Hi ladies, my husband and I have been trying for 2 and a half years now. We did 6 rounds of clomid plus 1 iui all negative. June 18tg we had surgery. Lap and dye, hsg, d&c and cronotubation which found my left tube was swollen and damaged beyond repair so it was moved. My left overy was attached to my left tube but the doctor decides not to move it. My right tube was open with mild endometriosis. I also had endometriosis in my abdomen and uterus all removed. We got the okay to try naturally in the end of June. Hot my period the 20th right after surgery. Currently in 2ww. We are trying clomid plus iui at the end of July

I had a tubal pregnancy and lost my left tube years ago. was told I couldn't conceive on my own because I also have PCOS. So with my first husband we went through the IVF process with no luck..(blessing in disguise because we are not longer married) Got with my now husband and since I was told I couldn't conceive on my own we never used protection. Well two years after being together we found out we were having a baby! Our miracle baby!!! So yes it is possible but it is a lot tougher is what I am told now with my new doctor. We have now been trying for our 2nd baby for over a year Just a couple months ago we started clomid. Still no baby but I'm trying to stay positive!! As should you! Its definitely possible so keep your head high!!!

Thank you and congratulations well I'm now almost a week late for my AF with no sign of AF coming all hpt are negative so I'm going drs Monday for a blood test im getting twinges in lower belly and lower back pain hoping and praying its a normal pregnancy or AF is just very late (cycle day 41!) I never go past cycle day 35. I'm hoping its not another ectopic I honestly don't know what I will do as I only have 1 tube now xxxx

 

[apoppoff]

41 days is a very long cycle. I'm crossing my fingers for you!! I completely understand your concern on the tubal pregnancy again! One of my biggest fears is losing the other one!!! Let me know how your doctors apt goes!!

Sending luck your way!

When do you get your blood test results?

 

[Kalia101]

Well I'm on cycle day 45! Went drs yesterday I have to go back in a week if still no AF they think it could be iv been stressing my self out about it iv delayed my period, also I have Poly cystic ovarys but iv not been tested for the syndrome because iv had regular periods since coming of the patch beginning of the year so it could be iv ovulated very late or not at all yet.. So I'm starting on the OPK kits to see how they go over the next week.. I'm sooo scared of losing my tensing tube to and I think it may be stress I'm hoping I all of a sudden get a BFP and it was just my hormones weren't picking it up but I think it's stress or the poly cystic ovarys now tbh... It's so annoying when you want something so bad isn't it xxx hope you all get BFPs soon and healthy pregnancies xxxx

 

[Dannixo]

Well ladies another for me.. Looks like the surgery isn't going to make this any easy.. Af should be here by morning. Like clock work. Ugh! So frustrating! I know it was a natural cycle but one can still hope. Been cramping really bad all morning. Calling the doctor when I start then back to round 7 of clomid plus iui again.

 

[Kalia101]

Ahh sorry danni hope you get a BFP next month xxxx

 

[apoppoff]

aww bummer ladies! This is all so frustrating!! Its always something. Just started my 3rd round of Clomid. Hoping for a BFP! Good luck to you as well!!!

 

[Kalia101]

Hi just thought I'd update this since I posted this back in July, on November the 8th I found out I was pregnant I am 6 weeks pregnant today still early days yet but it can happen and I have one tube and pcos when I got my BFP I was due to go my doctors a few days later about starting to take clomid as I wasn't ovulating every month.

Hello just came across this post , I am now 7 weeks pregnant only 2nd month of trying! Unbelievable! I had ectopic past June and lost my left tube (after rupture) was then told i was high risk, I had an early scan at 5+5 and one again in 2 days so we know baby is in the womb, it's nice to find people who have also gone through the same thing and now expecting/already have children too! I just had to post good luck to you all xxx

 

[missaria]

Thank you ladies for sharing your success stories! I am on my third cycle of trying post-tube removal. I'm trying to stay positive and calm, but some days it's really tough.

Your success stories made me smile

 

[Daynaa]

It is tough and so nerve wrecking, I was told my chances were very slim as it was some kind of infection that started it in the first place, but it appears your body is much greater than you think! Stay positive, try to not think about it and just do it, keep occupied good luck and I hope it's not too long for you xxx

I have a ten-year-old that wasn't planned, she was the best 'accident'. I feel very selfish coming to a forum like this and 'complaining' when many people don't have any.

Five years after my daughter, I had an ectopic pregnancy. My Fallopian tube ruptured and I had massive internal bleeding, they had to remove the tube and I was told conceiving naturally wouldn't be easy. At the time I wasn't sure I wanted another child; I was separated from her father, barely 25 and a single mom but the option being taken away from me was devastating.

For the past two years, my new husband and I have tried to conceive. It was very frustrating and defeating, even more so because it seemed like everyone I knew was getting pregnant.

I'm sure you girls know what that feels like!

We hadnt been to any specialists yet, we were just trying naturally. I got several books on fertility and looked into the different options available, we became so overwhelmed we quit actively trying. I quit tracking my cycles, taking me temp, ovulation kits, etc.

That was about 6 months ago. Tonight, realizing I was late, I took a pregnancy test, seconds later I got my BFP! Skeptically, I took two more, again both positive! But now I am simply terrified to have another ectopic! I haven't had any spotting or pain, but I'm still afraid to tell anyone (besides my husband of course).

It was nice to read the success stories but waiting until Monday to see my OBGYN is killing me!

Thank you for reading this. This community seems like a lovely group. Good luck to everyone!

Hi Analiese,

Congratulations on your BFP!!!!
I am so happy to see your post, as since my ectopic pregnancy last year April, it has been a struggle to fall pregnant! You truly have given me hope! I can understand your fear of another ectopic pregnancy, but I think you should rather be positive! And enjoy the miracle you have within you!! Be in tune with your body, and if you feel healthy, then everything will be just fine!
I'm on my 3rd round of clomid / fertomid and hoping this is the month i get my BFP. I had IUI in February of which didn't worked, I was so heart sore
I feel so positive this cycle. I'm only due to test next week Thursday, so this 2ww is driving me nuts

Anyway, again congratulations x x x

HH, your positive attitude is very admirable! My husband says the same thing, I always go to the worse case scenario, which is silly and pointless.

Luckily, I found out I am indeed pregnant and the baby is right where he/she is supposed to be. I'm eight weeks along-which was a total shocker, I mentioned I quit tracking my cycles but I had no idea how far off I was (considering I am usually very regular).

Anyway, your right, I should have trusted my body rather then the anxiety in my head! My heart goes out to you, I think waiting is the hardest part! Again, hearing your story and how hopeful you are is amazing. I hate to admit that I struggled with my anger, any time I would hear about a girlfriend getting pregnant it became difficult for me to be truly happy for them (as shameful as that is to admit).

Thank you for your kind words, I hope you get your BFP soon

Hi Analiese,
I just wanted to keep you posted, and let you know that I finally got my BFP!!!! I am officially 4weeks and 6 days preggies
I am now in the same boat as you were in a week or two back, and I too worry about this pregnancy. I went to see my FS/Gynae yesterday for my first check up, as he wanted to check earlier because of the past ectopic, and although there is not much to be seen at this stage, he says he doesn't see any blockages in my tubes or ovaries. I have another appointment scheduled for two weeks time, of which I will then be 7 weeks, and I will then be over the "danger period" of the dreaded ECP!
But enough about me, how are you?? How are you, Hubby and your little growing bambino doing?

Look forward to hearing from you soon x x x
