Tnt - good to see you are getting on ok and not feeling too bad....embrace every minute (which I am sure you are doing)

AJ - hugs to you, keep positive hun.

AFM - I am back on the ttc bandwagon!! I went to the hospital today and although the scan shows I have some tissue remaining it is small and the doctor said it is below the size they would consider operating on....so they have officially 6 1/2 weeks on from my mmc discharged me....wow I am so happy! My first AF arrived last week and finished yesterday so that was a relief. I have been taking maca for just over a week and also my vitamins so here we go again..................

wells girls the good news is OH did his SA

the bad news is i cant see the gyn till 30 march, which means ill prob miss the clomid taking window, and this may be a loooonnnnggg cycle

i could take the soy and not tell her but what if she does want me to start the clomid at the later date?

do u girls think i should take the soy or go au naturale this cycle?


and huuuuuuge congrats celtic and welcome to the world Paulie

Hi Ladies! I had my HSG today! The dye went all the way through my tube!!!!

I was freaking out laying there. They had the blood pressure machine on me and heart rate monitor. My heart rate was 140! They nurse was like you have to calm down. I'm like I can't! This is it for me before IVF! I'm laying there watching the dye go through slowly but surely! All the way to the end! My Doctor says "that's not a bad looking tube" Especially after an ectopic and I have Endo! Holy crap I am SO relieved!! Thank you all so much for being there and being so supportive!

Now I need your opionions.. My doctor is a hard ass.. She says I should wait and we can make a plan before trying again because in her opinion I should do IVF.. But I don't understand why go directly to that if the tube isn't blocked. Yes I understand my risks of another ectopic because 1. I have had one and 2. I have Endo and scar tissue from it. But Why not try? If I get another ectopic then fine.. IVF it is. But I say to try again naturally on our own. For FREE! IVF here where I live costs like $10,000! I don't have that money and plus I'll get one kid and that's it. I can't afford to keep doing IVF over and over for 2 or 3 kids like I want. So what's your opinions ladies? Should i just go for it? O is only a few days away!! Plus I think I'm in better shape now then i was 3 months ago because I had this HSG and i'm more fertile for up to 3 months.

Thanks for your input!!

Yazzy- That is so wonderful hun!! SO happy for you!!

I will be back in a little bit to catch up. Can't wait to see pics of baby Paul!!

 

[dandybrush]

kiki i totally get what you mean, i dont have that kinda money either, so maybe give yourself the 3 months then reconsider the IVF? i know its hard when all we want is that little bundle of joy

 

[Leeze]

Hi everyone - welcome back Yazzy

Char - that's so exciting you get to go on mat leave soon.

Dandy - great news your OH did his SA. I don't know much about soy and clomid, for some reason I think SBB is the one to ask about this - I think she knows about both of these

Kiki - glad your HSG went well I don't know much about ectopic and endo but I'd think unless there's a serious risk of permanent damage from trying naturally then it would be a good idea to try it. $10,000 is a lot of money!!!!

AFM - I'm tired to the point of wanting to collapse (feel like a stuck record at the moment) so I'm going now for an early night!!

 

[SBB]

Yazzy glad you are back to ttc!

Char how's the house stuff going?

Kiki I'd definitely try naturally first... But that's just 'me. Theres nothing to stop you having a normal pregnancy next time. Ok your chances of ectopic are a little higher, but I'd say it might be worth that risk...

Dandy great news on the SA, hope it all comes back normal!

Leeze sorry you're so tired!!

X x x

 

[Kiki0522]

Dandy- Very good news OH got the SA! Fx'd it comes back fantastic! I don't know much about soy so I'm not sure if you should try that again. Could you try it and stop it if your doctor decides to try clomid?

Leeze & SBB- Thank you ladies.. I am going to try again naturally first. The only risk I face is another ectopic and damage to my only tube but going directly to IVF is costly. Plus if I have another ectopic or damage to the tube, we will be going to IVF anyway so I don't see why trying naturally first would make a difference.

 

[dandybrush]

thanx kiki but the soy would replace the clomid you take it the same days as clomid, its not like maca where you take it daily, thanx though

 

[SBB]

Do you only have one tube Kiki? I didn't know that...

What happens if you damage/lose that tube? Is ivf still possible? I don't know much about it sorry...

X x x

 

[SBB]

Dandy knowing your cycles I'd take the soy! What cd will you be when you see the gyne?

X x x

 

[Kiki0522]

SBB- That's okay! Yes I only have one tube. My right tube and ovary had to be removed 3 years ago due to endo and cysts. And yes, I can still have IVF if both tubes are gone. It's actually a better outcome of IVF if both tubes are removed. So to me, it really doesn't make a difference to try naturally first.
