Hi Emily, I just wanted to welcome you, and to say hang in there. I wish I had some advice to give you but I am still trying to figure out things about myself. If it gives you any comfort, and I hope it does; remember you are not alone! As for your questions, I am 32 and have never gotten pregnate (although I have not tried invitro or fertility pills yet) I am trying the lose weight angle because I have come to terms with the fact that I may never have children : ( I have never heard of ovaried being like rocks?? What's that about. I know mine are " Over Enlarged" Well Take care Alicia
