Christian ladies TTC, we can encourage one another.

Congratulations no doubt! She looks amazing and I am so proud of you for following through with your gut feeling!
 
NoDoubt - I knew in my gut your gut was right! So glad it all went well and that she's healthy. What a relief to have that gorgeous little one in your arms finally. Congratulations!

AFM - CD2 of 27th cycle TTC. This is our last fully natural cycle. I'll go on a letrozole protocol (possibly letrozole and ovidrel...not sure if it will be with or without iui yet) in January. I'm not holding any expectations for this month...feeling kind of down about it...
 
Congrats No doubt!!!!!
Sorry your down Prowife, but hoping your body just needs a little help to get you your thb!!!
 
Thank you all.

Haven't had much of an an opportunity to post but know that I am reading and paying for you all.
 
Hi ladies

Hope everyone is doing well! Profwife I really hope you have success with fertility help. Sometimes we just need a little medical boost x

My surgery yesterday went OK. The anaesthesia was really bad as I went into hypothermic shock and got nerve damage in my right arm due to the anaesthetist struggling with the IV line, had a lot of pain and then a bad reaction to the pain meds :dohh: ... But the lap&dye gave a lot of info. It showed that my endo is back (stage 3) which the dr removed. Left ovary looks bad and was completely adhered to the posterior abdominal wall, she cut it loose and hopefully it will function better now. Left tube is occluded. Right ovary however has a nicely growing follie and right tube is open! Will just have to see if I still ovulate this cycle and if we get our timing right. But at least now I know that there is still a chance of us falling pregs; dr said especially now that the endo has been treated! :happydance:

Thanks for all the support xx
 
Praying you heal quickly and that they can do something for that nerve damage! Scary!

I'm in a better place these last couple of days. However, doc needs an u/s before I can start letrozole...and it has to be cd2/3...I'll likely be out of town. So, it means I might have to wait a whole additional month. If I'd know that, I would have done it THIS month rather than waiting 2 additional. Why do doctor's think that forgetting to mention something like a time-sensitive ultrasound isn't a big deal?
 
Hi ladies

Just quickly popping in to say hi! Hope everyone has a nice week ahead, almost Christmas celebration time!

Profwife please let us know what your decision is for this cycle? All the best!

I'm healing OK after the lap&dye, arm still not great :/ will phone the hospital tomorrow. I might have ovulated but then again I haven't really been taking my temps/OPK's every day so I don't know when that might have been. Dr did mention that a follie on my left ovary ruptured during surgery so it might be that my body is picking that up as ovulation. I don't think we have a good chance of falling pregs this cycle; think our timing was off again and that the surgery so close to O time messed things up. But I'm not too worried, on to next cycle with one open tube and no endo (for now)!!
 
Fern - I was told my surgery cycle would likely be a no go due to the trauma in the area when the took out the endo.

AFM - We're going back to opks, temping, trying for every other other or every third day until we get a positive opk. Then every day until day following confirmation of ovulation. I'm still on my low-dose steroid. Will talk to hubs about getting a blood test for progesterone a week post-ov...if my doc will approve it.

As soon as I get confirmation of ovulation temp-wise I'll call my RE to schedule next cycle's ultrasound as close to their marker as possible so we can do a medicated cycle in January (still uncertain if it will just be a medicated or if it will be an iui).

GL to you!!!

My dr removed stage 3 endo and just told us to "go home and have sex" because of the small chance that I would still ovulate! We did the next day but it was so painful and I don't even think it was worth it. If I have to have a lap done again in future, I will also just wait a month to heal.

May not take a full month. I was back to feeling good about a week later. We still tried that month, too, but my lap was day 6 and I didn't ovulate until day 15/16 that month. I was still bleeding from the surgery; so, we weren't about to do anything until that resolved.

Praying for you.
 
I literally JUST got the news that I passed my degree with a distinction (cum laude)! Also the one place where I teach offered me double the hours and double the salary for next year. I am in tears; so overwhelmed and grateful. Just had to share that victory with everyone.

All the glory to God!
 
Thanks ladies!!!

I think I'm just going to skip trying for the rest of this cycle as my fertility signs/temps make no sense. I think the surgery messed up my hormones/chemical responses. And then try again next cycle! Hoping that my dr will give me another 3 months script for clomid 100mg.

Hope everyone has a good day as we all get into the festive Christmas celebration spirit! <3
