Hi ladies hope you are doing great.
@skweek35 congrats on the result of your HSG, hopefully it will give that extra boost in fertility over the next few months and you wil be telling us how you got your bfp, my fingers are crossed for you. What was the experience of the HSG like? Any pain?
Welcome to tillyb and bluefly I hope your stay on here is short and sweet.
@cabby, I know exactly how you feel, for such a long time I would just tell people that we weren't ready yet and we wanted to enjoy our marriage for a while. It made it especially harder when parents and family members were putting pressure on us, because in my culture they expect you to be pregnant usually within the first year of marriage, DH and I are coming up to 2 years of marriage now. I also saw people that i knew who were getting preggers within just a few months of getting married. Sometimes I felt a bit ashamed or bad that I was failing at getting pregnant.
In fact yesterday I went for my husbands cousins baby shower, they got married in 2010 like we did. Whilst there I saw so many young coupls that I knew, about 8 in total, all of them got married within the last few years, some before us and some after us but all of them had babies, apart from me and my DH. I did feel a little bit conscious but I just tried not to let it get to me. One of the couples, who actually got pregnant the month after they got married, asked me when I was going to have a baby. I just told them I was ready and hopefully it will happen soon, but in the meantime we are going to enjoy every moment of being a young married couple with no kids. So I started talking about how we are going to las Vegas in a few months and all the freedom to do what we want.
On the way home I asked my husband if he felt a bit weird being the only ones without kids, and he said no.
I think once you take the pressure off yourself it's a lot easier not to feel so bad, and it's one of the reasons I decided to write a blog, it released so much pressure, I realld do recommend it. It gave me the courage to be able to tell the people close to me that I have pcos and that it may take me a bit longer to get pregnant and everybody has been super supportive.
Just to give you a quick update, I had my transvaginal on Wednesday and the doctor said everything looked great, I saw all the eggs in my ovaries, I had so many. It was not painful, just uncomfortable, it felt like really really deep penetration so to speak. So hopefully my experience will be good and tubes all clear and I will get that extra boost of fertility soon.

I'm so touched by your story. You are such a strong person to have gone through what you have. Continue being that way and you will have a healthy baby soon.
! Hopefully this is your month!
