ok so who wants to get pregnant in 2011? (closed group)

[sarahincanada]

I was wondering where babyhopes was! I wanted to enjoy her pregnancy glow!

so I have my pre-op tomorrow and I think its actually with my FS so I am going to ask lots of questions about the polyp and if she thinks its in the way. I want to double check if theres any other blood tests I could do, I hear about people doing them mid cycle, where I have only done the general fertility test and day 2 of period test.

she had casually mentioned clomid to me before, and I want to ask more about that as I want to wait 3 months after the removal to see if I can get pregnant naturally, then try that. but then some of me thinks thats silly why dont I do everything now as time is running out! but I would love to see if it was just the polyp so I think I will wait.

I will update when I get home. NY Im thinking about you and hoping that the spotting is nothing

Good luck with your Op Sarah, and hoping you are able to fall pregnant very quickly after that nasty polyp is gone.

NY, I echo Sarah's hopes that your spotting isn't anything to be concerned about and that your upcoming scan will show a healthy growing baby.

NY hoping and praying for you that everything will be ok.
Sarah, hope the pre-op goes well!
Sheryl hope everything works out with your DHs job. It really sucks that the US has such a complicated health care system. I hope you can work out the insurance thing.

dont know why im not allowed to do anything. i cant have an avatar or my signature. i really wanted to add it on.

im 5 weeks and 2 days along now and my count has gone up from 380 - 461 today.

just deciding on which hospital to stick with.

sarah i am so very happy for you that your appointment is tomorrow and now you can get it over and done with. i know your date is in march but youre getting there

NY, im sure everything will be ok, you're far gone now anyway and im sure there will be no issues at all

Sheryl, thanks for all your help, setting me up with FF and being so nice.

awwww Im glad you cant leave me! you have to keep me entertained while I patiently wait for my bfp! I like to think Im a lucky charm, quite a few people who have been trying to get pregnant for years get pregnant on my threads I look forward to hearing all about your pregnancy and you can help me through mine

I am going to keep up with those of you on this thread but I have decided to move over to WTT for 2 months. Hopefully things will be worked out by then.

please stay with us! so you have definitely decided to WTT for 2 months? FX'd everything works out for you very soon

 

[sarahincanada]

I'd say im 6-7 weeks along. Im on baby aspirin too. Seems more worrysome in my situation though just because i had some brown starting friday and saturday. Went away sunday and monday. Now today has shown up again. That to me seems like an issue. I will be finding out either way on thursday but not looking forward to it one bit.

NY Im thinking of you, not sure what time you are going to your appointment tomorrow but I will be on here waiting for an update. If you come online tonight I was wondering if the spotting continued or stopped? We are all here for you whatever the outcome

so my pre-op went well! it was mainly a bunch of paperwork and her explaining how they get the polyp out. they did tell me a few interesting things:

• the polyp is growing exactly in the area of the uterus that is the 'preferred' place for implantation. but there are other areas of the uterus that the embryo could implant.

• they cant say for sure if this is stopping me getting pregnant, but would prefer to take it out because of the size. they said that my tubes were not blocked as water went through easily on the sono, and therefore technically sperm should be able to move through to the tubes just like the water did.
however the water goes through the uterus at a quicker more 'forceful' speed, so it is possible that the polyp is stopping sperm entering my tubes.

• they are going to take a photo of the polyp and show me after!

• I met the assistant first, and I mentioned to her that Im due to ovulate about 7-10 days after the op. she said that I should skip that cycle and wait for my period I was very upset to hear that, and so asked why. the only thing that she really could come up with was that if people get pregnant right after and miscarry, they blame the operation. but that the operation would not be the cause (so why skip?). so I was confused, as Id prefer to take the risk than not trying at all. so I asked my FS her opinion, she was more concerned about the cycle BEFORE the op and making sure I wouldnt be pregnant. So I said that I would be having another period before the op, and I would not have intercourse from period to operation. So Im not going to skip the cycle after, if I got my bfp and miscarried I would not be blaming the operation.

• After my operation I book a post-op with my FS. Then she agreed I should go away and keep trying, and book to see her 4 months later. So that would be July time. Then we would discuss Clomid and other options to 'speed things along'.

and thats about it! the operation is only 10 mins, but I do go under general in the hospital. I just cant wait to get it out and see if that helps things. If not at least I have a plan.

so I have one more cycle before the operation, boy I wish I would just get pregnant on that one, but reallly that is sooooo unlikely. then the cycle after the op is my last chance to give birth this year. but thats ok, my new goal is to get pregnant naturally by july!!

thanks for listening, my bfp girlies I hope to be joining you very soon

I am going back to work on Monday and I don't know how many hours I will be working. If it's a lot as I suspect it may be I will be too stressed out and tired to . If it's not I still don't want to get pregnant just yet because 1. I don't know how bad early pregnancy will be and I don't want to not be able to work after they bent over backwards to help me and 2. I need to be under a group plan for the pregnancy to be covered so I have to wait for DH to get a new job.

And I am totally with you on the July goal.

Good news on the polyp sarah, though when they say if people ,miscarry.. but they should have mentioned whats the chance of miscarriage soon after polyp removal? it would be a bummer to have to wait that cycle out as well but im glad that you want to wait before clomid.

i have to say something. a doctor i saw yesterday, put me on progesterone hormone inducing pills, without even having the decency to check whether i have proges deficiency. the pill is called dyphaston and she said this is to make your pregnancy stronger.

basically its a pill to regulate your periods etc and its a hormone inducing pill.

i am pregnant five weeks and i googled it and some articles say "do not take while pregnant as it could affect your babys development"

i flipped and was so mad. but thank god i had had only one dose that afternoon. she had prescribed two times a day but im so glad i googled it and thought to myself wait. this is the same woman, who without testing me for ovulation , was more than glad to say that she would prescribe clomid. and then at yesterdays appointment, she never checked my proges levels and has simply prescribed a hormone inducing pill, that when researched online could be harmful for my baby !!

i flipped out at home and then decided to stop taking it. thank god she isnt my gynac.

i just went to her because i couldnt get an appointment with the gynaecs i wanted to try out and just wanted to start taking folic etc before my new appointments !

thank god i had the sense to do some research. even DH was like when theres nothing wrong with you, why would she prescribe hormone inducing pills !

anyway, sorry for rambling on .. just had to let yáll know that when you get your bfp's please be careful about the meds your doc prescribe. essentially they shouldn't prescribe anything other than folic and multivitamins to help you carry the natural way.

Glad the pre-op went well Sarah. Sounds like a good plan you have!

 

[MummyCat]

Sarah... thanks for posting that about your pre op!

I think ignore the assistant! She's probably thinks that she is trying to save you from possible heart ache... but do what you feel best!!

That polyp is so def what's causing the issue! I'm sure of it!! I can NOT wait until March!! You might not get the chance to give birth this year... but Jan is a nice month... so is Feb (I'm a Feb baby!) Oh I'm so excited for you my dear!!!

NY... hope all goes well today! Thinking of you!

Glad to see you back babyhopes!!

 

[babyhopes2323]

FX'D.. i just want you to get to first tri so you can be with all of us.

I have my US today and im so nervous I feel like i'm going to hyperventilate. Its also my 7 year olds bday today so im trying to have a cheerful disposition for her but when she goes to school I will surely be a mess I think. Hope its better than i'm expecting it to be.....
