Just diagnosed and need to vent and could use some advice
posted 10th Dec
My name is Manda. I'm 24 married and I now have five angel babies. You would think after two m/c s they would try to figure something out but no. I have finally been diagnosed with PCOS. I thought I would be happy to finally know why this has been happening but honestly I don't know what to do. My husband wants us to try again and I do too but... I don't know if I have the strength. I'm still burdened with the death of my children. I love my husband he's a hard working man and because of his work he was never there for any of the misscarriages. So a lot of times I feel alone. I don't think he feels the same pain I do. I do know he loves me because don't get me wrong he's very supportive!!! Any other man would of left by now. But this journey has been extremely painful and I don't know how much more I can take. I long to be able to carry and deliver my own child but sometimes I wish my husband would just let us adopt cuz I know how big of an emotional wreck I'll be throughout the pregnancy I'll be. I've been trying to watch what I eat to lose some weight. Another battle I've been dealing with. Please tell me I'm not alone

I have PCOS and Endometriosis. I have 8 angel babies and a precious little one that will be three on the 19th. It's hard. I actually woke up the day I found out I was pregnant and told my husband I just wanted to go ahead with the hysto. He said that was fine if it's what I wanted and later that afternoon my best friend got me to take a pregnancy test. I only took it to prove to her I was not pregnant. I was done with ttc and miscarriages and just wanted it all over with. We have no intention on ever trying again. Instead we are going to adopt. We always wanted one bio child and the rest adopted.
So sorry for your losses and good luck. You are not alone. There are LOTS of women on this site in the same boat. Hang in there.

I have PCOS. I had a miscarriage when I was young. I delivered my son on March 9 2012. I have had three miscarriages since delivering him in March. It is very hard.

I have PCOS and got preg 3 years after being diagnosed...thank god i have never gone through a miscarriage from having it. I would suggest if your overweight to lose some before trying to get preg again. Also you may have had miscarriages due to chromosome issues in the baby. If your body recognizes that the baby wont develope right it will spontaneously abort the fetus usually by 8-12 weeks. Keep trying im sure it will happen. I know it can be rough and id never wanna go through what you went through but youll never know what could happen unless you try.

I'll share. While ttc 2.5 yrs ended up pregnant June 09 & lost it,.pregnant couple months later Dec 08 carried to term, sept 10 ttc for 1 yr ended in loss I just found out in Oct12 I have endometriosis. Some days I dream if that baby & other days I don't want to try any more.
Its hard. I don't know how many more losses I can take but my aunt told me that for all those losses & to finally get that baby to hold is worth it.
She also has endo & 3 children & 5 losses.
I know I have one child that for i'm grateful but would like to expand my family just like a "normal" woman should choose.
Bless your heart & your journey! You're def not alone!
