I have two children, one 12 and one 7. I have only been on BC a few times to regulate my periods since I am so irregular, over the past 12 yrs. I mean it is so unpredictable, that I never know when it will come or how long/short it will be. I have had an LP Shunt placement surgery done 3 yrs ago. My husband and I have been TTC for the last 7 yrs, with no luck. Finding it so frustrating to keep hoping for a new baby when we have been so unsuccessful. Going crazy!!!
