TTC after a Tubal Reversal

[cdb]

I was just wondering if there is anyone out there like me who is now ttc after a tubal reversal. If so, what are your lengths? Any BFPs?

Me 37
DH 34
TL - 7/16/92
TR - 8/3/09 / right 5cm left 5cm
BFP - 2/12/2010 - lost right tube
HSG - 3/2010/ left tube open and flowing freely
IUI with injectibles #1 06/2010 = BFN
IUI with injectibles #2 07/2010 = BFN
IUI with injectibles #3 11/2010 = BFN

Last round of IUI starts this week as soon as AF comes.

I would love any insight from other TR patients!!

No experience, just wanted to wish you luck.

How old are your kids?

They are 19 and 16. DH and I have been married for 16 years. My older son is in college and our 16 year old is about to be a senior in HS. It won't be long and we won't have any babies at home. We can't have that. lol How old are your precious ones? And good luck to you too!!

Yes, an empty house sounds just terribly lonely. We must keep them full, lol!

My kids are 8, 6, and 2. My first was 19 months and 4 IUIs for unexplained infertility. Now I'm on to cycle #11 and for a variety of reasons, I'm not doing IUI again. So. . . I'm not sure if it will happen or not. Plus, I'm older. I had trouble conceiving at 25, now I'm 34.

Hoping we have our bfps soon!

Really? You got a BFP on the fourth try of IUI? I was sitting here discouraged b/c we are doing a fourth round and everything I have read says it is pointless after the third round. Guess they haven't met your little miracle huh? I really wanted to go ahead with IVF but my RE is determined to do this round of IUI. He's the boss so here we go. lol I already have it in my mind that IVF is what I need so I don't wanna hear anything else. lol So far our insurance has covered all the rounds of IUI, I just pay $20 bucks for each visit. I am hoping it is close to the same for IVF. Actually I really hope AF stays away this week and we don't need anything. lol It will happen...for both of us!

Yes, the 4th IUI!!!
We were taking classes for IVF and my husband suggested that we do the last IUI while we were waiting. I was sure it wouldn't work, but went along with it because he suggested it. And we got our first baby!
Hoping it works for you too!

Now that is just too cool! Thank you so much for reaching out to me. I really appreciate this tid bit of info. Did you do injectibles? Do you remember how many follies you had. They have had issues with me responding too quickly to the meds, even on low doses. My follies get to 16 and 17 on just 5 or 6 days of injections. That seems too quick to me but I don't know. Anyway, thanks again!

Oh, you're welcome!
I didn't do injectables, but clomid. I remember that I had 3 follicles, because after my bfp I was thinking "Oh crap! What if there's 3?" Then after my first scan showed 1, I thought "What about the other 2? Where did they go?" lol.

Oh goodness. I believe I just saw on another post that you are an OB nurse. WHEN I do finally get preggers, I am going to bug the crap out of you!! lol

As long as it's related to pregnancy or a uterus I can help you out! Don't ask me anything about fractures, burns, or adult men!

LMBO! Yes ma'am, I think I can handle that.
