OB/GYN visit

I visited my OB/GYN on Friday. Based on my history and symptoms, she thinks I have PCOS and has ordered blood tests to rule out other conditions. I went in to have blood drawn today. I'll find out the results on 2/15.

She sent me to a great site by Northwestern University, which is a leading research institution studying PCOS.

Doc also told me to look into The PCOS Diet Book. I guess the diet hasn't actually been proven, but she says it can't hurt. Sigh. I hate diets.

Visit with doctor moved

The appointment with my OB has been moved to January 25.

I started my period yesterday. It's been a mere three months since the previous one.

First Post

I created this blog months ago in anticipation of my second baby. I enjoyed blogging for my first pregnancy, and as soon as I got pregnant again, I wanted to start a chronicle for this baby.

Isn't life funny? Because it doesn't appear that I'm ovulating at all anymore. It was sporadic before, and so I was lucky to get pregnant with Seth, but now... well, I have an appointment with my OB in January to talk it over. We've talked about PCOS before, and I'm sure we'll talk about it some more.

If I never have another baby, that will be okay, because I do have Seth. Some people can't even have one, so I'm ever mindful of my fortune in having a baby before it was too late. But I will admit that I'd like another, someone for Seth to play with and fight with, someone to always be on his side at school, someone to help him take care of us when we get old.

So that's the story of how my second baby blog became a TTC blog.
