Tubal Reversal ladies, just moved from WTT!!!

[Kuawen]

Congratulations Momma!!!

 

[Mommabrown]

Thanks ladies. It came as a surprise as I had no symptoms really. DH had been telling me for days that I was pregnant and I kept fighting with him telling him AF was on her way. When she was a no show I tested. Still slammed with shock.

 

[Navygrrl]

Congrats Mommabrown! I'm so happy for you! It seems like Emmaleigh was just born, though, LOL.

 

[Mommabrown]

Haha she was about 13 months ago! I can't imagine 2 yet!!

I am on cd5.. If the doc won't give me any meds this cycle we are going au' natural. Probably best anyhow. I have only been having o pains in my left side so far so I figure that will be my dominant side this time.
I have been taking so many pills! UGH! One thing though is that I have felt better. I have felt more even tempered. Yesterday when the nurse did all that crap, I didn't even cry.. Never even really was angry. I think it is the Zinc. I started the b6 yesterday. Maybe it's the sunshine and warm weather that has me happy??

Cupcake, I am in my second year of medical assisting and there really are no liabilities that come from tying someone's tube.. People tie their tubes all the time. There is a contract you have to sign before anyhow absolving them from any blame from anything that might arise from the procedure, PLUS the nurse just outright LIED. Not the doctor. Their was no doctor in office yesterday which I felt was a total lack of professionalism and honestly, just shows a terrible lack of judgement and makes for a bad experience all around. Nurses are not qualified to do much of anything in a doctor setting except for bp and put equipment in the room. They can't write scripts, they can't even do the ultrasounds here. They are literally glorified medical assistants.. Bp and weight please... Plus to lie makes me feel that you lack compassion and intelligence, since you never know if the person you are lying to is smarter than you are. I know it is a doctors decision, but really, I feel as long as I am within legal boundaries, my insurance covers the procedure or I have the cash for it, and it does not make you or myself break any moral or ethical code, that I should be able to ask someone I HIRE AND PAY for the services required to maintain my physical AND EMOTIONAL health. They don't walk in my skin and my doctor has been practicing 21 years.. It's been awhile since she went to school so new advancements have been made. As a person who is going to school for medical, I feel that it is completely appropriate for a person and/or doctor to better themselves in new advancements and not consider yourself too intelligent to learn or hear new ideas. Well at least in a perfect world anyhow and we all know this place is anything but..
I am over it now.. I have accepted that we will be trying with no medical help. I thought it was going to bother me but it doesn't really. I will still be calling around to see if I can get the procedure before I leave here, but if not I will be fine. I will wait until we get some real insurance and God-willing, some place that might have people in it that still know the meaning of compassion. The city is a lot different than a small town. I am used to being in a place where everyone knows everyone and you don't feel out of place, but being in a city is it's own hell. Literally there are idiots and money-hungry freaks everywhere. Everyone is for themselves and you could be burning on the side of the street and they would only be standing there snapping photos.. I would rather be a hillbilly ANYDAY than to live my life here. I know God sent us here for a reason, but I am so glad it's over soon. I wanna go home where people still care about each other and strangers say hello on the street.
I have definitely learned my lesson about a city and hating my small hometown..
I never want to be in a city again!

Didn't mean to upset you. I do know about liability waivers, but I also know plenty of people who got sued anyways. There are risks with every procedure & I would think with a fluid filled tube there is a risk of rupturing the tube, infection, etc especially with a history of PE.....Anyway, however you go about it, I do hope you find a Dr. Who listens & cares & will help you get your thb tho!

 

[cupcakestoy]

Congrats Momma!!!!!!!

Well home from my appt. Sinus & URI. :/ gave me a shot of rocephin & b12, a z-pack & flonase....I feel like poo He did make me smile as I left when he said gotta get you all better so you can get pregnant next week! I sure hope he knows something I don't Lmbo

 

[GalvanBaby]

Momma!! That is awesome news!!!

AFM, Damn, stupid Clomid Headache all night! I tried to go without anything, but it was so bad this morning that I had to give in and took 600mg Advil. I know Advil is not good for lining especially with CLomid, but I was dying there. I couldn't move without feeling like a freight train was crashing into my head. I hope that is the only CLomid headache I get this time. No other symptoms though. I am on Day 3 of CLomid so I pray tonight is a breeze!

 

[FaithHopeLove]

Yea! Such a hoppin' thread with all kinds of things going on

Congrats MommaB so happy for you

Welcome back Super & Anyhope

GL to all those doing clomid/triggers/IUI hope this thread is flooded with BFPs

Brandi, can't believe your so close to your due date!!!!! Where has the time gone hope you're feeling ready

Afm, keeping busy our upright freezer shut-off during a recent trip away (breaker tripped)..so all the fruit, veggies, freezer jam, marinara sauce etc. all in the trash SO, dd and I are busy tying to restock with wonderful items from our weekly food co-op..made 10 quarts of sauce from 20lbs of tomatoes last week it's going to take time to replenish what we had, but I'm so thankful it wasn't our meat freezer!! I'm also in spring cleaning mode getting rid of lots and lots of clutter I love, LOVE the feeling of clutter free. Don't know WHY I allow things to stack up
I'll keep checking back for more BFPs

 

[BrandiCanucks]

So I got Gabe's crib together last night and put the bedding in. It's super super cute! Just have to paint the walls blue and his room is ready. I have a serious case of nesting today. I did 11 hours of scrubbing, sorting, purging, and installing baby gates, lmao. If anyone's house needs to be nested, you know where to find me!

