For those of you who dont know me... I am 32... had my baby girl Kaitlyn in January of 2002 - conceived successfully after loosing 45lbs and having 3 cycles of Clomid induced ovulations.
Since Kaitlyn was born, I gained 70ish lbs... had AF for 10 months straight, after stopping breastfeeding when she was 7 months old... and finally stopped bleeding 10 months later thanks to BCP's. Stayed on them for 5 months, then quit - and AF has been absent since this past February.
I was diagnosed with PCOS in 1999. I have never ever ever had a *normal* cycle - without the use of synthetic hormones :rolleyes:
Currently I am back on Weight Watchers - have lost 20lbs since May 1st so far... and I FINALLY got my call to see my fertility doctor (Dr Reid) after my family Dr sent in my referral in March :yippee:
Since I ovulated at 100mg of Clomid last time... I hope that we are successful in conceiving after our 1st month ;) I will be taking my daily temperature and plan on re-subbing to Fertility Friend too (last time I used LifeCycle and it helped me alot to know when my O date was... I ovulate late, around day 19-20).
Look forward to getting to know you ladies in this leg of my *Getting Preg Journey*.
