Hello!
I'm new to this group, but my husband and I are trying to conceive, so I thought this might be a nice resource for me!
I was diagnosed with PCOS while I was in high school (I'm now 27), and I've never had regular cycles in my life. Due to constant bleeding, I've been on the Mirena and on the NuvaRing continuously (didn't leave it out for a week, per my doctor's advice) for the last several years. I came off all birth control in January, and have only had two periods since then. It has been incredibly frustrating since we are now ready to bring a little one into this world!!
I did one cycle of Provera to induce a period followed by 50 mg of Clomid on CD 3-7 in August 2018. I did not ovulate in that cycle based on my OPK's and also confirmed by the 21 day blood draw (my progesterone was 0.36.) This cycle, I did another round of Provera and 100 mg of Clomid, again CD 3-7. I've had positive OPK's the last 3 days, so I think I finally ovulated on CD 17-18! I don't temp because my sleep schedule is really inconsistent due to work. (Note: I also took Inositol this cycle --- does anyone have any experience with this?!?! Not sure when to stop taking it now.) Anyway, now we are in the two week wait!!!!!!!!!!!!
We have the trip of a lifetime planned for this weekend (it was a wedding gift from my husband's parents), so that will be a nice distraction. I think it would be the greatest ending to this amazing trip to find out we are expecting! If I do get pregnant this month, baby would be due the week of my hubby's birthday! The stars seem to have aligned, but baby dust and prayers are certainly welcome.
Also, any other advice to get through the TWW would be appreciated!!
