QOTD: What is the greatest lesson Infertility (especially with PCOS) has taught you?

 

Re: ~*~*~ PCOS Check-In ~*~*~ SAIFW

  • Update: CD3 for me. Cramping like a mo fo and trying to decide if I need to call the doctor. It's not getting better and tylenol isn't working. Other than that, it's the waiting game. Still haven't heard back from my repeat draw for my high androgens, but I'm sure it will be the same and I'm hoping she'll go ahead and put me on Met. 

    QOTD: I think the greatest lesson is patience. There's a lot of waiting that goes on. Another thing is to take care of myself, which (according to research) I wouldn't be here if I had been eating right and exercising in the first place.

  • I am still waiting to O this cycle. I don't think that it's going to happen.

     QOTD: IF has taught me patience, I suppose.

  • This is cd3 for me also.  I just came back from my baseline ultrasound and everything looks good.  I'll be starting on Clomid tonight and injections begin again on Monday night.  We'll be doing IUI # 3 this cycle.

    QOTD:  I have learned that life is not about my timing, but God's timing.  This actually gives me hope that one day it will be my time!

  • Update: Still on BCP...one week down, two to go.

    QOTD: That I really don't have control over very much in this world. And I hate that but I'm learning to deal..

    TTC #1 since June 2008 *SAIFW*

    TI, IUIs, IVF = c/ps and BFNs

  • Update: We have our education and some testing on Tuesday.

     

    QOTD: Well it's definitely taught be patience above everything else.  Although we have been through a lot , I feel we have been very fortunate so far with some of the blessing we have received such as donated medications.

  • Provera day 4 today. In about a week AF should be here. I'm already crampy so I'll probably start spotting soon :/

    QOTD: Patience. And trying to stay positive as much as possible.

    What is the greatest lesson Infertility (especially with PCOS) has taught you? Hmm.  That I have an amazing husband and family.  They have been so supportive, more than I ever thought possible!

  • I had my first appointment with a new RE office on Tuesday. I liked them a lot. They are a little pricier, but all that matters is that we get results. I have another appointment on dec 1st. Tonight is my first acu appointment. I am really (!!) excited about it. I've been wanting to do this for about a year now but due to cost and being unemployed for an extended period, it wasn't feasible.

    QOTD: I guess it has forced me to try to come to grips with the fact that I can't control everything. I'm working on it, but some days, I just can't take it. Patience is something else that goes along with it. I think the best part about IF is that I have learned about a whole other "world" and issues that people face trying to have a family. It really wasn't on my radar before. I thought it would be easy to have a baby, so I suppose an even great amount of compassion that before, has been the best lesson.

  • Update:  I'm testing tomorrow but I don't think I'll get a bfp - I have zero symptoms other than sore bb's but I always get that before af.  Since this was our last try with just using clomid we will be making an appt. with our FS and going over what our next steps are. 

    QOTD: My greatest lesson learned is how much love and support I have needed to accept through my whole IF process.  I tend to just want to deal with things on my own and 'get through' issues.  However IF is so out of my control and the anger I have felt over lossing control in this area of my life has been great.  My husband has given me extra support and love days when I didn't even know how badly I needed it.  I have learned that it's OK to be the person to lean on someone rather than to be the person who is leaned on.  My greatest blessing in my life has been my husband and I'm truely greatful for him.

  • Patience, and the fact that I have married the best man on Earth.

  • Well, I am 3dpo, so I get to start my HCG shots tonight.

    qotd: I have learned that I don't have any control over what is going on and learn to accept that. I don't have the patience that I thought I have.

  • Hello everyone!  I would like to join in with the PCOS checkin.  My name is Ashley.

  • - I'm on my 2nd round of chlomid. I'm up to 100 mg. Hoping for a BFP this month Smile

    -The greatest thing I've learned from Infertility is that not everyone is the same. The way they get pg isn't the same, when they are pg it's not the same, and every baby/child is not the same.  Life isn't black and white. This has been the biggest hurdle in my life and I hope over come it, very soon.

  • Filled my script for Metformin 500mg, and having problems with my BP being high this week. QOTD: Every Journey Has To Start Somewhere!
