Once Upon a PCOS Time....: Thank you, Fitbit!

Thank you, Fitbit!

My Fitbit Charge HR broke. I took it off and it just ... broke. I got in contact with FitBit customer service and even though my warranty was quite expired, they worked an amazing deal for me. I'm now getting the Fitbit Flex 2 for an extremely discounted price and free expedited shipping. I'm really excited about this choice because this particular model allows you to track your swims. It looks like we're going to become members of the YMCA again and I'm really looking forward to lap swimming again!

Determination is key

This blog truly shows a journey. I encourage you to take some time and read from the beginning up until present day. This journal served as a public release for me - a place to post about my faith, infertility, and pcos. In March of 2011, I discovered that after five years of heart wrenching infertility... we were pregnant. Our son arrived healthy and perfect on 11/7/11. He is our miracle. But we will never forget the journey that brought us here.

When Elliot was about 12 weeks old, my thyroid decided to have a mood swing. I went from being diagnosed with the condition of Hypothyroidism to the disease of Hashimoto's AutoImmune Thyroiditis. I was told that I would probably only have one child, and I was completely fine with this! And THEN.... on January 18th of 2015 ....
I discovered I was PREGNANT! Nora Mae was born on 9/21/15. To be told that I'd never have children and to go on to have two completely healthy babies is something I never take for granted. My children are super close and we pray for Mommy's longing and Mommy's mourning. I do not keep past struggles of infertility a secret.

I would also like to note that it IS possible to be a plus sized woman with PCOS and have a perfectly healthy pregnancy with perfect children. I am proof of this, as are my kids. Both children were conceived naturally and I did not have any major health issues (pre-eclampsia, low birth weights, diabetes) with either pregnancy.

In this blog you will find a wide variety of posts regarding my health, latest research, faith, etc... it truly is a mix!

To all my cysters near and far, known and unknown... never give up. And when all else fails - get angry! It seemed to work for us. I'm here to help. Remember, we may have PCOS but it does NOT have us.

NOTE: All items posted are from credible resources, including from the mouths of leading experts. I attend as many PCOS events as I can which includes the PCOS Symposium which met in April 2016.
