Tubal Reversals #12

Hey girls, how are we all tday?
Fram- its a huge decision to make, I know my road has been a tough one but I would do it again..
but as you know nothing is for sure. I dont know much about clomid, but they are used to increase egg stimulation arnt they ? Not trying to sway your choice but the most likely cause for reversal not to work is scar tissue blocking the tubes, therfore increasing fertility wont make any difference if the tubes are blocked because nothing can get past. hope this helps you a bit, I guess with IVF at least you know things are on the way and prey it works quickly. With a bit of luck you would be like Em and only have to do one cycle.( had a bit of a laugh about the bridezilla)
Em- Im sorry your not having a happy holiday break, parents can be a pain cant they, especialy when they try to take over and run the place. I am very lucky in that respect, both sets of family are really easy to get on with. A couple of years ago all my family came over for Christmas (there were 19, not counting us) and they all stayed at our place, a couple of them slept out in tents but it was a great get together. I hope they are helping you out a bit !! Hang in there.
Hope everyone else is doing well..

hi girls,
i have a question.
Has anyone heard of the Blackmores conception tablets?
If so, do you reckon they would work if doing ivf?
I'm thinking i need all the help i can get, to hopefully fall pregnant the first time.

How is everybody?

ray:D

Hi Ray my IVF clinic said that I had to take them before i started.I got the gold one.
Fram i tried the clomid over 4 cycles and nothing. I guess its like Onemore said about
the tubes being badly damaged all clomid does is make more eggs and make thing regular

Hi Ladies, I'm having the crapiest of days. DH has been in court for 2 days because of a DIU, totally all my fault, but the darn solicitor that we were paying for couldn't even do his job right. It took 2 days in court for the judge to not even ask DH anything and the solicitor say "give him this". Then as quick as you like he gave him a bill. Talk about service. Now all i want to do is go home (Brisbane), but if i do that we can't afford to buy a house back there because they start from $450,000+. We own our place out here in whoop whoop, but even if we sell it, we still won't have enough after paying everything off. I have been in tears in my wine glass all afternoon, and just wish i could turn back time. Sorry for the venting girls. Cheers kiya

Hi Everyone,
Thank you all so so much for your words of wisdom and support. I can't tell you what it means to me.
My sister gave me her Clomid because she really can't have anymore. Of course there would be no point taking them unless I have the reversal. The part that scares me the most is, if i have the op and then it doesn't work, i will be shattered especially thinking about how much it will cost.
And for some reason, i can't help feeling that ivf will work. It maybe wishful thinking, i don't really know, maybe it is Em and her story. Maybe i have gotten strength and hope from her and think to myself that if it can work for her first go, why not me too. (1 cycle is heaps cheaper than the reversal too).
So much to think about, so much to consider......
Anyway, take care ladies, hope you all stay well and happy.
Just remember, this time next week, school's back......

framine, the right choice will come to you and it will be the perfect choice. I believe you will be blessed with a new little miracle soon. Whether be by a reversal or by IVF, either way you wills till be having that baby. I know it is so encouraging with Em's story to do the IVF, and if it wasn't for her, i would have given up a long time ago. I know we also will be blessed with a new little miracle, but at the same time i also know that it will happen when the time is right :-) Good luck with your journey on having a new baby :-) Cheers kiya

hi em,
the gold is that a blackmore one?

ray:D:D

Yeah Ray it was.
Gee you girls make me want to cry sometime
everything is just so touching at the moment.
Bloody pregnancy

em,
how are you going with your parents?
are you taking it easy?

Hi Girls, Well i did some retail therapy to get over my past few days. Target had a no deposit layby on their baby stuff, so i put 2 laybys on. Now i am pretty much set for a new baby. All i have to get is the cot and maybe one of those fisher price travel systems for the times when i go shopping and don't want to take the bertini. I have so many clothes and things for both a girl or a boy that i am running out of storage places for it all. Now all i have to do is start the baby makign process. Cheers kiya

Ray...Taking it easy are you SERIOUS! :lol: everything but!
Kiya..when all else fales go shopping it works wonders

Em, it is great to be able to go into say like target or something and when you go tot he baby section to go just ga-ga over it all. DH now shakes his head when i walk in the house with yet again another shopping bag full of baby stuff. Cheers kiya

Men just dont get it do they!

