Hello and welcome to all the new ladies.
Argomez: I think of you often and all the words of encouragement you've given to so many people along your journey! You truly are amazing and I can't wait until I hear your BBP news! I pray it comes soon! You are so deserving and I believe you will be the best mamma out there!!
Afm: Tomorrow is my due date and things have started to happen already so that's a good sign :) Just a recap of our journey: ttc 16 months. 10 of those cycles didn't even O. Told I have PCOS. went on clomid for 4 months the last two cycles paired it with metformin(1500mg), O'd on both those cycles and conceived on cycle 4 of clomid.(150mg). All the ultra sound techs and nurses are so sweet and super excited when they hear we're having a clomid baby :) It's almost like they get extra excited...it's so sweet! I wish everybody thick baby dust and I'm so happy to hear that there have been many lately! This community of women is such a comfort place to come and just be. I know it's hard being around people who just don't understand how hard of a journey it can be. Try to be patient with them, I found explaining my situation to people actually opened doors to others who were secretly struggling as well as able to inform those who didn't understand how to treat me. I'm so thankful for this group and although I don't comment often I am always checking in and praying for you ladies!

priceless - Thank you so much for your kind words; they mean so much to me! Truly from the bottom of my heart. I am praying for such a beautiful delivery for you and your little one, I can't wait for you to hold that baby in your arms and remind me how worth it it's going to be.

Glad to see some of the ladies back on this site! It definitely has been not as active. But I'm glad that most of you ladies are on FB and still have support there. It is good to hear from some of you though....I still like to keep track and know what's going on with everyone.
AFM: I am 36 weeks! I can't believe it! I can't believe that it was 9 months ago when we found out we were expecting...feels like yesterday. 4 more weeks left! Baby's room is all ready and we are pretty much set with everything. Just a few last minute things to do but bags are packed and we are ready for baby! Don't lose hope ladies...it will happen! Just have faith! Praying for all you ladies daily...

Hello to the all new ladies!
I joined this forum about 3 months ago after months of reading the posts and when my doctor said it was ok to finally try clomid even after 19 months of trying, and of course getting other health issues in check. I have not logged onto this site for a while since the FB (secret forum just for us ladies) page but I still get all the emails with all the updates on this page and read every single one of them because I am always after good news! :0)
Dazzle's comment made me log on today... I too have a thyroid issue as well as PCOS so you are not alone! My thyroid issue at first was called Hypothyrodism and now because they saw 2 months in a row Thyroids antibodies they became fancier and got the fabulous name of Hashimoto's which is a way of telling you where did I get this from... yes autoimmune my own body attacks my Thyroid and it is the most common cause of Hypothyrodism.
Dazzle my Thyroid is in check or so I thought until last month after my first IUI I got the news that my TSH was 4.94 which as you may know is not a good thing, 2 months prior it was 2.9 and I told the doctor to up synthoroid to .112 as I have read that the best TSH to conceive ranges from 1.0 to 2.5. So now I am up to .15 of synthoroid and changing to a Fertility clinic and advising them to please check my thyroid every month.
I look often for pages that have success stories for people who have both and I have found some, so I know in my heart that a BFP can also happen for us and It will just keep the faith going and always trust your instinct more than your doctor! Good Luck!!!
I am also on Metformin 1500 a day for PCOS...

hey girlfriend.... I am so sorry about your miscarriage, its very painful to be preggo and loose it. I pray God will console you and give you another one that will come to stay. I have never had one so i dont know how soon you can start trying again, i think your doctor will be in the best position to tell you when to start ttc and there are other ladies who went through what are going through now. They will answer your question as soon as they see your message. Sending some sticky baby dust your way when you start ttc again. XX
Argomez....... I am so glad you are not giving up, good to hear from you. You are one of the ladies that motivated lots of people on this site with your encouraging words and faith in God. You are always in my prayers, dont relax on trying to loose more weight. Am sure its going to be of benefits to you and the baby when you get preggo. sending you sticky baby dust
Miraclebebes....... I am so happy you and the baby are doing great, sorry about the loss of the other twin but i believe God will not give us what we cant handle. Wishing you a healthy pregnancy all the way.
Welcome to all the newbies
AFM.....I am 29weeks 4days, juat taking it one day at a time. I can start the countdown from 30 weeks, lol.

