Default Need some input

I was diagnosed with possibly having pcos by my Gyno last year around september. After being told that my LH was higher than normal, then also my testosterone was borderline high and then they did a ultrasound on my ovaries and saw the immature follicles. I always have a regualr menstrual cycle though. I told them I had some pain when I was supposed to be midcycle like ovulation related. They told me that I was probably not ovulating and that it may just be a cyst. Well I went off the pill and had that pain and sure enough got pregnant the first month!! I now have a cute 6 month old baby girl!! Anyways the reason I am here is becuase I am trying to lose the last 15 pounds of baby weight. I was thin and in shape when I got pregnant and then got paranoid and ate too much and didnt exercise well and gained about 40 pounds. I now am about 15-20 away from my pre-weight. I havent tried to lose weight until now. I feel like lately I am a pig and crave everything especially sweets. I am worried that maybe the pcos is getting worse or I am becoming IR? I did not go back on the pill becuase I experience bad moods and fatigue when I am taking that. I am hoping that I can just get motivated and lose the weight. I can eat sooo much I dont get it. The only symptom of pcos that I can tell of is I do get chin hairs that I pluck. I am very regular in my cycles. I also get low blood sugar feelings when I dont eat every 3 hours or if I dont get enough protein. Does having a baby make things worse? Any info I would appreciate.

I think the first step is going to a doctor and getting a definite diagnosis so that you know what your treatment options are and if they are necessary.
