BFP! (begging to be fat and pregnant)

[mrskcbrown]

mrskcbrown - did they keep you on metformin?

The day I got my BFP, I stopped taking metformin. I hated it so much! When I went to get my betas done, my dr said to take the metformin for an additional 2 weeks. I said well, Ive stopped taking it already. Then she said well, everything will be fine. You no longer have to take it unless you want to. Then she put me on progesterone suppositories for a while.

Does your dr want you to still take them?

Hey girls I tested this morning and now I'm just waiting for flow so I can start over again

 

[Juniper]

I am sorry Brooke 'Member it ain't over til AF arrives. How many dpo are you?

Have any of you ladies that take/have taken Metformin been diagnosed with diabetes? I am wondering if that is the first think that the dr will try since I have diabetes. I have it pretty well under control as far as glucose levels go, so it will be interesting to hear what the dr has to say...

Doing another opk today... 2 hours and 25 mins 'til I get to pee!

My doctor said to keep taking them for now.

I need to let you ladies know what's going on. I started spotting day before yesterday. It looked more orange than anything, so I didn't worry to much. Yesterday it began to be a little more, like a 50 cent piece, and looking a little redder. I called and talked to a nurse and she said I was fine. Today at work, I went to the restroom and had blood, still not bright red like AF, on my undies. I made an appt. for today at 3:15pm. My doctor checked me and said the only thing she saw wrong was my bleeding. She said she had to refer to me as 'premiscarriage.' She ordered me 3 more beta tests. Today was first. I'm up to 407. I go again Saturday and Tuesday. I also see her again Tuesday afternoon.

I had to leave work early today, so I spoke with my boss. He knows now, but he's very understanding and told me he had a big hug waiting for me the next time we saw each other. Which is really nice. We have never hugged. haha. But he was really supportive and told me to do whatever I needed to do and he would find a way to work around me. That made me feel so lucky.

Please pray for me and this baby. I know if Saturday's number doesn't look good, that we're in trouble.

I know that everything is up to God and I have to trust him.

 

[Juniper]

Jrc - You are in my prayers. I really hope that things look great on Saturday! Could the dr give you progesterone?

 

[BWilliams]

Juniper I take metformin for pcos and they say having pcos you are pre-diabetic but my doctor doesn't beileve you can be pre-diabetic you either have it or you don't. So I just ordered my testing kit. :-\ Jrc- I'm praying for you and baby bean Juniper I'm 13dpo and af is due saturday

 

[Juniper]

Brooke - Only 13 dpo! You are definitely not out yet! fxed for you. Thanks for the info... Very interesting... You know, it is so frustrating because I have SO many symptoms for PCOS except missed ovulation. As far as know I have NEVER missed an ovulation! That is one of the reasons why I got the new opks... I want to double check myself..

 

[Shey]

jrc I will keep you and bub in my thoughts and prayers.

 

[jrc10]

I will ask her on Tuesday, as long as things are looking good with my levels. That's a good idea.

Thanks guys.

JRC: your numbers have went up nicely. I too bled in the beginning and man I was scared. It ended up being implantation bleeding. Im hoping the same for you. Im sure your numbers will go up and I will be praying for you. I know the beginning is such a delicate time and that you just want to make sure all is right with your baby. Praying hard!

@Juniper: Im not diabetic and had to take met. I was borderline at the time though.

@brooke: you are not out yet! Did you say you charted ur cycles? Just wondering because I was going to ask to look at your chart. Dont give up yet!

AFM, just tired and lazy. Ready for next month and my baby shower this weekend.

 

[BWilliams]

Thanks girls...Juniper I'm pretty sure you can have pcos and still ovulate...I'm thinking maybe about taking a break from fertility meds this month I'm still going to take metformin and prenatals just no clomid or fermara but I'm not sure yet

Reading what you wrote to me made me want to cry. Thank you so much. I know that Saturday is the day that will give us some answers. I have more hope now. I'm just going to take one day at a time and see what happens.

 

[Juniper]

Hi Girls - We just got back from Dh'd appt with our new dr. Mine is tomorrow, but we discussed some of the fertility stuff and she wants us to see a specialist, so I came home and made an appt for Feb 2. She is doing blood work of dh to get things started and I am guess she will do the same for me tomorrow...

Hope everyone is doing well!

 

[jrc10]

mrskcbrown - I was curious to know how much you bled. If you don't mind sharing.

 

[BWilliams]

Juniper that's exciting good luck!!! As for me af is showing her face so I'm going to call the doctor in the am and go in for an exam...hopefully something good will happen this month

 

[mrskcbrown]

mrskcbrown - I was curious to know how much you bled. If you don't mind sharing.

Not much, cant really remember but it was red and I was scared to death! I called the DR and she said it was normal and that it was probably implantation because I found out very soon that I was BFP. I think at 3w6d. She told me if I was filling up a pad then I needed to come in to the office to see her. After that it kinda tapered off for a few days getting lighter and lighter.

I pray none of this is the case for you!

 

[BWilliams]

Well af is here and I go today for my exam...I think I'm going to see about uping my metformin and get on clomid

 

[Juniper]

Brooke - I am sorry to hear that the witch got you, but I am glad that you are moving forward. That is the best thing that we can do... Look for answers and to toward the future.

So I just got back from the dr. I was there for 3 1/2 hours. She took 9 viles of blood and did a 2 hour glucose test. She said that I most definitely have PCOS and that Met is in my near future, but I am not going to start it quite yet. I need to have several tests done first..

I thought I should let you all know what's up now. I've passed two large clots today. We will see how my numbers are tomorrow and Tuesday. I'm pretty sure that it's over. Sorry if I was graphic, but I just kind of have a feeling. You never know though...We'll see.

I noticed I had only posted 666 posts, so I thought I should probably do another one especially since it's such a sensitive time.

I hope you are all well and I'll be thinking about you and getting your BFP's very soon!
