Tubal Reversals #15

[Mumof8]

Dearmum,
Yes i fell first go with twins but one didnt go passed 8weeks and was removed when i had Braeh. I had lots of follies but so many of them were small. To too took extra drugs cause mine werent getting big enough quick enough so i had to take an extra shot each day for an extra week. It took about 12wks from when i started seeing the f/s to when i fell pregnant. We ended up getting 17 egg and 12 fertilized and we had two put back(much to there disgust).They grew the other 10 to blastie stage which is day 6. So we have 4 that made it that far which is an excellent result they said so there in the freezer. Mine where between 18 and 21 by the end they dont like them any bigger then 21 or there over done if you know what i mean.
So execided for you and your family, i know how tough IVF and the drugs can be on your body but believe me its so worth it.

Hi Motherof6Thanks for that,it gives me a positive out look.I must say you were so lucky for it to work the first time.Im sooo hoping it will work for me the first time because i cant stand all the needles and watching the clock 12hrs a day,but hey il keep at it for a while and if it dosnt work i think il do a TR and then let nature take place.Well got to go and pick up my kids from school have a good day

[Mumof8]

Dearmum,
I was given a pretty high chance at falling first go because i had never in the pasted had any problems falling pregnant, never had a miscarriage and i was still pretty young. One in every three fall first go so i was told.
They advised against having two put back because my chances were farely high but we went against that as we didnt want to go thru the hole IVF thing again. Two was better then one in our minds. I remember my Ivf like it was yesterday, the alarm on my mobile would go off every 12hr if i didnt do it that way i would have forgotten for sure.
I went to a BBQ one day with my drugs on ice in my drink cooler, another time in the middle of a carpark after lunch with a girl friend. Things we do hey.
Here's you get some good eggs and you get to freeze some just incase. That way you dont have to go thru a hole cycle again.

[dearmum]

Thanks Motherof6Yeh any advise at this stage for me is greatly appreciated.Yeh my Doc told me i have a 30% chance for it to work,hmm so i have 70% chance it wont work great figuresBefore i had my TL i was so fertile and same as you had no miscarriges,but i guess my age makes things different.I must say i find you are very lucky to have 6 kiddies at your age,if i was to turn the clock back i would love to have as many as the Duggers on foxel she has 17 and they all seem such a lovely family,i find most large families seem very close when they grow up.You know i feel miserable when i think i allowed my Doc to do a TL on me.Well i must stay positive.Do you think you will have more kiddies?
Well take care

[Mumof8]

Oh ive watched all the Dugger shows and there on drugs seriously,17 kids there up to thats madness.
I love all my kids so much but im at 6 now and there is just not enough time in the day and i dont have enough hands to give them all the love and attention they all want and need.
In saying that i do have 4 frozen Blasties. They mess with my head abit because i know there there and i dont want to give them away but i dont want to put them down the drain either. So it really plays with my emotions on what to do with them. So to answer your question im so happy with what i have and i always said i would have anymore kids once i was 30 but those 4 little things make me very uneasy so i just dont know. If they werent there i wouldnt care to have anymore because im content. Maybe i'll just leave them where they are and forget about them.
I would have thought your chances were higher then that at 34 with no pasted history, more like 40 to 60% i think. I would check on that one

[dearmum]

Hi Motherof6back again!i just had my egg collection today they got 8 out of me so im hoping at least 2 are good enough,yeh im a bit sore.I know what you mean about having frosties there waiting for you,i think i would feel the same,but knowing me atm i would want them all.Did i tell you i asked my doc about having 2 put back in and the answer was a big no,i feel its unfair as its my body i should have the last say
By the way your baby looks so cute!
Well got to rush off,but il let you know how it all turns out ok can you please pray for me that it works.Thanks

[onemore]

Hi ladies, sorry I hav`nt been in for a while.. how are you all ?
Em it must be tough knowing you have 4 maybe`s just sitting there waiting !! You know if you had 10 you`d prob get a mini bus
dearmum great to hear your moving along on your journeythat it all turns out for you guys, its about time we had some more BFP`s in here..
I`ve been charting this cycle so am a bit consumed with that atm, Im 8dpo and have been having cramps and sore bb for about the last 4 or 5, trying not to get my hopes up but am this month might be a good one.. I really wanted to be utd before my would have been due date which is in about 5 weeks, not because I want to replace my little angel but just to take my mind off that particular time..
Better head off to bed so will catch up soon
Take care

Hello all - this is my first time on this site. I have got 3 kiddies 2 boys 9 and 7 and a girl 6. My tubes were clamped 5 years ago - I was only 25 - and I now want a baby. (Well, I have done for a couple of years now). I am scared that I wont be able to reverse it and wont have a chance to have any more babies..