Hi girls I just wanted to pop in as I just read that Maz's baby is unwell.
He has been having seizures lasting 3 minutes all last night.
The hospital they went to decided to send him to Melboure hospital.
They said something about a Brain infection.
Thinking of your little man and your family in this time of need Maz.
Take care and sending lots of get well vibes

It a blood clot

OMG!!! Maz....we are keeping your little man in our thoughts. Hope all goes well. Kiya

They are going to do some coil thing rather then full
on surgery

thats the safest way to go i think. there is nothing like having a child go through anything to do with their brain.....i panic all the time with james because of his brain tumor....they are just letting him be himself and if and when it does change then they will do something about it and only then. thanks em for keeping us upto date kiya

I read now that the doctors have now told Maz that he has Group B Strep.
God i wish they would test mums when there pregnant to see if they have it.
It normally doesnt matter unless your having a vag birth but that must be wrong.
I am a carrier of it like alot of women but most dont know cause they dont check.
I dont know why when its just a normal swap test.
And i was told it only affects the baby never the mother and only if its a vag birth.

YIKES!!! i totally agree with you Em. When i was preg with James i was admitted to hospital but didn't know why and it took DH and his mate yelling at the dr's & nurses to tell me why i was there. Apparently i had rubella, but they waited until my next ante-natal appt to tell me that i had a full 4 weeks later...dah how stupid was that...kiya

maz, i am so sorry. I will pray for you and your family. I am thinking about you..
em, hey.. have checked in for a while. been waiting for af to arrive after all that but still nothing. it sux cause i am waiting to have a date to give the hospital for my hsg. hows you belly growing
kiya so happy that your are starting your ivf.. i was thinking to head down that track too.. but i have to wait some time before that can happen... if i do though, i am thinking to go through that clinic too. i can't wait to hear your journey...

Gee Luv i hope it comes soon how long has it been?
Its getting big,not much sleep these days and i have
heart burn to DIE for Grrr! I get it everyday at the same time nearly.
I keep getting a stitch down on my pubic line sometimes but mosly in my groin.
Never had it before tho.

hi em,
we have a change of plan. We are now going through royal women's hospital which is costing $2400 which is a lot cheaper then $5800.
Because we used some of the savings ,i had to start to put it back and it was getting hard because lee leaves in 7 weeks so money was going to be tight.
I'm peeved with myself because i didn't think of royal women's in the first place, I could already be pregnant.
Only problem lee has never got himself off before and is not planning to start, so i have to help yeah for me and i have never needed to do it either so we are practicing ( if little boys can do it, i can:lol:).
So hopefully be pregnant in march:crossfingers:, due date 25th December

How is everyone else? all well i hope.

ray

Ahh hahaha :Lol: welcome to the world of being very open
and trying anything once hehe.
Thats really awesome news Ray and i cant wait for someone else to be
pregnant cause im getting lonely hear by myself

Hi Ladies, Well today has been the saddest day in our house. We got a ph call at 6am this morning from DH mum, saying that his grandfather passed away this morning. He was an awesome man, and lived life to the fullest. He idolised my 2 girls especially my 12yr dd, as dh's grandmother never got to see her when she was weeks old and passed away just weeks later. DH when he met her for the first time when she was 2mths old, couldn't put her down and cried so hard. The when dd #2 came along he did it again, because she had red hair and dh grandmother also had red hair when she was younger. The top it all off as i was driving back from Brisbane on the hway, ds called to tell me our 3 week old kitten passed away. So today has been filled with such sadness and my poor girls have not stopped crying all day & nite. it is now definitely a glass of wine time. Kiya

Hi Ladies, tomorrow we got to DH's grandfathers funeral only to be told that 2hours ago DH's uncle passed away from a massive heart attack. His poor mum & dad are so devasted so is my DH. So please keep our family in your thoughts over the next few days as we deal with so much heartache. Kiya

omg kiya i'm so sorry to hear that! my thoughts are with your family at this time how sad.

kiya, i'm so sorry for your families lost

ray

Kiya Im sorry yous are having a rough time.
Thinking of you in this time of need

Kiya Im sorry yous are having a rough time.

Thank-you girls. It has been a sad day but at the same time it was good. It was full of family and hearing about how much mischief grand-dad got up to when he was younger was so funny. We now have another funeral to go to on Thursday for the Uncle. To much sadness in 2 days is very hard. Then it took 1.5 hours to get home from the RAAF base because all the roads were flooded over and by tonite the nearby suburb of Rosewood is going to be under water and under alert. Kiya

Thanks Em...Like i said to DH, it can only makes us stronger after all of this and give us the inner strength when we do our IVF. Kiya

Kiya, so sorry to hear of your sad times.. hope your family is doing ok. Its good that you can go and remember the good times and celebrate the life of your DH grandfather. I hope I dont offend you but maybe where one life ends another will begin!! prehaps that is the greater plan, who knows...
Take care
How is everyone else ?
Any update on Maz and her little boy ?

Time for a new thread ladies

love
