I've always wanted to do "what I did different this cycle". Finally can after over a year of TTC!!!

A❤️C

Ladies, keep hope! I've been trying for over a year. I had pretty much given up hope. We were even told by infertility doctors we would probably need <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IVF</a> to conceive. Which was shocking... I got pregnant first try with my first child. Secondary infertility is a thing I never wanted to be apart of. But here we are! I am finally pregnant.

What I did:

A couple months ago I STOPPED all the damn vitamins. I was told to take vitamins from the infertility doctor, along with taking all the vitamins from it starts with an egg book, and a prenatal. I stopped all of it! Lol (was sick of them and didn't think it was possible)

I took strong antibiotics on beginning of my cycle. My doctor believed I had pelvic inflammatory disease brought out from my past IUD. I have very painful ovulation but didn't have painful ovulation before the IUD. If you have pelvic pain, do not ignore it! I'm not sure if this was a coincidence and I just couldn't get pregnant while I had it.

I took myo inositol. I will tell you I tried EVERYTHING in the books to get pregnant from Geritol to preseed to mucinex, etc. but not this, I have regular periods and was scared it would mess it up(it is known to do that if you have a regular cycle) but this month, I was like fuck it. I don't really care if it messes up my cycle because I can't get pregnant anyways 😂 not sure if it was a coincidence honestly but I'm tripped out. I want to add while I wasn't diagnosed with PCOS. I have polycystic ovaries, which is a sign of it but I don't have enough to actually have PCOS. But I took it because I thought it's possible it could help because of my ovaries. Myo inositol is generally for people with PCOS.

I didn't have sex on peak day or ovulation day 😂 I had sex 3 days before ovulation, 2 days before ovulation, and the day after ovulation. Probably the only month I did that, which is weird. Lol

I'm not sure what did it, maybe it was my feeling of defeat and not thinking it was possible anymore. But today I am pregnant and I'm so happy. Prayers for all you going through it right now, this year has been the absolute hardest of my life.
