Infertility

1st 2ww

I was diagnosed with PCOS last month and am on my first medicated cycle. Currently I'm 3dpo and just wondering if anyone has any tips or suggestions to get through the 2ww.

Re: 1st 2ww

  • Hi there. Sorry about the diagnosis. Some good tips I've seen on here are: 

    -Funny Movies

    -Good books

    -Music and taking a walk

    -Talk to someone you trust.

  • Breathe. Try to relax and not over stress yourself. One of two things is going to happen and stressing yourself out isnt going to change the outcome. Good luck. On a side note you should put your history in your siggy and make a introduction. This might
