Has anyone ever heard of or used the OV Watch? It seem like a great tool if you are trying to conceive. I ordered one (pretty expensive) and it will probably arrive this week. Just curious if anyone used it yourself or know anyone who has.

:angry:

Never heard of that, but we used the Clear Blue Easy Fertility Monitor. I got it off ebay for about 1/2 what it retails.

It took me 9 months to get pregnant, but I don't blame that on the monitor. We used it for about 6 months, then I forgot the next two months. The third month, my OB decided I had PCOS, put me on metformin, three weeks later, I was pregnant! I feel like if I had been on the metformin earlier, it may not have taken so long.

The monitor is great though -- very easy to use. We'll use it again for #2 when the time comes.

Well..first and foremost, CONGRATS on your first!! I just received my OV Watch and am anxious to use it with my next cycle. It basically is a wrist watch that digitally tells you your 4 fertile days leading to ovulation. Since I've lost weight, I'm hopeful that I'm ovulating and that this can help us get preggie. Although, hearing about your Metformin experience gives me just as much hope!! I still have some weight to lose but the 40+ pounds will hopefully help since my biological clock is ticking!! Thanks for your input!!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
