Just starting out

I gave up the BCP 2 weeks ago and we am just starting TTC.  I new to the site and have been reading posts and looking up information to get the hang of all of this.  I am worried because of my PCOS (diagnosed in 2003) so some of the posts about PCOS have been comforting (those who got pregnant quickly) and others terrifying (trying for more than a year, yikes!)  Does anyone have any tips? I am open for any suggestions at this point.

    Welcome and good luck - I'm pretty new around here myself!  One thing for sure, if you haven't already, make sure you lurk and read the newbie posts...someone has them bookmarked, I'm sure they will post it if you ask!

    Hi Welcome! If you aren't charting I suggest you start. Most of us use fertility friend (click on my siggy to sign up). You will learn a lot about your body, trust me! Also, I recommend reading the book Taking Charge of Your Fertility. It is a real eye opener, and I think it has information on PCOS too.  Good luck!

    Thanks! I am trying to get the hang of this whole charting thing.  I haven't gotten my first post-BCP period yet so maybe after that...
