things I have recently learned

Things I have recently learned:

1. Metformin may have helped me tremendously with my hypoglycemia and has helped me to get periods, but...

2. A period can occur even if ovulation has not.

3. "Many women with PCOS think they're ovulating because each time they use an OPK, it turns positive. That's because the urine test detects LH, which in some women with PCOS remains elevated."

4. Temping sucks but it has given me further evidence that I am so not ovulating.

5. Secretly hoping for the past four months that we would randomly get pregnant due to thinking that Metformin was helping me to ovulate and Neal's sperm would get better due to his not smoking was all a waste. (Well, not necessarily a waste... it's been lovely not actually going through treatments and taking crazy-making drugs.)

Things according to my 9-year-old niece, Katlyn:

1. Life is boring without me in Ohio with her.

2. My newest nephew who was born on 2/19 weighed 17 feet at birth.

3. We should definitely adopt a little girl about Katlyn's age.

4. We should not adopt siblings because they'd fight all of the time and give me a headache.
