[Grateful365]

Barbie, that is sooo exciting! I can't wait to hear all about it!!! Nothing better than seeing the little gummies the first time...

 

[wantabby]

Yay Barbie, Good luck!!

I am just waiting on ovulation over here!

 

[LolaM]

tomorrow we make the drive to the RE but im not feeling optimistic, lots that could stop us in our tracks

 

[Grateful365]

Can't wait to hear what the RE says Lola.

 

[Chook]

Good luck Lola! I have everything crossed for you. Let us know how it goes x

I have approx 6 weeks to go. Everything seems to be on track! Just can't wait to have her safe in my arms.

 

[LolaM]

Nothing good. It's not my uterus. Both side are clear. Might be poor egg reserve or my ovaries are too small. Blood tests and ultra sound. Maybe larascopy too. It's not good. Lots of medical intervention with no results.

 

[Grateful365]

Sorry you didn't get better news Lola, but what does the RE think the next step is? Are you now waiting on blood test results? could he see your ovaries on the ultrasound? Keep the faith I know it seems hard

Lola laproscopic is what did the trick with mine and prayer bc I had endo and never knew I had it. Plus I had a cyst blocking in front of my tube that way it made it hard for the egg to get through. He cleared up the endo and released the pressure in the cyst.

 

[Chook]

Sorry to hear that Lola! I hope they find the problem soon and it's a simple fix hun.

I'm getting really excited now MK! The last bit has flown so far. We are ready to go here and have been for a while how are things with you? Have you guys started to ttc again yet?

Any updates Karen?

Where abouts in your cycle are you grateful?

Good luck at your scan barbie!!

 

[J_Lynn]

Lola; the intervention they're going to do is not a bad thing -- don't get too down, the laproscopy helps a lot. The obstacles you listed can totally be overcome - don't get too bummed out!! Here's hoping they get you all fixed up ASAP!!!

 

[Grateful365]

I'm at CD3. While I'm not able to do Femara right now, I am definitely going to be doing the OPK's like crazy to see if my body might be able to conceive naturally this time.

Chook I am SO SO excited for you and your DH. I know you have been through so many struggles in TTC and you are such a testimony to other women here, to not give up and to keep the FAITH. Your almost there and I am so excited to hear all about your birth story and see your LO! Do you know if you are having a boy or girl? Do you have names picked out?

he could not see my ovaries, but I know they are there and I know they HAVE eggs, because ive been through this before. I have to get a special blood test on CD 5 and I have to have ANOTHER transvag ultra sound next week. Im not even sure I want to do this, honestly since its not going to result in anything but more dr bills. He thinks that because my fallopian tubes are straight and not curved they aren't catching the eggs. I don't know if that is something they can correct but I have to get the tests and see what he says,

 

[Grateful365]

Lola - you've come this far, just follow what your heart says to do. I will be praying hard for you to get some positive feedback so you can move forward.

 

[Cridge]

Lola - he couldn't see your ovaries at all?! That seems odd. YOu've had ultrasounds in the past where they've seen them, right? Hopefully you'll get some good news soon!

Chook - I can't believe you're getting so close to the end! I'm so excited for you!!

yes I have had ultra sounds and ive had a follicle count, so I know they are there, he just had a hard time finding them or wasn't sure if that is what he was looking at I guess.

 

[wantabby]

Have you had a lap before Lola? That is where they found my problem, adhesions from my appendectomy in 03'. My Ovaries were stuck behind my uterus, and my uterus was connected to my bowels, a big spider web looking mess basically. . I had ultrasounds and pelvic exams and they never saw/felt anything abnormal before surgery. . It was all a shock to me & my doc!!

I have never had any surgery before. Did they get all that fixed? I'm wondering if they can put my fallopian tubes where they are supposed to be, because they are standing up straight rather than curled around my ovaries, which means they can not grab at the egg!

 

[wantabby]

They did fix everything, they removed the adhesions (caused by infection from appendix rupture) he said everything should be normal now. So hopefully they will find out what is going on with your tubes and fix them!!

 

[Blackbarbie04]

Lola they fixed everything with mine in January add well. I got preggo that next cycle as I started my period two days afterwards
