My Dream And it's not plural, since it's only one, from which all others are derived, is to be called "Mom". Doesn't sound all that much, or all that difficult, but when you turn 14, DX with PCOS meant, back then, a single line I got from my OB: "Forget TTC, you're infertile", and BANG! went my dream. There should have been a thunder outside, or some kind of power out, one of those movie - moments, when you think the Doc's kidding, and then you realise he isn't. This was in 1995, and since then I went through a lot of depressions, and even a suicide attempt, until I met my DH at 2000, I was sure I could never be loved, so hideous with the acne, hirsutism and overwieght I didnt think anyone could ever fall in love with me, and my love life said much of the same, I just couldn't keep a BF for over 3-6 months. Then I met DH, a miracle on his own, and started really researching PCOS online, and that's when I discovered this site. My life was changed! I told DH about it, and he was amazed. Together, we started realising having a baby might not be impossible, and started preparing ourselves for it. We weren't married yet at the time, we had a 4-year engagement program, as I now call it, since our parents thought we were too young. We finally got married last year, and right now I'm on a diet, and then TTC... 40 LBS TO GO! |
