I got my bfp :) Dh and I found out early last week that I am indeed pregnant. I had a chemical in Feb and am very, very nervous, but totally excited nonetheless! This has been the toughest journey of my life and I am so thankful to have met some awesome ladies on this website. I feel a little premature announcing this as I have not had a ultrasound yet, but have had hcg tests that are doubling nicely! So, if anyone of you pray, please say a prayer that everything goes okay this time around. I just wanted to say do not give up..I am praying for all you ladies who are going through a emotional and physical rollercoaster!!!

Thanks ladies! Mellybee, do not give up. I have another story for your :) I ran into a friends sister the other day who had been ttc since getting married in, like, 97! They went through adoption and when their daughter was 10 months old, one day, but total surprise she found out she was pregnant!!! She now has a 7 week old healthy, cute as a button, little boy!! That inspired me! I thought..how amazing..someone tries for soo long and then out of nowhere and on their own
she gets pregnant! Hang in there..God is performing Miracles everyday. I really really do believe everything happens for a reason and this is in Gods timing. I love God, but I admit I did hate hearing that. My MIL is going through a breast cancer scare and I think this is really helping her get through..it is giving her strength and hope and I know this is more than just a blessing to me and my dh, but our whole family! So, hang in there! Lucy and Staci..thank you soo much!! I am praying for you girls as well! Hang in there and God Bless :)

Well, lets see..we started ttc shortly after our wedding. We were married in Sept and in January we had a "Scare"(I cant believe now those existed! ha!) to where we thought I was pregnat, well I wasnt and we were disapointed..decided to ttc immediatly. I stopped the pill and my cycles were anywhere from 30-45 days long..then they got longer and longer..had one that was 105 days. We tried, kept thinking it would happen on its own and it didnt. We used OPKS and timed everything right and nothing. Went to the DR in October of last year, where I was diagnosed with PCOS and dh a slight motility problem..thought to have stemmed from a procedure he had on his urethra when he was a toddler. He started taking Fertilaid and I started the metformin my DR started me on. Well, in Feb I had a chemical..my Dr , who had wanted me to start clomid right away before that and wanted to up my dosage before that, decided he wanted to do nothing and just wait..I had a serious problem with that. Then, when I told him that we were hurting and wanted to be pregnant (there is absolutely no hard in upping a metformin dosage at least 250mg or so I think at least), he refused and said we will just have to wait and see if it happens..bc it may not. He told me that my ovaries were just covered with cysts and that my eggs didnt look very good for my young age. He hurt my feelings and I left that office and never saw him again. Two weeks later, we first met with our now wonderful DR. We LOVE him! He doubled my dosage right away..we kinda stood on that for a while and then in June decided to start clomid. DH and I went on vacation so we decided to wait until July to begin clomid. I had an ultrasound before and the tech was so so so nice. She said that I had a slightly tilted uterus, that I had a TON of healthy looking eggs and that my cysts really werent that bad. I felt so much better. So, we started clomid that month. I took 50mg and ovulated on cd 15!!! WHOO HOO! Had a 28 day cycle for the first time since giong off bc. I wasnt pregnant , though, so the next cycle we boosted it to 100mg and low and behold that must have did the trick. Another thing that I really feel that helped..is that DH and I only had sex everyother day. The DR had said his problem wasnt enough for it to really have much effect, but I think bc we both enjoyed it more and bc his penis wasnt falling off by the time we got to ovulation that we were more relaxed :) We also used preseed every time we bd! This is a long story, so I hope it helps some of u and I hope u guys are given hope by it. I also wanted to say I got my 4th hcg back today..we were hoping for at least a 428 and its 460.9! Thanks again!
