I got my results and sorry to say no baby yet..... so that means more fun for me and DH to have.. not that we dont' have fun or wouldnt' have fun with a baby.. ( oh never mind LOL) thank you for all the kind words of encorgagement and prayers!!!

[Tara1021]

Oh Leah, I'm sorry. There will be a time....

Did your blood tests reveal the cause for your sickness etc.?

[mommyhugz1978]

Nope they didn't reveal any of that.... so I dont' know... other than my cycle started two days ago and I am missrable ......

[pixel-_]

I'm SO SORRY!!! You always have the next month though! Remember it is all in God's time not ours! I will keep you and your family in my prayers and hope that yours are answered!

[mommyhugz1978]

At least someone out their is supporting me. and Dh.. I got a 10 men lecture from my mother that I need to finish school.. and it might be too dangerous to have more children, becasue of my polycystic ovaries, that I cant' handle one child why would I want to have another.. etc etc.... lets jsut say I am not too happy right now.. and my Dh has no idea this conversation has taken place!!

[Jennie4PC]

Leah I am so sorry to hear all that is happening IMHO I hate it when parents try to say thier kids shouldnt have more it should definitly be up to husband and wife. If my mom told me to stop having kids cause of my heart problems I would be so mad at her.

[mommyhugz1978]

My dad said well that is good now would you stop being so emotional I told him probley not..when i told him that it was between DH and I ... he said well take it or leave it!!

[Tara1021]

Talk to your doc about glucophage. I had issues with my cycle about 5 years ago, irregular etc. I was taking preg tests like crazy b/c it was so unreliable. I dropped some weight and it normalized. Now I'm trying this to get everything else normalized. I don't have polycystic ovaries though. Dr. said that was very common not to have the cysts, but to have everything else. :confused:

[mommyhugz1978]

I jsut went off the pill in Jan of this year...... I started my cycle on Sunday.... so if it isnt' normal next month then I will talk to her about it.

[pamperedgirl3]

Leah, I'm sorry to hear the news wasn't what you were hoping. Good luck!

[janetupnorth]

Leah - I know you parents probably want the best for you (of course what they think is best). At least appreciate their desire for your welfare (right or wrong on the advice) and love them for that.

Our Bible does say in Genesis: "For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and they will become one flesh."

My MIL and FIL were AWESOME on this topic...once engaged, they gave their son the lecture that he was never allowed home without his wife. (Meaning don't come running to us if you have any issues). Of course, if he is in the area without me he can stop in - LOL! They really take the scripture to heart though...they will never comment on how we raise our kids (unless it is positive) or on the decisions we make, etc., etc. I really love and respect them for that! It is awesome!

Leah, I don't know your history or why your parents want to interject their opinions (my mom still does somedays!), but I pray that your parents will come to understand that scripture and your need to make your decisions with your husband for what is best for your family. ...and that when the time is right in God's plan, He will bless you with another...He has the perfect timing.

[KellyTheChef]

Leah~

I feel for you! Even though I know you understand everything is in God's hands, it still hurts our hearts when we really want something and it doesn't come through in "our" timing! But, yes, you will look back on this and see God's hand on you, your hubby, and your family!

Praying for you....take care.

Leah, check out www.pcos-info.com. it has some very helpful info. I too suffer from pcos as well as endometriosis. I definitely pray for future success for you. I have truly learned that only God gets to decide when and if for us.
just keep your faith and all will be well.

[tlennhoff]

Leah, I'm so sorry to hear the results were negative. The ups and downs when trying to be pregnant can be quite stressful. I will continue to keep you in my prayers. Our faith can help us so much through disappointments. Something that helps me is to read psalms which can have a very comforting affect.

Know that we are all here for you.

[mommyhugz1978]

Thank you so much for all of your support and prayers... my husband and I are so overwhelmed with support... I am finding that if I staying close to scriputres the lord will bless me and right now I truly need that!!

