ady:

A friend of mine had been trying for several years and still nothing. Her gyn never referred her to a fertility specialist or anything. When she finally took it upon herself to go, she found that she had a really rare situation that will probably at this point prevent her from ever getting pregnant. If she had sought help earlier, perhaps something could have been done.

I did have the nauseated feeling Saturday for like the first time. I mean....it came on..and then after a few minutes..BAM! It was gone. This was all day, but then yesterday..nothing. Today..nothing. SOOO..I am wondering if it is a reaction to the prenatal vitamins or something I ate....don't know! I hate waiting, but Thursday/Friday-ish..we should know!

Good luck Carrie

Deb - I do have Polysystic Ovary Syndrome and possible scarring of my fallopian tubes. I go for test on the shortly. I see my doctor Thursday to arrange those tests (they are supposed to be painful!).

Ady dear, I really wish you the best! I know how badly you've been wanting this and I truly hope that through all the hassle of the doctors & etc, you'll finally get your wish!
Sending positive thoughts & many prayers your way.

Oh..You too Carrie and Ericka!

BTW, Carrie when do you take your vitamins? A lot of people take them in the morning when they get up, but since they are stronger they tend to upset your tummy more. Try taking them at night before you go to bed and don't drink any milk products for at least an hour before or an hour after you take them. Dairy products will make the iron in the vitamin "stick" to the dairy product and will not get absorbed. Just thought I'd let you know in case if you didn't!

Nope..I did not know that!! The instructions, though, do say to take without food...empty stomach sort of thing. However, when I had my first 15 days of it, I had samples and I just took them when I ate....so I don't know if it is pg things going on or prenatals going on.

*sigh*

Depending upon the vitamins, sometimes a saltine will help with them too. I only get sick on massive quantities of B vitamins so the pre-natals haven't affected me yet. (Been taking them for 4 years now--best prepping I've ever done!)

My Mom also only gets sick on B vitamins with yeast so if your pre-natals have yeast in them, try a different formula.

Ahhh...looks like Aunt FLO is starting to rear her head. UGH. Guess I will have to wait another month to find out again!
