Friday I had my last Dr.'s appointment, I brought my Cytotec and pain meds just in case. But so incredibly thankful that I didn't have to endure another dosage of that horrible medicine. She felt like it was fine to no do, because of the dramatic drop in my hormones. On a side note I've decided that is what is causing all of my headaches lately. I've had a migraine too, it was horrible, I never have them!
She looked at me and kind of chuckled with a sly smile and said, "Do you have your list of questions?" haha she already has me pegged. When replying, "I have a few." She responded with a, "I kind of figured you would, so go ahead!" We talked about PCOS and if I needed to followup with any testing. She feels like if I have some of the symptoms and with previous Dr thinking I have it that further testing isn't really necessary. From here we moved on to the subject of insulin and the possibility of having to do some glucose testing, much like the test for gestational diabetes because with PCOS you have a higher chance of getting Type 2 diabetes. I forgot to ask about getting testing to figure out my clotting disorder. But that has to wait until my blood work comes back as no longer pregnant.
After talk of blood work, I double checked the time line of when we can start trying again. She told me because of how level headed I seemed dealing with this one (meaning that she doesn't see any abnormal signs of depression lol) that after two cycles we could start trying again. Two because the first one is usually wacky. And the second one should be normal. Plus it will be nice to have a month off of not taking temps or dealing with OPKs. After that I have to start with baby aspirin a few days after ovulation so that if I do conceive baby will not get a clot in the developing placenta and such that stops the baby from growing.
Saturday was filled with activities that I wasn't looking much forward to because I just wanted a lazy day with my husband. Soon! Waiting on the house....*sigh* Saturday had it's good points and poor points. Laura was a beautiful bride, even if a little unorganized. Missy's birthday dinner was delicious, even if it was quite a bit later than expected.
As for now we are at church...and I need to get off this computer. More later.
Often things strike my heart and want to come bursting forth. They come spilling out onto the page, or computer screen. With ink filling pages or my fingers flying across the keyboard, my mind going a million miles a minute, and my heart crying out to be heard. Here is where you’ll find those things, my little notes on life.
Little Bit About Me
- Jess
- First and foremost, I am a Christian woman: I love Jesus! In this blog you will find stories of trying to conceive with PCOS, MTHFR, Poor egg quality, a unicornuate uteterus, and too many babies in heaven. It is a good thing God is the ultimate healer! Here you will find praise! and you may also find venting (I'm not perfect...) and you will find other stories of my crazy life. All the while through this journey I am holding on to scripture & hoping to one day be a mother here on Earth (waiting on God & His perfect timing...why am I so impatient?) But in the meantime, here you will find me: Jessica, loving wife, hopeful heart of a mother, and faithful friend.
