PCOS Experience - Hope

I want to tell you a little story about a young lady I know who has PCOS and has wanted a baby for years.  Her first husband wanted kids too but although they tried (never used protection), they never even came close.  The marriage lasted a little more than 10 years.  When they broke up it just about devastated her....she took a long look at herself and made some changes for her own health.  She lost weight and worked really hard at getting healthy.  The goal wasn't anything more than becoming a better her...

She met and fell in love with a guitar playing construction worker.  He swept her off her feet and made her feel special.  That combined with her good health resulted in quite the miracle.  His name is Tommy.  Baby Tommy was born about 4 months ago to beaming parents.  She couldn't be happier with her unexpected blessing.  I can remember the day I got the text with a picture of her over the counter pregnancy test stick...I just about dropped to my knees.  You see, this lovely lady is my sister.
My point here is that she didn't give up on herself.  She worked hard on what she wanted most which was to be healthy.  Baby Tommy came after she got healthy and reduced the stress in her life.  Two factors that all PCOS women fight to achieve.  It is possible...and you can do it...I have faith in you and so does baby Tommy!
