    Happy Sunday to all the TTC ladies!
    I'm anxious to hear an update from Victoria and Jana.... how did your cycles end?

    I had an ultrasound last Thursday and got to see my sweet heart little baby again! I wrote a separate post that day with a picture if anyone is interested. I am transfering from my RE back to a regular OB. I picked one in his medical group because I had such a bad experience with my previous OB. I meet with my new OB on 2/6/11! I will be 12 weeks along by then and we should be able to hear baby's heartbeat on a doppler! 

    How is everyone doing?

    As always, let me know if you would like to be added/edited/deleted!
    ~Nikki

    HI Nikki~

    I was doing ok...I posted the other day about my PCOS trouble, pain and such.
    I loath soulcysters...I have been a member for years. However, there is a lot of attitude very similar to the RNY thread there.

    Yesterday I started spotting dark brown clots. I am terified!
    I already have an appointment to see my ob/gyn Wednesday!
    My period was Januray 7-12...so this is odd

    I still feel like I failed myself and my RNY...so why try for another~
    depression is at an all time high too; I do see someone for that too.
    I will be calling my RNY doc this week too.

    Thanks for listening~
    Cheri

    Cheri,
    I'm sorry you're having such a rough time :( You DID NOT FAIL! You have a very challening hormonal medical condition. I am glad you are following up with your surgeon, and I am glad you are seeing someone about your depression.
    So you have access to a Reproductive Specialist? I would have never gotten pregnant without my amazing doctor! He is an expert at PCOS and got me pregnant on my very first cycle with him. My hormones are shockingly out of wack... it even surprised my doctor, but its amazing what things like injectable medication can do to "fix things."
    I'm sorry you don't like Soulcysters... the TTC board has been pretty supportive so much as I can tell at least since I've been active on there the past year. How long has it been since you checked it out? I've heard that the pregnant momma's boards are the snarky ones now. haha
    Keep us updated Cheri! I hope things start to get better for you fast!

    Hey there!

    My period came a few days early :-(  But that is okay. I have another block for TTC. It seems that I have started developing gall bladder issues. I have gall stones. I don't know when surgery is scheduled yet but that of course is going to be something else to push back the trying. It's okay. It needs taken care of.

    Just give us a couple months :-)

    Jana
    Starting weight was 305 ... It's history! 
    Love my Band!

    I'm sorry to hear about your gallbladder Jana :( Boo!
    I'm glad you are going to have it taken care of before TTC again because having to have emergency gallbladder removal during pregnancy is no good. I had to have my gallbladder removed during last summer, right after my ectopic pregnancy. You will feel so much better after its gone!

    I'm TTC effective ASAP, I just got my IUD taken out 2 weeks ago and I'm going full speed ahead with this. What else do you need to know about me? LOL

    I did my first clomid/hcg cycle and made 3 folicles. I had an IUI on Tuesday and now is the 2ww. They said to think that i'm pregnant until I know i'm not. It is hard to be positive because I don't want to be dissapointed but I'm trying.
    With faith all things are possible

     Hello my name is Elaine I am 4 years post op and ttc. I got my iud out a few months ago and so far had 44 day cycle, 40 days then over Christmas a whopping 50 days. Currently I'm on CD 27 and I think I ovulated over the past couple of days. So we will wait and see. I think my hormones are out of whack, my 50 day cycle when I got AF I had 1 day spotting, I day normal flow then back to spotting for 3 days. I'll see how it goes this time and make an appointment with the doc.

    Baby dust to everyone!

    Hi everyone!

    My name is Jennifer and this is our first month of trying.  I just got my IUD out two weeks ago, and then got AF the very next day.  My cycles appear to be 30 days, so all the ovulation calculators I've tried online shows that next weekend is the best time for us to try.  I can't wait!

    Good luck to all the other couples out there!  Any/all tips any successful couples have to share would be greatly appreciated!

    Under the list for TTC is a list of what the abreviations are for. AF = aunt flo, AKA menstruation. Creative eh? :)
