This is not a fairytale. I learned that quite a few months ago. Naively, we went into this thinking "Oh! We want to have a baby now" and expected that it would happen because we wanted it to. And, for some that does work. Not for me - or many others like me. It's hard. It's emotional. It sometimes gets the best of you. So, after over a year of trying to conceive and a PCOS diagnosis, I find myself here - trying to believe.

It's been crazy here

I guess I have a lot to update on. My doc appointment yesterday went good. I took a printout of this cycle and last cycle's chart and all she could say was "Wow". I told her about my sore and swollen nipples and she said "We need to have you pee in a cup!" LOL I had to remind her I was only 9dpo. She said I was right it was probably too early, and to test after Thanksgiving.

My father-in-law had a light stroke last night. He's terminally ill, and has been in bad shape for awhile now. He's in the hospital and will undergo rehab.

Thanksgiving was so yummy. I'm so so so stuffed right now. We had a freaking tornado warning today! The day started off at like 70* and dropped into the 40's. Then the warning happened and about 10pm it was sleeting. WTH

How bout a list of symptoms?
  • wicked bad constipation and very un-fun BMs when they do happen
  • swollen, sensitive, sore nipples and overall sore boobs
  • a few cramps here and there
Tomorrow is 11dpo. We are nearing the finish line for this cycle.

OOOOOOOH Ang! It sounds like this may be it!! I hope it's not just your body reacting to more progesterone than its used to. I guess either way, its a celebration. You ovulated! Yay!

When are you going to POAS?!
