Here is my story.


Mike and I were due to be married June 5, 2004 so in April I came off of the pill because we wanted to start trying right away. We got married and went on our Honeymoon, and by the end of June I still didn't have AF. I thought maybe we were one of the lucky ones that got pregnant on our honeymoon but I was wrong. Early July I called my doctor because when I started college in 1996 I went to the doctor because I still hadn't gotten my period. She said I was very leight for my age and very active and both would affect a females cycle. I was 87lbs and played several sports all of my life. So in July when I made the call she pulled my chart and decided to run the blood tests and it came back that I had very low if any female hormones and I was insulin resistant that other than the physical signs of PCOS I had all of the hormonal signs of it and thus I was diagnosed with PCOS. She did and internal sonogram and confirmed at that time I did not have any folicles. She wrote me a prescription for provera and for 1500mg a day of metformin. I started the provera and the metformin and got af on the meds. The next month I was just on the metform and I got AF on my own with the in August but September came and went and no AF. In September we did another round of provera and then tried 50mg of Clomid with 1500 of metformin. Every week I went for blood work and there were no changes. Every week I went for a sonogram and there were no physical signs of any folicles. At this point (November) she increased my metformin to 2000mg but left the Clomid at 50mg. Again same results same blood work same conclusion.

December 12th (I will never forget this day) at 2:30am my older brother calls me. Now my older brother has always just known things. He sorta has a sixth sense about him. When we were kids he knew when my grandfather passed away the minute it happened. He just sees things that he shouldn't so when he calls or he speaks you listen no matter what time it is. That morning I was at a hotel because Mike had a company holiday party and they put you in a hotel room so you don't drink and drive. I remember answering my cell phone and staring out at the city lights as we talked. His words will stay with me forever and I hope to one day tell my daughter the story. He told me he just watched a program on Discovery Health about these scientists that were trying to prove the power of prayer. He said they took two petri dishes with the exact same virus and stuck them in two rooms with the exact same conditions but one room had people praying over the virus in it. He said that petri dish got better and the other progressively got worse. Then he said "Keri I am praying for you". He said he knew I would get pregnant this next round because I was meant to be a mother. That he just knew it would happen and I just needed to relax and allow prayer to win. My next round was started February 1st. This time we did 100mg of Clomid and 2000mg of Metformin. Again I went for weekly scans and weekly blood tests. Again each week I was told there were no folicles and this was another failed round. Mike's birthday is February 20 and I took him away for the weeked. The fertility drugs were very hard on me and hard on our relationship because I was truly mean on the meds and I took a lot out on Mike. On Monday, February 23rd I went for a P4 test and it came back at .4 and the doctor told me there was no way I was going to get pregnant because I did not ovulate again and to go ahead and start the provera. I knew she was wrong. My brother said it would happen. She had to be wrong so I didn't listen. On February 28th I took a HPT and I saw a very faint line but Mike couldn't see it. I tested everyday till he could see it. I called a friend way to early that day and asked her to met me for lunch. I took a test and had her look at it. I couldn't believe it it was positive. I called the doctor and she tried to keep me grounded. She told to not get my hopes up it could be a cyst. That with my P4 test as low as it was there was no way I could be pregnant because I had not ovulated. That there were no visible folicles to use to get pregnant. That I could not be pregnant. I went for a blood test and it came back inconclusive. I had to wait a week for another blood test and it came back pregnant with a number of 384. Mike and I went in for our first appointment and the doctor said we should not be pregnant. I didn't have an egg. They started calling me the phantom ovulator because they had no medical proof I had ever ovulated. I later found out when my brother hung up with me he called our younger brother asked him kneel beside his bed and they prayed together for me. Makenzie is my first miracle. I recently had my second miracle Kolton. I spantaniously got pregnant after getting just one AF on my own ever in my life completely med free on July 28, 2006. Kolton was born May 26, 2007 and is my reminder anything and everything is possible.
