Thank you ladies, it is a god send to be able to communicate with women that are having the same problems. I can talk to GF's but none of them has had their tubes tied so don't really understand the problem.

Karend I wish you all the best in your reversal, please keep us informed of how it all goes. I will definitely be looking into getting mine done sometime in the future, but for now because we desperately want to add to our family we have decided to pursue ivf.

Astnatlaur I don't think the doctor I saw liked the fact that I had armed myself with knowledge. DH reckons that he was probably p****d that I knew more than he did. It's just as well that technology is as good as it is for without it I would of been kept in the dark and felt like I was going insane.
