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!

Thanks! I hope so too!!

No period yet! I think I may actually wait until the 10th to declare myself late. Part of me is wondering if maybe the doctor misread the blood test and I didn't actually ovulate. I've been getting a cramp here and there, but thankfully they aren't constant. They get worse when I lay down.

No that is a great sign. I got crampy the first few weeks of pregnancy. Let's keep positive.

I will do my best!

Positive thoughts sent your way!

How are you possibly resisting the urge to POAS?! You're got some serious willpower!

Best wishes and positive thoughts, I hope this is it for you,

Lol! I honestly haven't been thinking about it much. Every time I get a little cramp I tell myself that I am probably going to start tomorrow, so why waste a test? Helps me keep the crazies away and stay low-stress...

No way, with my first cycle (I did IVF w/ICSI so it's a little different) I had AF type cramps the entire time and was very scared it didn't work but it did - and I had twins! We can read so much into any little symptom, and so many of the symptoms are the same for AF and PG, so it's easy to drive yourself nuts. You probably have the right idea - just relaxing about it and hoping for a surprise.

This time I did a frozen embryo transfer and you better bet your butt I'm taking a home pregnancy test next Saturday! Everyone's different, I guess. I waited last time but just can't do it this time.

Still wishing you the best and sending positive thoughts!

Wow, I don't know if I could handle this for 8 more months!!! I'm not in a terrible amount of pain, but when I do get a cramp, it's so uncomfortable! I can pretty much depend on having some cramps as soon as I lay down. So annoying. At least I still haven't started, so maybe all of this will be worth it?

Oh yeah, I meant to also say- HOW EXCITING, Cheri! Praying for you, and I so hope you have another little one to love soon! Aren't children such a blessing? I always get so excited when I hear another baby is coming- let me know how it goes!

Broke down and took a test. It's POSITIVE. I'm taking another one in the morning just to be sure there's no false positive...
