    Sorry I meant the infection can cause endo, so it is a possibility. They originally wanted to monitor me with fortnightly scans but I see the OB in 2 weeks and really think I would prefer the stitch.

    Thanks for the clarification. Will definitely chat to him about it. Talk to your OB about your fears and getting a stitch. From my experience, OBs don't like performing the procedure because of the small risk of infection. I'm more willing to take that risk rather than the consequences of not having it. Don't want to scare you but just want you to be aware that my OB put me on a week of bedrest for a wait and see approach and that week was detrimental for me. I went from my cervix slightly starting to shorten to 4cm dilated in 7 days. Sorry I really don't want to scare you but I have found IC is such a hard condition to diagnose as there are so many variables and I've heard most OBs won't put a stitch in unless you have suffered from 2 or more late losses - and we just can't have that!

    I feel like we have hijacked this thread for our own! I have been through the should I, shouldn't I, what if, scenarios and have pretty much come to the conclusion I will have the stitch, just have to confirm it with the OB who thankfully I just spoke with and he plucked an appt out of thin air for Thurs, after the clinic telling me I couldn't get in until the 9th Dec blah blah blah. Nothing like going straight to the top! I know what you mean about no stitch until 2 losses, well I am not prepared to lose another baby just to satisfy their criteria!

    I know! Sorry ladies. Fantastic that he will see you so soon - you go girl! Can't wait to hear the update. Do you mind me asking what state you're from? I ask because I'm always on the lookout for an OB that knows about IC.

    Can I have one more vent today please! I just called the clinic to ask if I could go in tomorrow for a preg BT as they said if I didn't get AF 10 days after my 21 day P4 test that I should go in. Well, today is 10 days after but she said "oh no, it's way too early to test now, wait a few more days at least". Does this make sense? Have left a message for my FS to clarify as he said "if you don't get your period on day 28 you are pregnant. There is no such thing as a late period on Clomid". I want to scream!

    For someone who was scared to join this thread I sure have alot talking to do don't I???

    I'm in Sydney Helen, guess Brisbane is a little far to travel even for a great OB!
