Hey everybody! It's been a long, long time since I have posted anything, but I wanted to just put an update out there. I was sleeved Dec. 20, 2011, and have lost 54 pounds so far. The doc gave me the green light for getting pregnant a couple weeks ago, and I am doing my first cycle of Clomid. I am so excited! We go to count eggs in 2 days! I have been wanting this for so long now, and I can't believe it's finally happening. DH and I have been wanting a child for over 4 years now. We didn't find out that I had an issue until 2 years ago, and I was diagnosed with PCOS. I am so thrilled to finally be at this point, and hope so much that we can get pregnant right away!

Congrats. I feel your pain, as I also have pcos. Best of luck to you.

Good luck! Saying a prayer for you.

Tomorrow I'm going in for a blood test "to see if the eggs were any good," in the words of my eloquent OB. In about three days I will be able to take an early pregnancy test and see if it worked! Fingers crossed! I don't really feel any different....

Good luck. Praying for you.

Thanks so much rodswife!

The blood test results came back- I ovulated! We just have to wait a couple more days to find out if I'm pregnant. At least if it didn't happen this time around, we know I responded to the treatments and we can try again. But hopefully there's a little baby in there somewhere....

Awww yea that is great news. I'm gonna think positively for you. I'm excited to find out.

Best of luck - be sure to update us here so we know how it went! I'm doing a FET (frozen embryo transfer) cycle right now. We did IVF w/ICSI in 2007 and these are the five embryos we had left. I take my first injection in a few days. Pretty exciting stuff, and much easier than the initial IVF!

Best to you - I'm sending positive thoughts your way.

Thank you Cheri! And rodswife! I took a test today. It was negative. It might still be a little early- it's been about 10-11 days since ovulation. If I am late for my period (if I haven't started by Tuesday), I will take another test.

Don't despair. All but one of my pee tests came up negative. I had to wait until I was actually late for the hormone to show up or have a blood test. 5 of the 6 required blood tests. Keep the faith.

Good luck to you.

Thanks, that helps me feel a lot better! I am really hoping it was a false negative. My boobs are really sore, but they usually are during the four days or so leading up to my period. I was reading some websites about all of this, and that also was helping me kind of understand what is happening.

Good luck! How exciting.....

Mine were real sore. Lol I had my nipples pierced with my 2 year old and had to take them out. That's how I knew I was pregnant even though the tests kept saying no. On the same day I had. Pee test that said no and a blood test that said yes. Baby dust coming your way.

woohoo! praying for you!
