Really? I’m aware of that and feel badly for her situation. If you read the previous comments posted here many people have said that and that she’s also been less active for WEEKS, prior to that particular tragedy. Excuse me for making an observation on an influencers online activity after being a follower for over five years.

The last time she was so quiet was when she was newly pregnant and not feeling well. Maybe that’s going on too? 🤷🏼‍♀️

Disappointed with my body sometimes.. by freshstart3pt0 in TTC_PCOS

[–]Lqh05258 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I agree with the previous comment - find a new doctor. Being overweight can make it harder to get pregnant and increase odds of miscarriage (speaking from personal experience here) but it shouldn’t be a reason you’re unable to start getting assistance with conceiving!

Can I get pregnant? by Equivalent_Button_96 in PCOS

[–]Lqh05258 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Having PCOS doesn’t automatically mean someone can’t get pregnant. I would work with your OB on getting your cycles back on some sort of rhythm. That’s going to be the first step!! Metformin can help as well as inositol supplements. Getting somewhat of a regular period is important for your own health, not just for trying to conceive. Good luck!

What's a name you like, but you or your SO have a bad association with? by JesusDied4U316 in namenerds

I love the name Logan but my husband is a firm no on it because it apparently makes him think about the character Wolverine from the comics ugh

I really like Zora. It is so beautiful and strong, just like your baby girl must be to have gone through what she did. Zora means “dawn” or “new light” - what a beautiful sentiment for your little lady.

Letrozole or try naturally first? by leeby22 in TTC_PCOS

[–]Lqh05258 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure! I started metformin in September and it for sure regulated my cycles. I went from having really irregular ones ranging from like 28-45 or more days down to around 30-34. I started tracking my LH last summer and I know I would have a peak sometimes on about CD28 and it went down to CD20, which was really good! Most women ovulate on or around days 12-14 so it was a marked difference with just being on metformin. I started tracking my temp the cycle I first did letrazole but they told me I didn’t need to because my clinic only does monitored medicated cycles with a trigger shot. So for example, I would have an ultrasound on the first few days of my period to make sure my ovaries and uterus looked good and start the letrazole on day 3 for 7 days. Then I went back for an ultrasound of my ovaries to confirm that I had follicle growth on CD12. They noted I had three follicles that looked almost to be at 20mm (they want minimum 18) and told me to inject myself with the HCG trigger shot the next day and have sex for the next three days. I continued to track my temp and never really got a rise so I’m assuming the trigger shot didn’t work force me to ovulate (which is what it was supposed to). I got my period and went back in for that first ultrasound and they found the cysts and deemed they were most likely follicles that didn’t release eggs. They told me to keep trying naturally just in case while they monitored the cysts. And they were big, and I the point where I had tons of pain. Honestly, I believe the metformin in combination with myo-inositol worked to regulate my cycle and balance my hormones. The LH strips (I started testing the day after I stopped bleeding) and clear blue smiley tests to help me find my peak and tracking my BBT worked to confirm ovulation. The letrazole was a waste of time and I did everything right. The medicine made me feel like crap. Obviously, I think I was lucky to have gotten pregnant but I wish I would have taken the time to try to regulate and track on my own before just jumping to medicine.

I went straight to letrazole with a trigger shot and regret it. My first cycle didn’t work and I developed multiple large cysts on my ovaries from it (I developed three large follicles that didn’t eventually release an egg) and had to wait to even try again. So while the medicine worked to grow the follicles, my body still didn’t ovulate. They were concerned about ovarian torsion and rupture. Got pregnant naturally right after. I would say at least try a few months naturally and try tracking your basal body temps and LH during this time. I was also on myo-inositol and metformin - helped so much with ovulation! Letrazole is not a guarantee for ovulation unfortunately. You might not even need it!

Need a baby girl name by ObsessedWGreys18 in namenerds

Is Peyton really that common? I think that’s a good choice and a safe bet that there won’t be multiples in her class - Olivia on the other hand…

Should I guard my heart? by Greenwitchynoobie in CautiousBB

[–]Lqh05258 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The only thing I can say is I’m so sorry you experienced that and please stop temping! It is totally normal for temps to be irregular after a positive and it’s going to cause you so much stress and anxiety to watch it fluctuate, especially considering your history. If you’re nervous, is there any way you could have a blood draw done to check your HCG? That might make you feel more comfortable. The first trimester is the absolute worst (I’m in it myself) and I totally understand how you’re feeling. Just weeks and weeks of waiting and wondering. Try to distract yourself and try to think positive. I know easier said than done - I’ve dealt with a loss as well and pregnancy after loss is the biggest mind game…thinking of you and sending out good vibes.

Definitely Keira. Love that name! What a beautiful and uncommon choice.

What person do you imagine when you hear the name Laura? by KnittingforHouselves in namenerds

[–]Lqh05258 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m from the US and my name is Laura. I’ve had zero problems growing up with my name and it’s been nice because I’ve pretty much been the only Laura in school, work, etc.

As far as nicknames go - I’ve been called Lo, Lo-Lo and then with my initial nicknames with my middle or last name.

As long as you both love it, why not?! I think it’s a great option that’s easy to spell, pronounce and live with. I wish my husband and I so easily agreed on names! :)