[Miss Cori]

It could be because you just went off your pills in january, and your body needs to just get back in the rythm it needs to make a baby. I will pray for you though. I only wish you all the best. I know it must be so hard wanting something so bad. Good Luck.

[pamperedpals]

I completely understand what you are going through Leah. I also have pcos. I went to a fertility specialist and that is how I found out. He had me start taking glucophase, as someone mentioned earlier. It is mostly for people with diabetes, but one of the side affects, is that is make women ovulate. The other thing, my DH and I found out, was once we stopped trying, it happened. We tried for a year and then just stopped. The next thing we knew I was pregnant.

You also need to give your body time to adjust being off the pill. Hang in there and remember everything does happen for a reason and GOD only gives what we can handle.

I felt drawn to read through this entire thread, and I am struck by the outpouring of concern and wise counsel sent your way! As others have said, keep faith!!!! God sometimes puts us in the refiners' fire to skim off our impurities. As impossible as it always is to see at the time, He is always "right" in the end, and in your 20/20 hindsight, you can see how things did work out in your best interest.

I have PCOS and I was 200 pounds overweight eleven years ago when I got married. It was a long road built over a river of tears, but I thank God and praise Him for every one of those tears!!

I had gastric bypass surgery 6.5 years ago... Matthew is five... Kaylee is four... and (God is REALLY funny!) I just found out last Friday that Baby #3 will arrive on or about November 30!! I am 37 (ancient, if you ask me) and really went through the proverbial ringer medically, but here we are - soon to be a family of five!!!

Pray and let go. Just enjoy your marriage (especially because it sounds like a really fun one!!) and live your life to the fullest!! Take care of your health and let God take care of your family. He knows your heart's desire, and He ALWAYS - WITHOUT EXCEPTION - wants the best for His children. If it is a good thing for you and your husband to be blessed with a child, it WILL happen!!!

Cling to His promises - He has kept them for thousands of years!!!!!!

God Bless You!!!

[mommyhugz1978]

My husband and I have been richly bless by the pressence of the Lord in our lives, I sit and think about all the thing that the lord has blessed us with, and you know what truly amazes me is that his children our his most prised possession of them all, My Dh and I have my daughter (she is from my 1st marriage) she will be six in June, She is one of the greatest joys in my life. I know that the Lord will bless us with another child when HE thinks it is the right time, I think sometimes I get alittle impacient with things that I forget that it isn't in my time it is in his time. My DH and I have only been married four months, and let me tell you their four months that I will tressure forever. I found out five years ago that I have PCOS , which would explain my weight gain and loss over the past few years. I have 15 more pounds to go and I will be under two hundred pounds. Which the I think the Lord is telling me that I really need to get that extra weight off, My Dh and I had a long conversation the other night about the "baby" and we decided that Iwould stay off the pill and have fun, but in the mean time we would start walking nightly and getting some excerise so we were healthy when the Lord blesses us with another beauiful heavnly spirit. I truly blieve that everything happens for a reason and the only person's who know what those reasons are our God and Jesus Christ and I feel that both of them at my side at all times, even through the past week of feeling up's and downs wheather I am with child or not.


Warmly,

~ Leah~

[Bexamo]

Leah - that is the attitude to pray for!!!

Revel in the Blessings you already enjoy...
Be a good steward of the life you have been given... (take care of your physical, emotional and spiritual well-being)
Have fun every day!!!
Remember God's promises!!

As much as you delight in your daughter's face when you surprise her with something (big or small) that fills her heart's desire, so much more your Father in Heaven delights in your joy when you receive your heart's desire!! He loves to say "YES!" Like all good parents though, sometimes the answer must be "no" or "not now." (Like when your daughter really wants chocolate marshmallow ice cream 2 minutes before bed... The dentist and pediatric fitness counselors would love you for your business :D !)

Patience stinks... I know!!! HANG IN THERE!!!!!!!

Blessings!!
