Getting on bcp

in Secondary IF
It was a painful decision but I decided to start back on BCP for a while.  I would like to try ivf this summer but for now, I am going to try bcps out to see if 1. they help me lose weight (thanks PCOS) and 2. give me the mental TTC break I need because I have been trying unsuccessfully to take a break but I know when I O so its hard not to want to try each month.

Dh has been wavering about doing IVF so I feel like if we take TTC off the table for a few months that will either renew the desire to try ivf or help us decide to end the journey here.

    Sorry that this is where you are, enjoy the break and I hope you get some good time to relax and make your decisions. ((bigs hugs))

    TTC#1 May 2009- July 2010 on our own with no luck

    Started with RE in August 2010, dx with unexplained IF and then finally our 3rd IUI cycle using Follistim and Trigger resulted in our wonderful little man.  Born 12/2/11

    TTC#2 Never really prevented, but were careful early on as Dr. reccomended

    Surprise BFP 12/16/13, started progesterone immediately as first numbers came back low, but betas were good.  Progesterone wasnt enough. Natural MC 12/24/13.

    Back with RE as of January 2014...

    5/27/14- Chemical Pregnancy :(

    April 2015 IVF#1

    5/13/15- BFP, please stick LO!

    Oh and I'm a major Harry Potter Nerd :)
