Baby 911

[judecorp]

I am so full of emotion I don't know what to do. Do I squee? Do I bounce?

My Jennifer went to the doctor this morning for her annual physical, and while she was there, she had an actual conversation with our doctor about what steps she should take to prepare to have a baby in the next year or two. And while the baby-making isn't in our original timeline, I am so touched and excited that she actually spoke to the doctor about it, starting a productive dialogue, and put words to our mostly unspoken plans. I'm so proud of her for asking all of those questions and taking steps to get herself in a place where she feels she is ready for such endeavors. Wow.

Of course, finding this out has done nothing to quell my baby fever. Now I'm all "OMGZERS, I should take all this Metformin so maybe I can pop out a baby, too!" What the heck is up with that? I am officially losing my mind.

GIVE ME BABY.

How sweet!!!

You'll make such a great mommy!

I know Metformin has different uses and helps different problems. But, how will that help you in preg? Jus curious I know that it helps PCOS and type II diabetes. :)

If Metformin can get all of my PCOS-hormone-issues back on track, maybe I'll start ovulating like a real person! :)

Yeah, I read the communities from time to time, I just don't really want to join any right now. I barely have time to read what I have now! :) Thanks for posting, though.

Hey! I've been taking Metformin for a year. It's helped.

WE CAN BE DRUG BUDDIES!

We can be SISTERS IN POOP. Oh yeah oh yeah.

So did you have all the crazy side effects (constant diarrhea, dizziness, etc.) that everyone is going on about?

[auntiesiannan.livejournal.com]

I had the shits for a bit, and the dizziness the first couple of days. Things have settled down.

Just remember to take it with foodies and you'll most likely be fine.

Thanks, mama. I just took my first pill tonight (but haven't eaten yet). I'm going to take 500mg for a week (I think) before heading to 1000.
