Val, I was never definitively diagnosed, but they were pretty sure (mostly for future reference, if I had fertility problems). They put me on birth control as treatment. Regulates the hormones or whatever.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Timelies!
Hey, I pluck my beard and moustache regularly, along with my monobrow. Not related to PCOS, just what I've always had to work with. But here's to better diagnoses, and treatments that help.
Remember the link I posted yesterday to my friend's new website to promote her cd, and my regret there was no "listen" button to sample any of the tracks? I mentioned the lack to her, and she says, " I found an on-line retailer with sampling of my CD (three songs at least): www.allmusic.com . Search under my name (Charlotte Whitted) or the CD title: Middle Child. You have to register with them, but at it's free and you don't have to order anything. Amazon, itunes, napster etc. will have it catalogued by end of the month, but if you want a quick listen, allmusic has it up now."
So go, listen.
Hey, lookit that. My coffee cup's empty. Must rectify.
Hi, MG!
Also? It snowed here in the wee morning hours. It's mostly gone now, but--snow! The guys were working outside yesterday in shirtsleeves. Snow.
Happy Birthday, MG!
Today is also my dad's b'day. I have to remember to call him later.
My bf who is very pregnant with twins has the PCOS. Hurray for fertility drugs!
How is Olivia sleeping for you? Are you getting anything that feel like sleep?
Olivia's sleeping like a champ at three to four hours at a stretch. Owen, NSM. He woke up at 2 a.m. last night and refused to go back down. He was up until 6:45 this morning when I was rocking the baby in one arm, and him in the other until he finally dropped into a dead sleep. I tucked Olivia into the chair beside me and managed to pick O up and get him back in his crib where he slept until 10:30.
I then managed to grab two hours. I hope it will get better soon. Until then, I'm just going to get by on autopilot. Christopher finally got more than three hours straight since Monday last night. He's like the walking dead.
It's mostly gone now, but--snow!
Could you please please send us some? I haven't seen it snow here yet. I saw snow in Chapel Hill once last year but nothing down here. I've been hoping it will snow all week.
Happy Birthday, MG!!!
I sure hope Owen starts sleeping better for you.
If all the stars align correctly there's a slim slim chance we could get a teeny bit of snow on Saturday. Mom watched the localnews and she said the meterologist explained that there are 7 criteria for snow here, and 6 of the 7 have to happen for snow (i don't know what they are). Six of these are forecast to happen on Saturday and if they do -- snow. Mom said the newsanchors were pushing him to say it will snow but he wouldn't.
There was supposed to be light snow last year and it never happened.
