Baby, Baby, Baby!

As I said before, I knew right away I wanted a baby and I had finally gotten the husband who wanted it just as I did! So this is the easy part, right? You go off the pill, have sex and get pregnant. Just like that, right? Not in my case. First you have to ovulate and I soon discovered that was exactly what I was *not* doing.

After a few months of long cycles that seemed like they would never end in March, 2010 I decided to finally see my OBGYN. She ran some blood tests and easily confirmed it was Polycystic Ovary Syndrome(PCOS). I had already been on the internet site justmommies.com enough to have figured out what that meant and I felt kinda shattered at first. We decided that I would take Provera to end my cycle and induce my period and then we would start Clomid. A plan! I can handle that!

My cycle ends and I go in for my CD(cycle day)3 ultrasound to find that I have a cyst that I did not manage to get rid of with my last period. Great. I can't take the Clomid because it might overstimulate the cyst and cause an ovary to rupture so I am told to wait and see if my period will come on its own.

As I am stuck in the waiting game my husband and I decide that we feel stuck with where he's at in his company at the time. His manager wasn't doing what he should and when the position above my husband was opened up he just left it open and kept giving excuses to why he wasn't promoting him. We decided it was time to make a game changing move. We found an open position for a lab management position in a store in Louisville. We thought if nothing else we wouldn't mind moving there as I have lots of family there and hopefully that would inspire his manager to give him the new position. It did not cure the GM's laziness and off to Louisville we went, which also meant goodbye to my current OBGYN and stuck once again in the waiting game...
