My SECRET....

Ivy

I was diagnosed with PCOS in May 2018. Since then I have been completely distraught with the idea that I might not be able to have kids naturally or at all.

I broke up with my ex fiancé because we were not on the same page about our future and then I met my wonderful new boyfriend in October 2018.

We have been connected mentally and spiritually since we met. Both of us wanted to have a child soon. I told him that I have PCOS and he told me that having a child with me a soon as possible with his main priority as well as keeping me happy and loving me every day.

So you can say we were actively trying (TCC) since November 2018.

My period has been 26 days late and it is NEVER late. Even with PCOS.

We bought pregnancy tests before Christmas, One said negative and the other one didn’t get a response at all. I think that one was defective. We are both crushed. He stayed strong and told me to have faith that it would happen.

Fast forward to yesterday – January 22, 2019 since I still had not started my period he went out and bought 4 pregnancy tests, I took 3.

After five minutes, even though we only had to wait one minute for one test in three minutes for the other two…

I AM PREGNANT!!!

I was crying uncontrollably and even fainted! He was crying and holding me telling me that we just needed to have faith and keep trying. We are so excited and feel so blessed. Our Hearts are completely full of love!

PSA: I want anyone out there (especially my PCOS Sisters) who may be told by their doctor that it’s most likely not gonna happen for them to get pregnant - to have faith and you just might end up with with your own positive pregnancy test/s.

Please wish us good luck and that I have a safe pregnancy with a happy and healthy baby in the fall.

Xoxo,