[Mumof8]

Mummy25..oh i cant wait for the next update how execiting. Breah is doing pretty good.
There is a but tho, she just doesnt seem to want to sleep unless im holding her and its doing my head in like seriously. Also i need to make some friends around here cause im really going crazy just doing all the mum stuff and having no adult company and adult convo. I had a fight with DF saying how hard it is and i really look forward to the weekends cause hes home and we go to the boys footy. But he doesnt get it I tried to tell him that he has a life outside of this house and can get away but i cant, these four walls are my life. God i can winge!! Bloody women.

Hi Sharmane and welcome,
Like most of us in here we are all wanting a baby and have had or are looking into getting a TR or doing IVF. Good luck on your journey and im looking forward to getting to know you and your family more. We are all pretty cool chicks in here(well i think we are)and we all give each other the help and support your looking for.

Ray where are you.............................

[onemore]

Welcome Charmane, hope your journey isnt too long..
You can have it reversed and it does work so if it is really what you want go for it.
IVF is also another option to think about..

All the best and I look forward to chatting with you some more

Em, sorry your having a hard time... sounds like you need a baby sitter and head out for the day for some "you" time, go out for dinner, catch a movie, get your hair done, whatever you feel like... hope you feel better soon.

Thanks for the congrats mummy25, sounds like you are almost set for a new addition to your family !!! keep working on him all the best.

Karen thankyou for the well wishes, how are you doing ?

Think its about time I hit the sack,
goodnight

[sharmane]

Hey guys - thankyou for welcoming me into your forum. I went to the doctor today to see about TR - I got a referral - rang them - and they said it will cost 4000 - 6000 dollars to get it done as it isnt covered by medicare or private cover now.Argh..
So they have booked me in for IVF on the 31st July.
I dont know the first thing about IVF - any helpers??

[dearmum]

Hi Sharmaneyay another lady!
I can tell you all about IVF as if just been through it and i got my
Imust say everyone is different about the meds they give you but usally if its your first time like me they will give you the standard dose of things.I had to spray my nose for about 4 weeks and then inject my stomach for 1 week but it was all a breeze.If you have any questions i dont mind talking about it all.
Im sure you will have sucess with it as Motherof6 and i gave it one try and we both fell pregnant the first time.Well keep us posted on when you start ect.

Hi Ladies im still over the moon about being pregnant,but gosh my hormones are all over the place because im so p###d off all the timeyeh the kids can say something wrong atm.I dont remember being like this last time.
Hi Onemore how are you feeling?any m/s?
Hi Motherof6 It can get you down when your stuck in the house all the time,try and get out more,what i plan to do once i have bubs is go to the gym and maybe put bubs in care for a hour.
Well ladies i must go and grab the kids from school.Talk again

[sharmane]

ouch - a needle in the belly for a week!

Hi Mrs M,
I used to live in Queensland but i had my reversal in Sydney as i couldnt find anyone up there. I paid $4000 for mine but another girl on here that went to the same clinic paid $8000 nfrom memory and you get nothing back.
I didnt get pregnant after mine after waiting 13months so i did IVF in Sydney and fell first go and it was a hell of alot cheaper then the reversal anyway and it didnt come with the risks of what can happen after you have your reversal.
Goodluck on your journey and hope to get to know you better over time

[Mrs_M]

Hi Ladies.....gees i hate my internet.....can hardly get on anymore and when i do i have to wait a million years for it to load....A lot of new faces in here since i have been gone.....Welcome Mrs M......good luck on your journey to having a reversal.....I am also in Qld. I'm not goign to have a reversal, because up here there really isn't place to do and if there is the price is unreal. I'm going IVF and heading down to Westmead where mumof6 had hers. I'm not however doing it straight away, because we are goign to start building a new house soon......well i hope we are......damn developer is being a $#@% head and demanding we do something about our contract/finance even though it says in our contract that we have to sell our house first before we proceed any further, otherwise he is goign to cancel our contract and give our block of land to someone else.......i would love to start the IVF now to get it over and done with, but dh wants me to wait.....i can also see his side of things.....so looks like i have to wait......i will try and get in more internet allowing.....cheers kiya

[onemore]

Hi girls,
welcome Mrs M, wishing you all the best for your IVF journey..

Kiya glad your back shame about the internet being a pain and hope your house plans etc come together soon.

Dearmum yea I`m excited about the u/s but I`m also scared to death because I lost a baby last year and found out at a 9 week scan.. I`m trying to stay positive but that thought is always in the back of my mind. I`m still getting nausea and yesterday morning I was sick, so even though I had vomiting it puts my mind at ease a little.
I will be 7 weeks on Wed and thats when I go for my first scan and if all is well I go back for another at 10 weeks so we get that.

Luv I could`nt get in for the scan till next week because they were fully booked and I figured there would be no question at 7 weeks so I would just have to wait !!! only a few days left now.

Gota go, washing to put on the line and all that other boring stuff.
Have a good weekend and take care
