Tubal Reversal ladies, just moved from WTT!!!

[Jenafyr4]

Thickened nuechal tube. Normal range for a non AMA pregnancy is 1.0 to 3.0, the babies is 2.9 in one measurement and 2.7 in another. But because in of AMA and my first screen blood work came back as high risk for down syndrome my chances increase. The CVS is where a portion of the placenta is tested. The doctor was able to perform it trans cervical rather than through my belly. So now we wait for results...

 

[Jenafyr4]

And congrats mammas path what you are doing is a beautiful thing

 

[cupcakestoy]

Jen- The good thing is its still in normal range! I'm 99.9% sure your LO is perfect! I've seen this whole scenario many times through the years...These tests get everybody all bent out of shape then end up being wrong! Hang in there girl!

 

[fluterby429]

Momma Brown that's exactly what I did and it cleared up in a day and a half. I knew there was a "home remedy" but I'm a little rusty so I used google.

Mommaspath congrats on the pregnancy. Such a loving gift

Brandi - poor thing. Hope buddy bandage is all that is needed

Jen - I know all of this is stressful but I'm with Cupcake and think all will be just fine with little bean baby.

AFM - Lyndon is rotten and eats every two hours like a hog. My boobs are huge and heavy! He goes back to the doctor on Thur for a weight check. I'm sure he'll be well over birth weight. Yesteday was the day I was supposed to have my c-section and he wasn't due until next Monday. It's hard to believe he's already 15 days old

 

[Jenafyr4]

Thank you Cupcake... If it was only DS we were facing I wouldnt be so worried, but because all the other US markers came back good the doctor thought it could be caused by something else. The baby clearly had a nasal bone which was confirmed and is a good sign for no DS.

The doctor didnt make me feel very reassured. I liked him, and I'm sure he has to give the good, bad and ugly. I'm not sure what he meant by saying Wednesday we will have a preliminary answer and by next Tuesday a definitive result... I had to pee soooooo bad I zoned out I just hate the waiting game

 

[Mommabrown]

Jen I know it's scary stuff but like I said I went down this same exact road. 2.9 nf scan. But keep up your spirits. Did he say he seen any abnormalities in baby?
I have very high hopes after going through this that your little beany is perfectly fine.

Cupcake I'm great! Down 70lbs with no intentions of gaining it back!

Fluter glad it cleared his eye right out! I bet he's as healthy as a box eating every 2hours. Emma was a beast that would suck on and off all stinking day long.

Mommaspath that is such an sweet and selfless thing to do! Fx for great numbers!

Brandi I have been this exact way since my c-section with Emma. It totally f'd up my body. Hope you get it all figured out.

 

[mammaspath]

So my 6dpt beta was 40. My next draw is Thursday. I kinda thought it was a low number. Who remembers their numbers ? The clinic thinks it's a great number.

 

[cupcakestoy]

Wow MOMMA! Congrats! What are you doing to lose? I did lose a 1/2 pound this week. yay. :/ Been at a plateau for almost 3 weeks now ugh....

Had my appt today for my yearly PAP, well skipped it last year, but anyways.....Excited to report I have the labs of a 20 year old! TSH 1.2, Glucose 91, cholesterol levels are all good! Not to shabby for my age & weight, which is slowly coming off :/ He did increase my Metformin to 500mg 3x a day, just because its the "normal" dose for increasing Ovarian function....It was a bitter sweet visit for me. All the nurses were so sweet. Lots of hugs & they all had wondered how we were doing after the M/C last year! Touched my heart We did discuss repeat IUIs & he still thinks it could very well work since we got a bfp on the 1st try, but is supportive of IVF for us also. He suggested injectibles again, but I really can't see spending thousands on IUIs, that give us a 10-15% chance So I guess dh wins this one....IVF it is!

 

[Jenafyr4]

My 13dpiui hcg was 58

 

[~Brandy~]

So my 6dpt beta was 40. My next draw is Thursday. I kinda thought it was a low number. Who remembers their numbers ? The clinic thinks it's a great number.

Was it a 5 day transfer? Your number is great that would be the equivalent of 11dpo

 

[fluterby429]

I think your number sounds good to me for so early.

Cuocake I wish I didn't spend thousands on IUI and saved it for IVF but I tried what Waylon wanted to try first. I can't complain, I got what we wanted in the end anyway. My doctor told me my tubes looked good during my c-section so who knows why I couldn't get pregnant.

 

[cupcakestoy]

Flutter-Mine were cauterized during the TL, I believe that damaged the cilia that was left, but of course mine aren't great lengths so who knows??? Just ready to bypass those suckers & get to were you are now....Holding a Miracle

 

[BrandiCanucks]

Not sure about numbers for iui and ivf, Mammas, but if Brandy says it is the equivilant to 11dpo, then I'd have to agree those are great! My 10dpo numbers with Asher were 16.

 

[mammaspath]

Wow really 16?! And it became a viable pregnancy ? Oh that gives me so much hope! Were you able to get a positive on your pregnancy tests when your hcg was 16?

 

[BrandiCanucks]

Yup. It was my first cycle after reversal. I had a shadow on a dollar store test at 9dpo in the evening, and the next morning, I woke up to a dream of getting a BFP. Peed on a dollar store test...nothing. Peed on an FRER just to get rid of it because I was convinced that cycle was over for me and I just wanted to get it out of the house...and there were two pink lines staring back at me. I drove out to the specialists office, got blood work and a few hours later, I got a call back that my levels were 16.

He's 9 months old today.

 

[mammaspath]

That's awesome! I'm hoping for big numbers in a couple days.
So this morning I'm having low cramping / soreness that kinda feels like it's in my vagina. Should I be worried?

 

[Jenafyr4]

Mammaspath... I experienced that too... sometimes felt like OV pains then i had a few times I felt like my cervix was being stuck with a needle. I think its stretching ligaments.

So I was reading the beginning of this thread and throughout a little because I'm having severe anxiety waiting for the perinatologist to call... its crazy the ladies who have come and gone and I wonder where they are and how they are doing. Yesterday was my son's 12th Birthday. His little party is today. Work is rather slow right now as it always is after a trial so this day has literally felt like 3

 

[anjie27]

well I am back I had another chemical pregnancy in Jan that is what my new obgyn had said and to no ttc until April to give my body time to heal fully this time so I did and now we are back to ttc i am on cd 14 and hoping this is it I talked to another dr there at the practice since they have 8 doctors there and he thinks the reason I miscarried in Jan was due to low progesterone since at 13 dpo my hcg was 48 and progesterone was 8.5 and it doubled to 125 hcg at 15 dpo then it started to drop 3 days later hcg was 75 and progesterone was 3.2 I am thinking my due to my progesterone being under 10 from the beginning doomed the pregnancy because I needed progesterone my obgyn woudnt give it to me saying the luteal phase is 10-12 weeks into pregnancy so after that when I asked for testing and saw a different obgyn at the practice I have switched he said to start taking progesterone asap when I get a bfp because other wise it can mess with implantation so I am back now finally able to ttc again

 

[MUMOF5]

Hi everyone, had my gynae appt today and the consultant won't do hsg or hycosy until I have been ttc for 6 more months 😠. I know that 8 months isn't a long time ttc by a long shot but I just wanted to know if my tubes are clear. He's agreed to do my day 2 and 21 bloods to check in ovulating, but my charts show I am so I del that's a pretty pointless task, but that's all until feb. I think he's just being an arsehole.
