One Tubers

[Tesa]

HI everyone - Ive just found this thread - can I join? I lost my baby to an ectopic in 2007 and have been trying to conceive again since last month (took a while to get health back right again after that!)

Honestly Ive been trying to 'ignore' my one tubeness so far in this process because I dont want to think my chances are any less (its so much harder to get a BFP than I thought anyway!) BUt it would be nice to follow other peoples stories and us all get BFPs very soon!

 

[puppymom32]

welcome Tesa,
So sorry for your loss. Hope you get that long awaited BFP real soon.

thanks for reply havent been on 4 a while my gyne has put me on clomid to start nxt af hope it wont be long xx

 

[puppymom32]

Did you get your results Winston? Hope things went well. My dr put me on clomid and it didnt work for me so we just went to the Metformin and that is what I am on now.

Hey Tesa - welcome and hope your stay is short!

Winston - hoping the clomid does the trick for you this cycle

Puppymom - how are you doing?

AFM - onto cycle 20! Hard to keep positive, but will do my best to press on!
xx

Same here Olive I sure was hoping that last month was our month but I guess it wasnt meant to be. I am gonna pull back and stop obsessing and let whatever happen that is going to happen. I am stoping all the meds except for prenatal and epo not charting anymore or using OPK's and just gonna live and let whatever happens happen.

olive - witch arrived yet? i would have caved by now if not!!
puppymom - hmmm wonder why you had such a different af? its so hard trying to figure it all out isnt it!
Im feeling well, still cant believe its real yet - i had a scan at 8 weeks and all was looking well have my 12 weeks scan 12th oct so will keep u posted. I was so worried it would be ectopic due to history feel so so lucky xx

tesa, my doctor is a gynae and she said that i had no less chance of falling pregnant due to having one tube! didnt make sense to me but shes the gynae not me so i trust her and lo and behold i got my bfp 2nd month ttc - hope that gives you more hope

Thanks for this. My doctor said the same thing (something about how the egg just finds its way(?) Im choosing to go with that explanation too but I cant help worrying if I think about it too much...

Also can any of you answer for me this question. When I had my ectopic the hospital told me if I ever found i was pregnant again to come straight to the early pregnancy unit for an internal scan to check everything was where it should be. But my GP didnt think that was necessary when I told her i was ttc. Who is right?

Hope I match your record and make it in month 2!. Congratulations on your BFP!

 

[puppymom32]

My midwife said if I get pg they will schedule an early scan so they can make sure its not in the tube. Usually this happens around week 5 or 6 or it did for me in the US anyways prior to that they cant really see anything anyways. So I would say there is no need to rush unless getting appointments is a nightmare where you are.

 

[Tesa]

Thanks Puppymom. Good to know. Hopefully things will go well next time for us both!

Hey! Just saw your status 'Ready to give up?' NEVER give up!. I have a good feeling about this and I wish you all the luck in the world to get your BFP before Christmas

[puppymom32]

Thanks Tesa,
I'm not gonna give up just yet but I am gonna try and relax and just let whatever happen that is gonna happen. So tired of stressing about it every month. makes me and my body crazy. Thanks for the support.

hi.....im sure ive posted in this thread b4 but cant seem to find it now lol.... We have been ttc for 13 mths now, i only have 1 tube & 1 ovary due to the others being removed when i was 3 days old. I conceived my daughter who is nearly 4 now after just 6 mths ttc so it can def happen!!! Its disheartening for me this time around tho as its taking so long to get pregnant. Husband was told in aug that he has low sperm count & motility so he has just repeated the test ready 4 the specialist next week. I have polycysts on my only ovary but apparently i am ov & my periods are regular but im hoping she will put me on clomid to help produce more better eggs!! Dont really know what she will say or do 4 us next week.....xx

Dancing,
So sorry it has taken so long. Hope she will put u on the clomid and it will work for you. Best wishes and let u know how you get along. Have you considered trying IUI with your husbands sperm count and motility? Are you ovary and tube on the same side?

 

[Dancingkaty1]

hi again.....I would love to do iui, the last count was 17 million with i think 60% motility....would iui work 4 us??? i heard some where the motility has to be very good still??? i will mention this next week when i see fertility specialist i think, hopefully the waiting list isnt too long hey! Yes, sorry 4 any confusion my ovary & tube are both on my right side. Last time we saw the specialist was 27th aug, she booked me in 4 the hycosy which ive now had done & said i will see u in 8 weeks ( 22nd oct) i was a bit disappointed but looking 4ward to having the hycosy done. I just so hope she doesnt see us next week & say 'oh husband sperm seems to have improved slightly, lets leave it another 8 weeks & see what happens' that would be my worse nightmare!!! ive been waiting long enough for a baby....hoping she can book me in 4 iui or give me clomid...or do both fingers crossed!!! xxx

 

[puppymom32]

I dont think it would hurt to give it a try if the wait isnt too long. Is there anything that he can take to help with his issues. Hopefully the hycosy will come out fine. I think not knowing what is going on is the hardest when everything comes out fine and you still have no anwers. You might just need to try the clomid and then if that doesnt work try the IUI. FXXX you get your much deserved BFP way before you even have to go for the hycosy.
