About 3 years ago I unfortunately had to have my daughter by c-section, soon after she was born we started trying to get pregnant again. At the time I didn't take it into consideration that my periods weren't coming, & because I wasn't having any periods I of course wasn't ovulating. Well a couple of months later I went to see my doctor, & I was describing symptoms I was having & she thought that I could possibly have PCOS. The symptoms I was having seemed to fit with the PCOS symptoms,so she did some blood tests on me & I was then unfortunately diagnosed with PCOS. So after that I knew then that the reason I wasn't getting my periods & ovulating was because I had PCOS. I was disappointed to be diagnosed with PCOS but at least I was able to find out what was going on. Soon after that my doctor put me on provera to get my periods to start, & then she also put me on clomid & 2 months later my periods started coming on there own. And I then also started ovulating, but my body had to pretty much start from scratch, & we waited for a couple of months to see if I would be able to get pregnant. And it wasn't happening we then decided to try going to a fertility clinic, & the fertility specialist said that because I had to have a c-section. He was thinking that my problem was possibly caused by scar tissue from having a c-section. So I recently went & talked to my doctor about how to get rid of the scar tissue, & she told me that the only way that they can see if anything is wrong or not in the fallopian tubes & uterus is by having an
HSG dye x-ray done. So I just recently had the dye x-ray done, & my tubes & uterus looked clear & in good shape. So it's possible that there was scar tissue of some sort before I had the dye x-ray done. So now we will see what happens, we hope & pray that this dye x-ray will take care of the problem & we hope to be able to get pregnant again soon. It's been pretty hard & frustrating for us, but at least I was able to be diagnosed with something so I would know how to treat it. So my doctor has me on clomid & metformin to help treat the PCOS. Have any of you ladies had to have a c-section & needed to have a dye x-ray done to flush out the scar tissue? What are your thoughts & stories about getting rid of scar tissue? Any info. would be helpful, thanks.

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
HUGS!
