hahaha yeah...lets blame it all on the roids....hahahahahaha.
Operation was easier than I thought.....I had the open one which means they cut me like a c-section. I was in the hospital for 3 days and it took me about 6 weeks before I could work out again. in between all of that I got tired easily but really had no pain to speak of. The worse part believe it or not is the gas the surgery causes. just a note of advice, be sure you have a dr you have confidence in....someone who has done this surgery before.....also ask them if they think you will need a blood transfusion (which you probably wont) but you should maybe bank your own prior to the surgery just in case. Most women dont need a transfusion BUT it is a slight possibility. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Hi ladies, how are you all?
Quick update, on friday (12 Nov) I had my dr's appointment and so far it sounds like everything is ok with my roid. woohoo The dr checked my tummy and as I said I didn't have any pain or discomfort she thinks we'll leave my roid alone. However, she was going to get me booked into have an ultrasound to see how big or small my roid is at the moment and take it from there. I'm just waiting for the appointment to come through now.
The dr I saw said she is happy to leave it alone unless I have any pain or discomfort which is great news.
However, she is strongly suggesting I have the Mirena Coil fitted which will last for 5 years. I know already I don't want this as we want to try and have baby #2 close together.
So once I have this ultrasound I'll know more and will be able to tell you more then. eeeek.

Eoz you poor thing!! Any update?
TTC I'm glad your surgery went well!
Lane, I can't feel mine any more...but I haven't really been fishing around too much. My doctor could still feel it and he said it shrunk down a lot. I still think it's the cause of my bloating though. Once I lose the last 10 pounds I'll be able to know for sure if I'm still bloated.

Hi ladies, how are you all?
I had my final dr's appointment today after having a scan last time I went and the dr said he's happy with everything and to leave my roidy alone, unless I have any pain or discomfort that doesn't go away or any bleeding in between periods.
I'm over the moon. I can't believe how lucky I've been through my pregnancy and up to now with this flipping thing inside me and not having any problems, unlike some of you lovely ladies here
.
All I can hope now is that it doesn't decide to cause me any problems and "doesn't" (haha) flare up again when I get pregnant again.
Zoe, I'm so sorry you had to have a hysterectomy. I really hope your getting better now from your op!

hi ladies - just checking in.
well it has been 6 months since my fibroid removal....I am in my 4th cycle of ttc....I will know in a few days if I got pg.....I had my 6 month follow up a few weeks ago and he said my uterus was measuring nice a small and doesnt see any reason why I am not getting pg. Well if I am not pg in a the next few months he will put me on clomid and if that doesnt work then off to a fs....i really hope it works as we dont have the funds for a fs. He did se a very small 7 mm fibroid which he thinks was there and they left in b/c itw as to small.....oh I hope that doesnt grow.
Anyway, I hope everyone is doing ok.

Hi Lauren, I'm doing really well thanks. I had my 20 week scan on 27th May and it looks like we're having another little girl. So far I've had a great pregnancy, barely any morning sickness which was so strange as when I was pregnant with Isabelle I was so poorly with it.
Congrats on starting to ttc at the end of summer. It's scary, but so exciting ( as you already know).
I'm starting to stock up on things for bump and thinking about getting all of my newborn and 0-3 month clothes down to get ready to get washed and put away and organised. eeeek.
How are you doing anyway? and how's everyone else doing?
