Back to the drawing board
Well, after having been really excited 3 weeks ago where I had gotten a really good amount of eyelashes back to the point I felt partially normal, here I am almost back at square one. I really hate relapses. I just hate that once it starts it goes on for days and days with no stopping it. I haven't had decent eyebrows in years because any time I get an urge I tend to try to pull those instead of eyelashes. I'm pretty well accomplished at drawing my eyebrows on that it doesn't phase me as much anymore. My eyelashes on the other hand, I'm devastated when those disappear. I would loooooove to have both eyebrows and eyelashes, but I start feeling like such a freak when my eyelashes are gone.
This relapse isn't helping my stress level either since I'm already stressed from the fact that my husband and I having been trying to get pregnant for about 10 months with no luck so far. That's been bad enough. Just trying to push through and hope for the best

Hi Rae, trying to fall pregnant is very stressful.
I had an ectopic pregnancy many years ago and I was nearly frantic until I fell pregnant again. The doctor told me not to think about it and to keep myself occupied but that didn\'t help either. Then he told me that because I\'d lost one tube, my chances of falling were very slim.
My poor husband used to get dragged through the front door when my temperature went up to the point he felt like a laboratory rat in an experiment. Once I gave up trying, hey presto! It happened.
Just make sure you and your husband are keeping healthy - and a weekend away helps too. That worked for my daughter twice. She has polycystic ovaries and had trouble. Yet twice on the Australia Day long weekend (26 January) she went away and twice she fell pregnant with my two darling grandaughters.
She\'s banned from going away again though .... :-)
Lots of hugs from Bella xxxxx
Thank you for the advice and the hug Bella!! Maybe my husband and I should be planning a long weekend in the near future :) I am trying not to think about the ttc as muh as I can, but it\'s become an obsession. It\'s especially hard when you know 5 different people who are pregnant. I think this last relapse finally made me decide that I needed to try and do something to help myself reduce the stress, so I found this website, and really wish I had done so years ago! I am really looking forward to getting to know people and hearing their stories. I don\'t feel so alone anymore. I hope the information you\'re providing does put us a step further in finding a cure.
Thank you again and hugs to you :)
