hi everyone

i have been ttc for 5 years now and have been diagnosed with pcos and type 2 diabetes i have had 3 pregnancy losses.

I am now on metformin to help my diabetes but i am hoping that it will help me conceive aswell.

Hope that we all get our bfp.

Welcome! I'm so sorry to hear about your losses. I know the metformin has helped me tremendously. I don't have diabetes, but do have pcos and I'm insulin resistant, and my levels for that have gone from 21 to 16 in just 3 months! I'm hoping to keep that trend up and get it down to a 'normal' level of 7 or below.

I believe that I am currently pregnant, and if I am, then I have to attribute it to metformin. It helped get my cycles back and on track complete with ovulation. I should know for sure one way or another within the next 7 hours when I get the results from my quant blood test.

I'm hoping that the metformin helps you as much as it did me and gets you that sticky bean very soon!

Hey ladies! Looked like I missed a lot this morning! Welcome nuttysj87! I'm so sorry to hear about your losses I know its got to be so hard.

I agree with ya'll on some people being ridiculous with having babies. And I don't think its fair that they get to have so many, so easily. My sister in law told me the other day that she was going to start trying again in April of next year. In 4 months. I have been TTC since BEFORE they started TTC. She has already had one beautiful happy baby who is now 1yr old, and it about to start trying for the next one in a few months. It hurts so bad. And all the people who get abortions...I hate it. I can't believe they could get such a blessing and not even have an ounce of dignity. It is a lot easier to be able to come on here an talk to women who have the same problems I have and know I'm not alone in this battle to conceive. I just feel so defeated sometimes, like right now. I try to stay positive, but with all the "symptoms" I was having and getting negative after negative test, it just doesn't make since to me. But I can't wait to hear what comes of your blood test dodgercpkl!!

My blood test result came back POSITIVE! I'm pregnant and totally on right now! I caught it REALLLY REALLLY early with the hpt's. My hCG level on the blood test from yesterday was 10! No wonder it's not showing up on any of the other tests right now.... lol

I so hoping that all of you ladies follow me into pregnancy soon. I'm wishing tons of to you all!

Haha! You are so right. I knew all along and I let myself be tricked into thinking I was wrong about it for a bit. I'm so glad they were wrong the first time too!!!

Hey BH2010, are you still out there somewhere? You kinda fell off the map and I haven't heard anything in a while! Just wondering how things are working out for you!

For everyone, I've got an issue. My hubby and I are adopting a new Boykin and we can't think of a name for her. We've got time since she's only 3 weeks old and can't leave momma yet, but we've been calling her "Curly" and it just doesn't click. So if anyone has a suggestion of a good name, that would be GREAT! Thanks ladies! Off to do school work. Yuck! Hope eveyones headin towards a BFP for Christmas!!!

 

[jeoestreich]

Do you have a picture of her? It is always hard to name a dog for me unless I have a picture to look at.

But just off the top of my head:
Lola
Leelu
Leena
Suzie Q
Cherry

 

[babyjla]

Yeah, but I can't figure out how to add photo's onto the thread haha. The link is a picture of a puppy (not her) that looks identical to her My husband was thinking "Hen' because the father's name is "Drake" like ducks...but their not a breeding pair so thats kind of silly I think.

[jeoestreich]

For some reason the name Cocoa Puff jumped into my head.

 

[dodgercpkl]

Once I saw the pic, I love the name Susie Q! Such an adorable breed!

 

[babyjla]

Haha, I don't think my hubby would go for Susie Q. Although I have had a lot of people suggest that name! I've thought about Coco, but it just seems so obvious lol. Its so hard deciding!

 

[dodgercpkl]

What about doing something like Cinnamon? My dog is named Ginger (Gingi for short).

 

[jeoestreich]

You could do the opposite and call your dog Vanilla or Snowy or something like that.

 

[babyjla]

Haha, that would be funny. Name her snowball lol. My husband HATES everything cinnamon! I should sooo name her that! lol. Then when he says "I HATE CINNAMON!" I can prove him wrong lol.

 

[dodgercpkl]

lol That'd be funny! What about Snickerdoodle? (can you tell I'm trying to think of brown item names? )

 

[babyjla]

Lol, yes! Awe thats kinda cute. We could call her "Snickers" for short...Hmmmm!

 

[dodgercpkl]