Argomez- hi lady! Still thinking and praying for you! Been waiting to see when you resurfaced. I'm so sorry that you've been having such a hard time. Can we believe that we've "known" eachother for over a year now? I know that God will bless you! I just have the strongest of hope & somehow your story will be a witness to others about your stronghold of faith! You are such an inspiration to me and how I need to keep my faith in my daily struggles. Stay strong :)
Girlfriend - I am so sorry to hear of your loss! Dh and I conceived naturally and when I was 13wks I miscarried, tho the baby was only 9wks. The miscarriage was physically & emotionally difficult and has changed my life. The doc advised us thhat we wait until we have at least one normal cycle. So we had to wait 3 months, then it took us 3 months of clomid to conceive. Talk to ur doctor about taking progesterone to help sustain a pregnancy. Also, start takking vitaminB12, it helps with healing & conceiving. We will pray for your baby.when My niec heard we lost our baby she said "you mean God loved the baby so much, He took it right to heaven". So sweete

InHisHands - I am so excited for you, I am praying for an easy labor and beautiful end result. :)
Ang - Thanks so much for your kind words of encouragement. You are absolutely right, I will be one step closer and that excites me. It always helps so much when you surround yourself with encouragement. What did you have a sonogram for?
Miraclebebes - You are too sweet!!! Thank you so much for your prayers and please tell your family the same. I am so grateful to have a friend like you, I tell you sometimes the things all you ladies say is what keeps this journey from not getting to hard to give up. Most of all thank you for reminding me of God's word and promises for me. Please continue to pray for me as I believe you are a prayer warrior and I will do the same for you and your little one. When do you go in to find out what God has blessed you with? :)
Girlfriend - I am so sorry you are going through this. I know words right not cannot or will not console what you are going through. I am praying for you though and know you will get through this.
merciano - Thank you for your encouragement. This weight battle is intense and sometimes gets a little overwhelming but one step at a time. I need to loose about 50lbs to get to a very healthy BMI but you are right, it will only benefit. Wow, I cannot believe you are already 29 weeks, where in the world does time go?
mrs.daisy - I was so glad to hear from you! I still can't believe it's been a whole year. How is your little sweet pea doing? How many months is she now? Thank you for your encouragement, I really look forward to the day I can come on here and type the most exciting news of my life. :) Thank you again for sticking by me.
AFM - Went to get blood work done yesterday afternoon so hopefully the Dr. will call me today and figure out what where to go from here. I have absolutely no signs of starting anytime soon though. lol, argh sometimes it feels like if it's not one thing it's another. Oh Jesus, help me. :)

Regina i have heard a lot of good news on the clomid. If it is already working for you that is good news. When do you start your next cycle.? Good luck
So ladies I had my appt today. DH sperm count is good. Tje plan is to start me on Femera and Dexamethasone will start femera on 6-30 unless my progesterone is elevated. But since my Dhea hormone is elevated I have to take a steroid. Then do OPK day 12-16 of my cycle. If i get a positive opk go get transv____al US the next morning and see where my follicles are. I hope this one works since clomid did not

Hello ladies, its nice to see this site coming back to life. Welcome to all the new ladies. I have been on here for quite a while, and after 5 rounds of clomid and 2 iui's, still no luck. I can't give you a success story, but I can give you my support and advice.
DesertFlower, they told me not to worry about the bleeding and that it happens sometimes, especially with women who have pcos.
Sussanna, thank you for the encouragement and for your story. I'm sorry for your loss, but I also want to sa congradulations on your baby boy!
Dazzle, good luck, hope this surge leads to a bfp in 2 weeks. I also have hypothyroidism and am currently taking synthroid. I'm also on metformin 500mg twice a day for pcos. I did 5 cycles of clomid and am now being moved to injections, hopefully, depending on my insurance company. I have found this site to be very helpful throughout this journey, I hope it helps you as well.
PricelessGrl and InHisHands, I wish and pray for your easy, safe and quick deliveres. I can't believe how time has pa__sed. I remember how both of you announced your pregnancies.wish you al the best.
Ang, I'm so glad they finally figured a game plan for you. I've heard that femara is great for those who had no luck on clomid. I am hopefully moving onto injections, depending on my insrance. Will keep you updated. Wish you all the luck in the world, can't wait to hear a bfp from you.
Argomez, so glad you are back to trying. Its very nice to hear from you. You are always in my prayers. I can't wait to finally hear great news from you. Its been so long and heartbreaking, I'm keeping you in my prayers.
Girlfriend, I'm so sorr for your loss. I pray for your recovery. There's nothing anyone can say or do to make you feel better, but we can be here to listen.
Regina, welcome and feel free to ask all the questions you need. Were all here to help and support eachother.

Girlfriend - I completely understand your pain. DH and I accidentally conceived in Jan 11' and I miscarried at 8 weeks. After almost a year of trying, dr put my on clomid and on my third round, 1st on 100 mg, I became pregnant again January 12'. I miscarried at 10 weeks this time and had my dc in march. I was told to wait until after af arrived and then I could start trying again. Last month was my first month back really trying (but with no clomid). I was really upset when af arrived so I went ahead and started the clomid back this month. I am currently on cd 15, so we'll see what happens this time. Please know that you are not alone and that we are all here to help in any way we can :)
