Updates

On the party...

It went fine. Thanks for the prayers and positive thoughts ladies!!! I didn't have to answer the dreaded "When are y'all gonna have kids?" question. THANK GOD!!! There was, of course, talk of pregnancies, but I left the room and found other people to talk to when it got to be too much. I did get annoyed once when one of the preggies talked about how she hated not being able to sleep at night. Now, she wasn't really complaining per se, but it really struck a nerve with me. I wanted to say, "Well this is your third child. It's not like you didn't know that sleeping would be difficult at times. If it bothered you so much then why get pregnant again?" But I didn't. I just smiled, but inside I was rolling my eyes. It just urks me when preggies gripe about their symptoms as if they're horrible burdens. Yes, I know they're annoying. Shoot, who wants to be constipated, nauseated, fatigued, etc... But it's TEMPORARY!!! I would give both my legs to know what that feels like!!!


On cycle stuff...

Not feeling pregnant, just miserable from the Met. As much as I'd like for this nausea, heartburn and fatigue to be pregnancy related I know it's not. My temps tanked this morning so I know AF is on her way. Which in all honesty, I'm okay with. I didn't have a good feeling about this cycle anyway. But, here's my dilema...(there always is one with me, huh?)...I don't know whether to go in for my monthly "I'm not pregnant" appt (just not for the clomid) and talk to Dr. K about what to do next. I can't stress enough how much I REALLY don't want to go back on BCP. I want to give the Met a little more time to normalize my cycle. Or should I just do things on my own, not call to let Dr. K know I'm CD1 (whenever that occurs), not go on BCP, let the Met do it's thing (if it's going to) and then see what happens? I'm more than likely going to have to go back on anti-inflammatories, but I'd like to not prevent, but not whole heartedly try. KWIM?

I am glad no one asked those dreaded words at the party.

Are you on Met Extended Release? I have heard great things about that one if the regular Met causes you problems.

Glad the party was tolerable. Perhaps I can aid you with your met problems. Which are you on? ER or the regular? how many mg? Are you drink enough fluid? Lactic acid can and will build up without enough water. You should also avoid anything that has high fructose corn syrup on the label (just about everything). You should also avoid white bread, sour dough, potato etc. Basically with PCOS your body can't break down complex saccharides and starches etc. I swear i feel like my diet currently consist of refined yet expensive dirt! Any questions are recipes you may be interested in email me. Much Love, Hang in there.

I'm glad the party went okay. I hear ya on the complaining. Number one question people ask me is how I am feeling and I'm blown away because no matter how my physical body is reacting to pregnancy the answer will be "great, thanks."

Hope things normalize with the Met for you, soon.

Hi, new to reading your blog.... I would recommend followup. They need to sign-off on the cycle, to make sure nothing is up -- when I got my period after a "failed" cycle, thought I would skip the appt. Ended up as an ectopic -- so please, even though you are sure in your own mind that a cycle was not successful, always go to the followup with the docs.
