Ok, so when I was put on metformin I was warned about having the poops. That didn't really happen. Grumble-y tummy a few times, yes. But no full out I need to sit on the potty forever. In fact, because I have dealt with the opposite in the past, I was kind of excited, thought it would make me more regular at least.
Wrong. False hope. I have been getting constipated. I usually go every day. Now it is like every 2-3 days. My tummy hurts, I feel nauseous, and I am kind of cranky. I sit on the potty forever...in hopes of my bowels deciding to finally make a move!
I feel like crap.
And to top it off I am all sorts of achy in my joints again. I think I might have to see about going off from this medicine, because I am not a fan at all. Doctors appointment next week, so we shall see what she has to say. Blah.
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.
Oh my gosh, I was on the toilet all the time b/c of the metformin. Do you eat a lot of carbs, it seems like that is when it really hit.
ReplyDeleteI don't eat that many carbs, but being on this new diet I am hoping that the extra veggies and fruit will help move things along more regularly. *crosses fingers*
ReplyDeleteI was googling constipation and ovulation and got to thinking that maybe you are constipated cause of the nice size of your follicles. :) Maybe you;re brewing a nice big follicle thats just waiting to rupture and be fertilized! :) lol Hey, I'm just saaaaayyyyiinnnn!!! ;D BTW, these last two mo you have been two cycle days ahead of me. Too bad we aren't TTC. lol We could be cycle buddies!
