I'm starting to work-out I lost 1 1/2lbs this week. It's better than gaining 1 1/2lb. I hope it helps.

Great! I will definitely check in and see how are you doing. As soon as I leave the doctor, I have to jump on an airplane, but I will have my phone with me, so I can check the posts.

for all of you ladies!! This is it!

I'm working out as well and trying to really watch my diet, however, I haven't lost any weight. My RE told me that it was good to work out, but not to expect any weight loss! I asked him why and he said I was taking one for the team! LOL Oh well, glad my hubby likes me on the thick side! LOL I just didn't want to be excessively heavy during pregnancy, but I'm getting over it. I just want a healthy pregnancy and health baby...

to all!

Happy Friday!

Wandering in...

Hi, I guess I'm on a similar cycle to you all. I'm on day 3 and I think my Dr (who also happens to be my DH) intends me to be on clomid for days 3-7. I've been on metformin 1000mg for 3 weeks now, thought my stomach would never adjust!
This is our second series of attempts. We tried 2 years ago with clomid and using DH's sperm. Several attempts, no joy. Then one of 13y/o twins needed his 4th open heart surgery and I got a bit distracted. He's healthy now and got a clean bill of health for (hopefully) the next 5 years.
We're using donor sperm this time round. We tried without clomid etc in September. So this time will work!

Blessings and prayers to all!

PS How do you get the info saved to your signatures?

I hear you! Working out keeps me from feeling totally bad about myself, and I hope fitness will help me manage the pg weight as well. Thankfully, at our weight, we won't be expected to put on 30lbs or more. The hardest part will be keeping the weight gain in the acceptable range...working out is the only way that i can think to do that!

bookinmom- ! Go to User CP at the top of the page and look for a link that says, "Edit Signature" on the left side. I think that's how you do it. Good luck to you this cycle!
