Re: My heart is breaking for a child of my ownFrom: anon. (anonymous@obgyn.net)Fri, 30 Nov 2001 09:48:08 -0600 (CST)
Dear Tracey, I'm sorry of your two losses in life and i really do feel for you, your grief, the upset of TTC without success and your anger of having PCOS.I too went through similiar emotions. I was diagnosed with PCOS at the beginning of the year after we were ttc for 9-10 months. I never felt so much resentment about my body, I hated myself for having the syndrome and i felt worthless as a woman for failing to get pregnant. I too got pregnant when i was in my teens but had a termination at that time, then after months of ttc last year i got pregnant but had a miscarriage at 6 weeks! I have never felt so much guilt in all my life. I was believing i had done something wrong to deserve such a loss! Anyway after getting diagnosed, i found this forum a godsend. i also reserached into my syndrome to educate myself on how to treat/manage the PCOS.I reduced my Carb intake, not as severe as the Atkins diet as i didn't need to lose weight but certainly to allow effective metabolism of Carbs. I took mutlivitamins including Oil Evening primrose oil, i found complementary therapies aided relaxation, infact i swear by my relexology treatment helping to regulate my periods and kick starting my ovulation- from this my cycle got regular. It was ironic, but DH and myself decided to take some time off from the infertility tests and within a month of chilling out, i got pregnant without any medical assistnce! Please look into the possible treatment that can be provided to treat PCOS, educate yourself so that you can feel comfortable with sound knowledge of the syndrome to discuss this with your Doctor. (Unfortunately some Doc's don't know all the possibiities of treatment so educate them). Find ways to enhance your relaxation (i know thats easier said then done). review your diet. A positive approach with confidence in managing the symptoms with the appropriate methods may help assist with a positive outcome. This time last year, i never believed that i would have children but this time, this year i am now nearly 38 weeks pregnant! I wish you all the best and do write back if you need more words of faith and encouragement. LOL
