Need to Vent & have support from fellow BnB :)

[Sara2009]

Hello Everyone! I need to vent and this is the only place i want to do it
My hubby and I are TTC and i am a little down right now (and i have been sick for 3 days)... We had a little problem with my first OB/GYN, so last month i switched and saw a new Dr. And she is great! she said just due to hearing about my irregular periods, being overweight and a few other symptoms she said i have PCOS. and prescribed me Metformin and Clomid.( I had just had my period April 29-May 6th) So she said we had missed that month. But to start the metformin once a day for 2 weeks and we would work up to 3 a day and i would take these all through the end of my first trimester. and that the next time AF appeared i would take the clomid. or if i didnt start to test. Well here is my problem.. I got a little upset due to the PCOS news I never went and got my meds until a few days ago. now i feel like i dont know a plan, I have not had a period since April 29th. so im guessing first step is to take a PG test and i need to start my metformin. im just so confused and mad at myself for getting off track...i want a baby so bad i am 23 years old my OH is 32 and i know he wants kids before he gets "too old" as he says... and just within the last 2 weeks i now have 3 people that are very close to me tell me they are pregnant... 2 of them got married a year after me.. one was just married this last december and she is due in September. I am very happy for them but upset at the same time it has not happened for us yet...... Sorry its so long just needed to get this off my chest and get some opinions from people who understand what im going through i just feel like crying

im sorry u feel like this but just try to get urself back on track take ur meds and it is very normal for u to feel the way u do esspecially hearing about other ppl who are preg. it makes u think ur the only one on earth who cant...well ur not and it will happen but the only way it can happen is to get ur mind back on track and do what needs to be done. good luck hope u feel better soon

Sara, Go back and see your doctor and ask their advice? Can you do that? Explain that you forgot to get your meds and you're a bit confused as to what you're supposed to be doing/when etc.

It's a lot to take in one consultation, so i'm sure they wont mind!! If you cant go back, can you arrange a telephone consultation, so they can check your records and have a chat?

Hope it works out ok. xxx

Totally go talk to your Doc. I regularly call the nurse just to discuss questions. They are always super helpful and often more patient than the doc who has only a limited amount of time for phone calls.

Don't feel bad. Everyone has challenges. I herd this the other day....even though the grass looks greener on the other side remember you will still have to mow it. I think the best way to invite awesomeness into your life is to rejoice for others when it is their turn.

Glad you found a great doctor! Mine is pain in the ***! I have to find a new but doesn't really pay since I don't have insurance as of august until next May!!!
But you should be able to call your doctors nurse and ask questions, that is part of their job! Good luck!!!

sorry to hear you are having problems, i agree that you should go back to your doctor and get some more advice.
one thing i just want to check, have you had a scan to confirm your diagnosed pcos?
its just that i was diagnosed with it from my sysmptoms which were similar to yours as hadnt had a cycle for 6 months, but when i went for the scan it showed it wasnt pcos at all. luckily due to sods law my cycle turned up the day before the scan and since then for some reason my cycles have been a regular every 38 days.
not to put a downer on anything it's just that if mistakes could be made with my diagnosis, could the same be with yourself and therefore need different medication to sort it out? fx for you though that it all gets sorted soon and you get your bfp.x

Thanks ladies for all your support.. It really means alot when your trying to keep your TTC a secrete the only people that know we are trying besides the OH and myself are my 2 BFF's, my sister and my hubbys Best friend. I have not had any tests to confirm the PCOS. She just said that if you have 2 or more symptoms that you automaticly have it. Which sounds a little weird to me.. I did call the doctor and the nurse said to just go ahead and start the Metformin and when/if shows start the Clomid if not call and they will call something in. I want a baby so bad it hurts.. i have been praying every night that it will happen for us. Im scared at the same time but so ready the amazing Hubby will be an awesome dad.. he has 2 neices and he is the godfather to the youngest who is 4 and he treats them like princess' and i just know he is going to be AWESOME with our kids one day and i just want it to happen sooner than later...

But thank you everyone for awesome advice and listening to my big ol' rant
