Hi - well I hate to start off by sounding pathetic but after weeks of reading some great messages - some of which made me laugh and cry (not at the same time!) and some that made me literally say out loud "this is me!!! I have decided to say hello. I hope you all know how truly important you all are - this site has kept me sane on some truly dark days. Never backward in coming forward - LOVE YOUSE ALL!!!
OK so a quick bio - I am 32 have been off the pill since Dec 04 - no af for the whole of 2005 - saved a fortune on girly products, and have had 2 cycles this year. Diagnosed with PCOS - have seen naturopath, Sharkeys and have been prescribed Provera and Clomid from gyno. And y'day I filled that script - part of me feels like I have the "golden ticket" and am scared as hell but I feel this is what I have to do - I feel like if one more person tells me they are pregnant I will literally lose it - and of course my day job involves working in a particular govt dept processing baby claims and dealing with women in all stages of pregnancy.
And yes I buy pregnancy mags and have read so many books on fertility I am probably as qualified as some experts but still clueless about so much - like now I have my fertility drugs don't quite know exactly what to do and more importantly when to BD. And of course I realise the drugs may not necessarily work for me but have fingers crossed.
My DP has been as understanding as he can but the occasional comment on not wanting to be an old dad is just pressure I don't need.
I would love to hear from anyone with success stories about clomid and more importantly the combo of Provera & Clomid..
Thankyou for allowing me to talk - since moving from brisbane to North Coast NSW end of Dec 04 I have been a tad lonely and I feel like all my girlfriends (some of whom have just had their first bub or who are pregnant) are tired/unsure of how to be as they try to understand how I am feeling.
Look forward to hearing from anyone....(sorry would put a smile hear but haven't worked out how to use smilies - sorry very clueless about this stuff
