The battle over PCOS, being "clomiphene resistant", FSH injections, metformin, IUI, weight issues and my husband's "very poor" sperm and medical issues to successfully conceive our baby!

Miracles do happen (C5;CD29;8DPO)

I just found out that a girl I know who has been TTC for years has finally got her BFP (big fat positive).

She tested with five different brands of HPTs (home pregnancy tests) and all of them came up positive. She even had a blood test yesterday before doing the HPTs and was waiting for the results to come back, but thought she would test at home in the meantime.

I gasped out loud when I found out - she was just about to start IVF treatment next cycle but was just waiting for AF to arrive. She too has PCOS, and her hubby also has poor sperm quality as well.

The first thing I thought was... 'Wow, it is possible!'. I want more than anything in the world for this to remain a viable pregnancy for her - if not for selfish reasons to prove that if she can do it, so can I - and she's been wanting this for so long. And she's absolutely thrilled that the $3200 she had saved to pay for her first IVF/stim cycle can now be used on her baby instead.

Such joyous news.... the miracle of life really is a miracle.
