Hi ladies :wave: I hope everyone is doing well!

Aein - have a safe trip! Glad to hear that this cycle is going better than last

Baby - haven't popped it out yet! I'm almost 17 weeks, which is insane tho - time is going by so fast!

Stayhopeful - how are you feeling about the ivf stuff so far? Do you know which stims you'll be using?

Hippie, markswife, & Bunny - I'm so glad to hear things are going well! GL with your upcoming scans / tests!

AlyCon - I'm so glad that things are going well!

How are all the other ladies doing?? SweetMel, lichongchai, Fallen?

to all

Afm - DH and I just got back from Washington, DC - we were there for a cousin's wedding and made a mini vacation out of it, which was really nice. I have my appt for my 19 week anatomy scan on June 10th and (as long as LO cooperates) we should be able to find out the gender then! I'll keep all you ladies updated!

Doing ok. Nice to know that you are doing well. Gender scan is the most exciting time. Although its one way or the other, the fact that its unknown makes it even more exciting and mysterious.

Oh! Yes, it was a better cycle for you that the last one!!

I believe you are travelling to Pakistan right? I am from India, so that makes us neighbours

 

[Aein]

ohh thts cool Lichon i've Indian neighbours one from Mumbai and other frm Kerala... plus i know many people frm India, you are frm which area

 

[lichongchai]

I am from Kerala too! Actually many families from our region have atleast one or two members working in the middle east.

The world is such a small place

 

[Aein]

Yes Lich i agreed with you, even my ngbr told me when Saudi labour law changed , how everyone in Kerala was reacting and even they were more uptodate for this news

so can you speak Hindi or not? you from Hinduism or anyother

 

[lichongchai]

Yes I do speak Hindi. My native tongue is Malayalam though. Hindi language is compulsory in schools in India.

 

[Aein]

thsys cool Lich my Kerala neighbour dont speak but understand some some

Well, just wanted to update that I think the witch may have FINALLY arrived. Only 3 months later Anyways, its still light, but its something! Whoo hooo.

 

[Bunny_Boo]

That's great baby! I hope it will kick start a normal cycle now! Good luck

 

[babyjla]

Thanks bunny. It did! I'm currently on CD4 & taking my 100mg of Clomid. This is our last round of trying before we go to the specialist in July. FX'd we don't need the specialist!!

 

[Bunny_Boo]

I have my fingers firmly crossed for you! Stay relaxed and enjoy bding Hope this is the cycle!!

 

[Isobel345]

Has anyone here tried Inositol to regulate cycles? I just got some after reading some posts saying it worked to lengthen the luteal phase. Fingers are crossed that it works! When I did a Google search I found https://www.pcosdiva.com/2012/07/de-mystifying-myo-inositol/
Any opinions? Experiences? Thanks in advance!

 

[krissie328]

Hey Isobel I am currently taking it. I have noticed a lot of changes and I am feeling so much better. I am still taking metformin but I am trying to get my carbs to under 50 a day and go off the metformin since it isn't working that well for me. I am hoping my cycle starts soon as I am on CD 34 now.

 

[markswife10]

Still cheering on all of you ladies!!!! We need some more BFP's in this group!

 

[babyjla]

Hi ladies, how is everyone? I'm good, AF just left & I took my last round of Clomid before we go to the fs. I'm excited to try one last time before we go into the more serious stuff. Fx'd it works!

Isobel, I can't speculate on that. Never even heard of it! Fx'd it works for you though!

 

[StayHopeful]

Good luck with this round of clomid, babyj! I'm currently waiting on AF, hopefully she'll be here early next week and then I'll start my IVF injections. Right now we're looking at a retrieval and transfer at the end of the month.

 

[krissie328]

Good luck baby...

Congrats stayhopeful... That seems exciting for you.

Inositol is similar to metformin in its effects. However in studies of women with PCOS it appears to be more effective at restoring ovulation and periods. It also has an increase for pregnancy.

I started it a couple weeks ago along with my metformin. My mood is so much better as it also works on anxiety and depression. And I can feel stuff going on in my body. I plan to take it for the next three months when my metformin runs out and go from there.

I have also started a prenatal and D3 and a B100.

Now if I could get the diet under control.
