day. I tell you again, tithing works, trust God even when you think you dont have it, or things are not what they seem, I promise He has your back. Ok I wont get too spiritual but Im about to shout over here:yipee::yipee:

:hugs::hugs:

Hey ladies,

Mrsk, that is great news. I am so glad you start leave today. I think baby boy is going to come real soon.

AFM, we had no work today because of all the ice on the roads. I am just at home being lazy. LOL

MrsKC...so nice that you are off work now. You can put those finishing touches on those baby preparations ;-)
