PCOS Club!

Maria feel free to vent, that is what we are all here for we all know what each other is going through.

Sometimes are easier to deal with pregnancy and babies than others, sometimes the hurt hits you when you are not expecting it. One of my friends updated FB today gushing about her son and her sisters daughter and how cute they are and how great being a mummy is and i slammed the laptop shut!!

Sorry you are feeling down hun, it does help to vent so feel free to write down everything that is upsetting you!

 

[drakey]

Yeh, I have lost count how many times i had cryed, shouted over how frustrating it all is. I guess we just have to plod on and try to keep positive. I have found that focusing on something else for me is loosing weight and staying healthy helps a little. We are all in the same boat and all know what every one goes through so if venting helps, vent away! xx

Thanks so much ladies

My temp went right back again but my nipples stopped hurting completely This has never happened before! They always hurt quite badly right until af and Im only 10DPO.
I don't have any more tests and am trying to hold out till the weekend. Although I have an appointment with my gynae on Thirsday so it may be a good idea to test before then

How are you all doing today?

 

[drakey]

I know our bodys can be very misleading hun, I think your better just waiting until your appt unless the gyn has asked you to test before hand or will he/she make u do a test while you're there? xx

Im not too bad, had naughty pizza last night but met seems to have been ok with it thank god, if n e thing im a bit constipated. had bit of red bleeding after bd'ing lst night so not sure where that come from, not unusual for me though, i bleed he there and everywhere lol xx

Hi Ladies,

Thought i would give you all an update on me as i haven't been on for a while. So after my scan where i was told i have PCSOs i went to my doc for blood results...which came back fine :-D
Doc wanted to test my other half sperm count which also came back satisfactory!
So doc has referred us to a fertility clinic but at the moment it is a 3 month wait list i feel like i am just in limbo land and dont know my course of action i want to feel as though i am doing something!
How annoying...in the mean time i have been going to my OH family events and am surrounded by babies and i cant help feeling sad and bitter does this make me a bad person?

 

[MariaF]

Luckie - I think most of us have felt bitter about other ladies' pregnancies and babies. I can't bring myself to visit 2 friends with babies - I mean. how sad is that?! But I know it will ruin my mood for days and I don't want that. So don't feel bad about feeling ths way.
3 months isn't too bad, hun. In Sussex there are no more referrals till next March!! And have you read about Surrey stopping all new IVF funding immediately? It's so, so horrible!

My CD21 bloods came and my progesterone is 129 That's super high and I think indicates double ovulation....Don't think anything came out of that though. My boobs stopped hurting completely and I don't "feel" pregnant.

 

[HoneyWright]

Luckie, so sorry for the wait hun What would you like to get out of the FS appointment? Are you IR or is it just the cysts on your ovaries that you have?

Maria, sounds good hun, double ovulation, yippeeeeee

Drakey, glad Met was kind to you.

Ive gone upto 3 tables a day but ate too many biscuits yesterday and got such a bad headache, at least it stopped me eating chocolate at work today One month till my appointment

 

[sma1588]

hey ladies...question-during O and after O do your boobs hurt untill AF comes? i noticed that around the time i think i O'd up untill AF my boobs hurt the whole time. when i dont think i O my boobs dont hurt and dont have AF so do u ladies think it could have been O the other day for me?

 

[HoneyWright]

Yes I get the same, looking back I get many more symptoms on the cycles I think I may have Ovd, sore boobs more cramps the works.

 

[MariaF]

Sma - yep, I get really sore breasts a day after ovulation and they stay sore until 12-14DPO. Except this cycle they stopped hurting at 10DPO... So not sure what's going on

Isn't it amazing how Metformin can make us stick to a diet?! Lol

 

[drakey]

Isn't it amazing how Metformin can make us stick to a diet?! Lol

haha yes, very true... i had an omelette the other day and although i loved it, the thought of eating eggs again made me feel sick. very weird xx

 

[SweetJennie]

Ugh I always judge my cravings by how much is this gonna suck later when Metformin kicks in vs how much I want item x. Eggs don't cause me a lot of problems though. But it could just be because I eat so many. I have a tendency to get queasy after eating them and then it just kinda goes away. Well worth the eggs.

 

[sma1588]

i hate metformin!!!!!!!!!! i cant stick to taking all my pills everyday. there has only been 1 day since june that ive taken 3 pills......

so anyways my back and boobs have been killing me for the last 3 days and wont go away....time for a nice hot shower

 

[drakey]

Isnt it wierd how met can change the way we think about food! on the plus i really enjoyed my WW lasagne last night xx

has anyone tried femara before? I cant have clomid again and was just wondering what the side effects of femara were?

[MariaF]

Pinky and Rowan - welcome!

Rowan - I've not tried femara but I heard it has a lot less side effects than Clomid. Sorry about your losses.xxx I hope femara does the trick for you very soon!

Afm - nothing new. Another bFN today. I think ill just wait for af now. Due at the weekend. Then we'll be taking a break until Jan and then hopefully IUI in Jan
