Hey, thank you so much for your reply. Yeah i know what you mean.. I am worried as all hell now, but like you say, if i give up then i wont have the chance of ever knowing if things would have turned out ok in the end. But yeah once you been thru the traumatic experience like this it is hard to get over it and move on and just hope that next time things will go ok.... I hope they do. Guess since one of my tubes was removed its bit of a less chance of it being stuck there again, 50% less then last time. And my doc said this time i will be monitored really closely and if there is a positive pregnancy test, they will be checking me on weekly bases to make sure im all aok, and if there is a problem will be picked up right away, not like last time.
How old are you, and have you got any children already?

Hi Ella,
I am 33 and living in Sydney. I have one little boy that was conceived naturally 4 yrs again. I started TTC #2 when he was just over one. My first EP occurred after 12 months of trying. My second EP was early this year and I'm now on the IVF roller-coaster.
What your doctor said is right. As long as they monitor you carefully, they can pick it up before it gets critical. Part of me felt relieved having the second damaged tube out, that way there was less chance of it happening again.
When I think back on my EP's I still well up and get emotional, more so because it did happen twice. So many people said, the chance of it happening again is so slim. Well, it did happen again and I'm slowly moving past that. It definitely gets easier, even after 2.
