PCOS/trying to concieve

Hello ladies!
I am looking for some friends who also struggle with PCOS or are having trouble conceiving. My hubby and I are planning on starting to try and conceive in about six months. We have two beautiful little boys, but getting those precious gifts proved to not be an easy task. Having PCOS, I very rarely (some years I don't) have a period so TTC can be extremely difficult. My oldest son was a bit of a surprise. Hubby and I were not thinking about getting pregnant because I was told by doctors it would be impossible. Well, 2 months into our marriage, we found out that son #1 was coming. We started trying when he was about one and it took 1 1/2 or trying and most of that time it was on different meds. It was a horrible process.
We want to start trying in June after he gets back from deployment, and even though I know that this is a weightloss site, I would like some friends who are going on the journey with me. It is important for me to try and do it naturally this time around. I have lost 12 pounds since I have started my journey on a healthier me and I have started exercising. My doctor told me that by loosing 20 pounds, I could possible balance everything out. I know it is just a possibility, but balancing out hormones and being able to try in a less stressful, more natural manner is important to me. I think it is going to be well worth my work!
Anyways, I am just looking for friends who are going down a similar journey that I can get and exchange advice and just have support from in general! TTC and failing is an emotional journey that no one should ever have to go down, and if they do have to, they should have supporters all around them who understand because too often family and friends don't!
