Thanks Bek....do you have a journal I can stalk
? Good luck on your journey....its very exciting. FX it will be our one and only!
I don't have a journal, never done one up. I will give you a run down on me.
I am 35yrs old, married and have 3 sons. My eldest is 13 in Dec, then my middle boy just turned 11 in June and my baby turned 9 in july.
After I had my 3rd son I had my tubes tied, don't know why, I was only 26 and my friend had done hers, and since the pill makes me sick and I had 3 boys under 4yrs of age, she convinced me it was the right thing to do (yeah right), being hormonal after having a baby didn't help (had tubes done one month after 3rd child).
Anyway after i did it, I cried for days, I was really upset and regreted it straight away, but with 3 young boys to care for, i pushed it aside and got into being a mum of 3.
For years I felt cheated, I felt empty, not complete. I didn't know my tubes could be reversed, I thought they were cut and tied, but they werent, they were clamped. The moment I found out, I rung hubby and we saw my gyno and booked into have them reversed. I thought easy, now I will fall pregnant straight away, but it never happened month after month.
I had a HSG test done and it showed my tubes were still blocked, my gyno wasn't convinced so he met me at the hospital the following month and tried himself to get the dye through, but it didn't spill out
.
So hubby and I stopped for a while, I was gutted, I blamed myself for so long, cause I did this to me, to us, i did it, my stupidity. I got really depressed.
Well Feb this year I went back to my gyno and he did a lap and found my right tube is stuffed but my left was open, yet still no luck. had hubby tested, had all the scans and blood work for me and all came back fine, but still nothing.
So we went to a FS on Tuesday last week and he said, although my tube was open to the dye, it doesn't mean and egg can pass through and that I may have too much scare tissue from the operation and clamps.
So with me almost 36yrs of age and the government may be pulling the safety net from IVF, hubby and i thought NOW was the time to act.
FS said the fact I have had children and the fact I don't have fertility issues as in such, that it is just my plumbing thats broke that for my age my chances are higher.
I did miscarry in between my 2nd and 3rd child and that was hard, but other than that I haven't had much less.
So thats about my story.... YOURS is???
bloody typical. They wrote me a prescription for antibiotics but i'm really concerned about taking them, especially during this stage. They said they'd be safe enough, but i think i'd rather speak to my doc at the clinic tomorrow morn.
