Hi Lorna,

I'm sorry about your miscarriage.

My pregnancy is completely unplanned and prior to this my partner and I had decided to wait to have kids until later, but now that it's happened I worry about what it'd be like to not have the baby anymore and whether we would try again now considering what we'd initially decided.

I know how confusing it is and hope that you find what you need from this site!

name:- wish
profession :- rightnow homemaker

I m ttc from last seven years with no luck,
So my journey so far was seeing a GYN whom told me in a round about way I was FAT an said come back an see me in a month after you have some blood test done!!! An a very nice weight.

Anyway long story short! Started seeing a a new Dr whome I love an got started with me right away! Went had more blood test done an u/s which reviled I have PCO! So I have now started with my new GYN which is great! She did a lap on me an everything came back totaly fine everything was great an tubes are WIDE OPEN!!!! woooo hooo....and yes did had the problem of PCOS so drilling is also done! I have been having AF pain since my lap now I am just waiting to see if AF shows up on her own!!!!

Today got the AF and started meds and diet plan again for starting TTC,I was just siting and thinking i wouldn't have wasted 7 long years if i did updated my self with the topics related to Infertility and its treatment before but also didn't got the idea before. So on "BETTER LATE THAN NEVER " basis i have started my journey and wanted to share the things which i had undergone so as it can help some one so that they are safe from the misdiagnosis and all the stuffs i had to go through.

I will say again the key to over come this infertility is to always upload ourself with as much information as possible,but without straining or stressing ourselves too much.

All these long 7 year i wouldn't have wasted if i was not misdiagnosed aboutt the ectopic which is now cleared after the lap that i didn't have any ectopic so now starting my new ttc from this month , I have been diagnosed as PCOS and primary infertility only,

Hope this can be worked out soon and i l'be getting my miracle soon.