 

[AngienDaniel]

You didn't upset me Cupcake. Sorry if it came across like that. That's the only trouble with the written word... A person can't tell the emotion behind it. ha ha.. I was not upset(with you) though. I just feel that the doctors here are garbage and she made it plain to me this evening when she didn't bother to call me back and I had to hunt her down to have her tell me that she couldn't help me anymore. She has only given me two months of Clomid, two progesterone tests and an hcg test. I laughed my butt off. She didn't begin to help me. All this after being a patient of hers since December. She did even less than the Army doctors. I wasn't upset with you, I just can't believe the lies of these people. I guess me going on a tangent kind of felt like it was directed at you, but I promise it wasn't meant to be.. I just needed to cry about the injustice of no one being capable. I can even conceive very easily on my own but they can still supposedly do nothing. It's hard when your ttc battle is over because someone said they could help you and then after a dose of Clomid they change their story. I had already had 4 miscarriages when I had my consult with her and she assured me that she knew what to do to fix it... blah bah blah.. Now I have no doctor and another miscarriage.
Anywho, I have a new doctor appt for the 2nd of June at an infertility specialist in Olympia that takes Tricare standard. I was actually given his name and number from a very nice Nurse at an OB clinic in Tacoma. I told her my history and she said I needed this guy. Hope he is better than the rest.
I thought for a minute about taking the last Clomid pills I have this cycle, but I figure I should let the lining pills I am taking daily add up a little bit. We will still be trying this cycle, but with no pills. I will probably take the progesterone I have left after ovulation and next month my hubby will be gone so no more trying until July.
I hope everyone has a great cycle!
Your baby's crib looks awesome, Brandi!
Good luck with your IUI Cupcake and I will be checking back in for your update Fluter. I am praying for all you ladies!!

 

[cupcakestoy]

Ok Just making sure....See I'm just a hag enough to ring her bell & call her out on lack of follow up, lying staff, etc....But I'm not in your shoes, so take care of business girl! How much longer til you guys leave?


I just woke up from a Thera-flu induced nap....It was wonderful, seem to be feeling a little bit less awful, except well....My BUTT hurts!!!! Dang Rocephin is some rough stuff!!!

 

[GalvanBaby]

Brandi, Love the bed and bedding!! You can come down to Mexico and clean and organize my house if you want!! LOL

I hope you get some real help from this Dr, Angie. I know what it feels liek to have incompetent Drs who lie and never follow up.

Cupcake, how are you feeling? Other than being sick.

 

[cupcakestoy]

I'm ok, been a long time since I took Clomid. Honestly not feeling too much other than being hot & dull headaches, its not too bad so far....at least from what I can distinguish from the crud....

 

[AngienDaniel]

I don't have a problem complaining after the fact, but despite my words I am actually a pushover most of the time.. It really sucks. She gave me such hope that she could help me and she did nothing. Even all these months there was no tests... She didn't even look at my medical records.

I feel like she took my hope from me. Makes me sad.. I keep going back and forth from taking the last prescription of Clomid so I can see if extending my ovulation would help my lining, to just giving up.

 

[AngienDaniel]

Well, after fighting with myself I have decided to take the clomid because it is worth it to extend my ovulation. Growing a better egg and giving my lining more days to thicken is worth marking off my list. I might have crappy eggs. I know I have crappy lining. I know I got pregnant on 2-6 days, but growing one better egg and ovulating later is worth trying out. Plus, I have been having left side ovulation pain, and since I am pretty sure my left ovary is working this cycle, I might as well see if I can fix my trouble with extending my cycle. Marking crap off of a long list sucks really. I am taking SO many things!

Red Raspberry (capsules) about 980mg
Zinc 25mg
B6 50 mg
Calcium & Fiber supplement not sure mg
Vitamin C 150mg
Aspirin 81mg
Folic Acid 400mg
Regular Multivitamin
Pomegranate juice
Castor oil packs on my uterus area (with heating pad)
Staying active and not sitting long.

Last cycle my lining was a 6 with Clomid. Can't hurt anything but my heart to try again. One day at a time..

CD-5 and bring on the heartache..

 

[GalvanBaby]

Angie. Fx this cycle brings you your keeper!

 

[AngienDaniel]

Probably not, but at least every cycle brings me answers. Honestly I can be happy with that for now.

 

[cupcakestoy]

Good luck Angie! I think I did read that the castor oil packs are to be used during AF only somewhere... may want to check it out to be sure....

 

[Navygrrl]

I just woke up from a Thera-flu induced nap....It was wonderful, seem to be feeling a little bit less awful, except well....My BUTT hurts!!!! Dang Rocephin is some rough stuff!!!

When I was in Boot Camp, they gave us all the rocephin shots, and then made us do tons of sit-ups and other butt exercises to minimize the pain. Of course, no one wants to do any of that when ill. Actually, I never want to do that when NOT ill. I hope you feel better soon.

 

[cupcakestoy]

Thanks Navy I can tell a little difference today, maybe I'll live after all! lol
