Bellys to Bumps

Ooft twinkle i would not have been happy either. David knows that for one week every month his little man is all mine lol

Sucks about the cystitis hun xxx
 
Awww twinkle sorry you're having a bad day! :hugs: I would have been so annoyed too - I know you said that he has lazy swimmers but does he know that every other day means releasing those swimmers every other day, not just sex every other day? You never know, men sometimes don't think straight about these things!
 
Honestly Twinks - what is WRONG with these husbands of ours, eh?! I'd be FURIOUS if I were you, esp as he has lazy swimmers. Is he taking vits? And cystitis sounds painful - I've not had it myself (god knows how with all the bonking whilst TTC!) but I did have kidney problems which made weeing really hard, having to go often with nothing coming out. It didn't hurt/sting though which I guess is the most annoying thing? Drink lots of cranberry juice chick, but I'm sure you already knew that (it worked with helping my kidneys a bit). Big :hugs:

I bet he was mortified! Tell him we're all talking about it now. Might stop him next time :p
 
That is sooooooo cruel - but I love it!!! Go on Twinks tell him we're all talking about his solo mission t'other day :haha:!
Hope everyone is well - all good at my end (update in journal if interested).

Oh he knows - he was just being a selfish knob!!

I shall tell him when he gets home - although he knows about my BnB addiction so has probably guessed I've told you all!!

Hello all...I stumbled upon this thread and I thought it'd be perfect to be a part of...just afraid..I surly don't want to be judged as I am 21 and have been ttc for 27 months with my husband (been married for 3 years now) :/ well my story is after being on the pill for 3 years my periods became super irregular :( and before BC from the time I was 10 til 16 my periods regulated themselves and they were so regular I could tell someone the exact moment I was going to get it.. After the pill & highschool I gained a good 70lbs that just will not go away no matter how much I try. I'm 260lbd...give or take...I fluctuate weekly. Exercise and diet is very much a part of my life as of the beginning of the year because I'm really serious about this...I just need people to talk to who understand. I'm trying the more natural route because I'm not sure if my DR will really help me. I'm taking vitamins along with diet/exercise and vitex (recommended to me by a friend) so who knows. I just feel like it's all on my shoulders...haven't had a period since 4/2010 =( I've been tested for pcos, thyroid conditions...nothing. So right now I'm trying to catch up on the posts but I truly look forward to speaking with all you ladies and hope we all achieve the same goal this year :)

Sorry for the rant :/ my names Amanda...that might help to add lol
 
Hi Amanda :hi: You have come to the right place hun. We are all workin towards the same goal and the ladies on here are fab for support and advice and will definately not judge.

Are u on any sort of plan like slimming world or weightwatchers?

Good luck hun xxx
 
Hi

Noone will judge you here, all going through the same thing so we cant rly can we :)

I have PCOS btw and my blood tests are fine, there are other symptoms you can use for a diagnoses, if your Dr is clueless then Id ask for a referral to a specialist if poss.
 
I was thinkin with the irregular periods and bein unable to lose weight it does sound like PCOS xx
 
Yeah. Maybe try a low/controlled carb diet, helps a lot with PCOS to lose weight. Metformin is also good, strictly is for PCOS but can be prescribed for anovulation in general and the only main/common side effect is going to the loo 40 times a day, which is good for losing weight anyway :)
 
I just want to say thanks for the both of you. :) And yes I actually joined recently with my husband.. We were on it before, then slacked off (we've been under a lot of stress which leads us to eating urrrgg) but I'm determined to not let my weight and emotions get the best of me.. Lol. I just keep thinking a baby will be so worth it in the end if I can lose what I have to...ANd I heard that pcos is diagnosed other ways..I just remember my ovaries being fine when they did a US not too long ago but who knows. Doc says lose weight, & everything will be easier...as if I don't already know lol. Definitely will take your advice on looking for a specialist lol....Just scared of what my uterus must look like after all this time w/o AF. :-/

Do any of you chart? I'm thinking it may help but I'm just curious.. Or is there anything else you ladies do to aid in ttc? Medications..vitamins..diet etc?

Thanks :-) I may have a lot of questions so I hope I don't seem annoying or anything...I just realized I have a lot to learn :O
 
My pcos was diagnosed as I had been ttc over a year and in the past had borderline blood glucose. No hairiness, elevated hormones, no cysts even.

Some ppl take evening primrose oil and vitex as you take. Metformin is the one you can get prescribed tho
 
Oh yeah I definitely have it in the back of my mind that I may (probably) have it..I guess I just don't want to believe it! I see my doc soon hopefully shell be more helpful...I'm even afraid of HER judging me that i shy away from asking certain things. (bad I know). -_- thanks for the diet advice...love my carbs but gotta sacrifice things sometimes lol :p
 
You could try low gi instead of low carb. I think it focuses on more wholewheat stuff rather then no carbs at all. Might be a bit easier and I'm sure the glucose conversion issue would be helped in the same way
 
Welcome Amanda, the girls are right, nobody will judge you here.

Twinkle, shame on DH! I hope you let him know how unfair he was being. I shall never understand men sometimes *bangs head*

:hi: to everyone else :hugs:
 
That reminds me that when I was 18/19 (cAnt remember) my old doctor notice a hair on my nipple that I hadn't noticed but I told her I have extra hair under my chin ...not too much and that I have to shave often but she wasn't worried about that(I just didn't like having stubble the day after I shave my legs!) but we did testing and my testosterone was elevated but she told me the birth control she was switching me to would help (idk) I'm going to modify my diet and hopefully my doctor can give me something. But last time we talked about any medicine/testing she just said "lost wt first" blah blah blah...my favorite saying!! But well see if I can be more convincing lol
 
go to another dr if shes useless. you'll lose weight easier with metformin if it is pcos which it does sound like. if youve a history of high testosterone then, well, pcos doesnt go away, it just gets controlled, you might have it well controlled atm ie your testosterone lvls are normal, doesnt mean theres not other affects tho.
