Hello friends!!
I've been with Fertility Ties since July of this year. I have always had problems with my menstruation since I was a teenager. When I am stressed (it does not matter what's causing it, and sometimes I am not even aware of it), I will miss my periods a lot. The longest has been 6 months of not getting my period. I know it was not healthy, so I finally saw an OB/GYN and asked help if there is a way to make my periods go normal without being put on birth control pills. So, last year, I was given Provera for three intermittent rounds. But that still did not regulate my period. I would still miss my period a lot, and it was getting more and more frustrating. My hubby and I realized that I was just too stressed with my work. So, we decided that I will quit my job and concentrate on baby making. Around that time, my doc also prescribed me 50 mg Clomid to induce my ovulation. The first cycle (June) was not successful because we did not use any fertility monitor, OPKs nor BBTs. On the second cycle (July), I used OPK and BBT, but since it was my first time to use OPK, and I did have conceive last month, except that it was a chemical pregnancy. Then finally, on my third cycle (August), I used new stuff like the Pre-Seed. I even when to a "healing mass" with my mother-in-law...and for us at that time, it was just all about faith if God will make it happen for us. At 12 DPO, I got my first BFP, and by 14 DPO, my pregnancy was confirmed with a blood test.
We have tried on and off since last year, but to no success. When I first tested at 12 DPO, I honestly was not expecting to see a positive result. I was just so punched drunk with all the BIG FAT NEGATIVES I would get before. I thought it will never happen for us...but it did!!
So, to all of you who are still trying...don't ever, every lose hope. It's alright to cry and feel frustrated at times...we're just humans, we can't control our emotions, but we can keep on fighting. IT WILL HAPPEN, DON'T STOP BELIEVING...
BABY DUST to all and GOD BLESS YOU!!
