Hi Ladies

Sorry I disappeared for a while, but I decided that during my recommended 3 month break from TTC it was too hard for me to stay on the forum - it felt like three months would never pass! But actually it seems to have gone quite quick and now I am back in full TTC mode.

So happy to come back to such amazing news on the thread, twins, scans, adoption! MASSIVE CONGRATULATIONS to everyone. What lovely stories to read.

I hope everyone is well.

Does anyone have any tips for TTC with only one tube then

I wonder if anyone else has experienced this. Before the ectopic I never had any cramps when ovulating, nothing really felt any different. However, since the ectopic, each month around ovulation time, my left side (the one still with the tube) has been cramping quite a bit. Of course being the TTC worrier that I am I am convinced it means something is wrong with my left side too.

Anyway, good luck to all the ladies with their pregnancies, and to everyone else TTC, baby dust

Hi Dlou,

After my ectopic i started experiencing cramping on my left side too. Was so freaked out about it i went to see a specialist, because like you i thought that there was something wrong with my only remaining tube. It turned out to be a mild case of IBS, which could actually be seen on the scan. Incidentally the specialist said that i'd probably developed the problem from the stress of the ectopic and worrying about my subsequent chances of TTC, which i thought quite ironic! Funny thing is that once he told me this, the cramping pretty much stopped - probably because i stopped stressing about it so much. Hope this helps.

My best tip for TTC is temping and using the Clear Blue Fertility Monitor. I fell pregnant in the first month of temping and using the CBFM.

Good Luck Sweetie.

dlou I have to agree with Glasgowgal, I also fell pregnant on the first month of temping (was second month I'd used CBFM too) Good luck hun!

Hope you don't mind, thought I would post an updated pic of Archie seeing as we've had so much good news on the thread recently

So I think I should let u all know what is going on with me. Next weekend I am going to TX to pick up my soon to be son. My niece who contacted me when she was pregnant has now had the baby and wants my husband and I to adopt him. His name is Xavier and he is almost 4 weeks old he was born on Dec 10th. When we go down and get him we will leave with just a power of attorney and will start the process of getting legal guardianship this can take 90 day to be complete we will at that point get a court date and we will go back to Texas to finalize the guardianship. We will probably wait a year or two and then start the adoption process. I am excited, nervous, exhausted scared and a little bit of everything all in one.

Wow.... What an exciting time. Oh amy i am so pleased for you. hoping it all goes well, smooth and your going to be a great mum. Xxx

Archie is gorgeous.

@dlou i get mega cramps/pains around ovulation on my right side (side with my remaining tube). I always had o pain but its quite painful now. Not really sure why. I have IBS too and feels different to that for me x

Archie is gorgeous.

dlou I always had ovulation pain even before my ectopic. But after it I always had severe left sided O pains (right tube was removed) funny thing is with my ectopic although it was right sided I never had an ounce of right sided pain. I always had the nasty left side pain with my ectopic and then even worse with ovulation if that was possibe. I was convinced my tube wasn't any good as it must have been scarring but I was wrong. It worked despite the pain and got my tummy bub safely to its home..
