Intro
Hi Ladies!
I'm new here (again). I use to be on here all the time a few years back and stopped when life got a bit too crazy after having my first DD. I loved having a connection to a wealth of knowledge and support that I received when I was here last! I do have PCOS (I saw there was a check-in for that) and I learned so much about TTC last time I was here. DH and I are soon going to start trying for #2 and I'm nervous again! I had low progesterone last time, but was proactive and started taking progesterone before becoming pregnant. I truly believe that is what prevented me from miscarrying. I actually had my levels measured before getting pregnant and I was told I would miscarry if I became pregnant given my low progesterone levels. So I'm going to start taking progesterone again (just a different way, long story). I've been taking my temp for months now and luckily I feel after having my first DD my cycle has been going awesome for about 6 months now!!! (Until, read below.....)
FYI - I found something out recently. I've been having troubles sleeping and I started taking melatonin and although I started sleeping better my cycle got all messed up and out of whack! I wasn't ovulating and was having very bad cramps/bloating/ovulation pain when I was suppose to be ovulating. I researched that melatonin is a hormone and can throw your other hormones off and cause you to not ovulate and throw your cycle off! That is exactly what happened to me, so I stopped right away. I thought maybe this info could help some others.
I hope you don't mind if I join you here!
