A little backstory...
When I was 18, I had my son Anthony. When he was 3, I started TTC Baby #2. I got diagnosed with PCOS and blocked tubes after a year with no success. I continued TTC for an additional 2 1/2 years before i got treatment.
First, my OBGYN wouldnt help me. They said I would only conceive via IVF and would never conceive naturally again and that I was high risk for endometrial cancer, AND that I would eventually need a hysterectomy.
Then I went to an RE out of state. He had me try 5 rounds of clomid. All
I tried to see the RE personally isntead of the nurses and he refused to see me, so I left him.
THen I went to an RE in a Boston Hospital. She again told me I would need IVF, and that clomid, IUIs are too dangerous with my blocked tubes. She put it through to my insurance, and they rejected it. She decided not to fight it and do an IUI on me, even though she previously told me it was too dangerous. Another
I didnt like that she would rather put my life at risk than fight my insurance company, so I left. I was referred by a friend to go to Boston IVF. They fought my insurance company and I got IVF.
Unfortunately, I miscarried after 6 weeks. We did another IVF and another but this time, I carried to term and had my beautifl baby boy April 14 2015.
Since I have PCOS, I dont get my period without medication. But before I can take the medication, I have to take a pregnancy test just to make sure, cuz its harmful to a fetus. So, I took a pregnancy test and it was the faintest positive. I figured it was leftover HCG from my pregnancy, but would wait a few days and take another one before I took the pills. Well, today is 4 days later...and there is my test...
After all my heartache, all the struggles, all the sleepless nights, being told I would never conceive naturally again...i did on my own without even trying...its crazy!

I tried for my current pregnancy for over a year, got diagnosed with PCOS and told I'd really struggle to convince naturally.. Yet, the month we relaxed and stopped really trying -
