TTC following an ectopic pregnancy

will will cross everything for you x

Had some more spotting today. I'm just now wondering if it's my period!!! And the PCOS is kicking in, becase that's what happened before, spotting several days beforehand. No more pain. thanks for your mess. Genidef

any news?

Hi guys. Sorry, I was in a state the other night. They called me in for an internal scan - I haven't had bloods done yet. It's sooo early it's embarrassing...and get this I haven't had a postiive test yet, it's that early. I did tell the doctor this when I rang, but she said come in anyway. I'm glad - last time it was game over at 5.5 weeks and I had to have my tube removed! It was already too late to save it...so I decided I had to risk looking like an idiot and be sure. The thing is of course they can't see anything, so it looks like it's bloods next week. We went back and forth but I decided I was prepared to give it more time!! I really don't know what to do, but it looks like I'm leaving it for a bit. Ugh

hi all, im back. Gendief, depending on the sonographers abilities you can usually make out a sac from about 5w. however, if you think you are pregnant you should see your doc and explain that you have a history of ep and want a blood test done ASAP. im sure it will be fine, but best to make sure.

well, we are in new house, i love my new course and things seem to be good. then my cousin gave birth last night. it just doesnt seem fair! i want another baby, no, actually i want my babies back.

Hello, I'm back from my holiday and feeling loads better. I got my 1st af 30 days after the op and everything seemed normal so I've decided to get started with the ttc again (currently CD11). I'm not sure how much my fertility has been affected though. My ep was in my left tube, but although I didn't lose the tube I don't know how damaged it is. Also I was told that I've got adhesions on the right tube. I've no idea whether that will stop that tube from functioning. So I'm actually looking forward to my follow up appt next month so that I can find out a bit more what's going on.

cedar - sorry to hear about your bfn. Enjoy your break.

lissie - hope the house move is going ok and isn't too stressful.

hts/genidef - hope you're ok. I thought you should see something by 5 weeks, but I think it also depends on the hcg levels.

sorry that's me - Genidef.

Ladies - help urgently. Unfortunately I've named changed and can't change back, will need to contact MN people.

There is a possibility I'm pregnant - but only a very couple of weeks. Had pain today on my remaining tube side - the left side. And a tiny bit of spotting.

Please, does anyone know how early you can see something on a transvaginal scan???

Hi everyone just poping in to say hi. we had a great holiday and Ia m feeling a lot better. Hope your all doing ok. I will pop back in a couple of weeks. Lissie a have emailed you.

we are NAC (not avoiding conception) but i start a holistic therapy course on tues (same day that we move house )
gendief, any news about moving round here?

Hi Lissie, thx for asking, we're ok this end. No nearer on deciding whether to ttc again or not atm. We're just enjoying things as they are for a bit. We've just been away for the week and it's been so much fun, though exhausting! Ds starts school in 2 weeks (reception) so I'm just concentrating on that atm.

How are you? Any nearer on decisions your end?

Hi all
Cedar - I understand about taking a break - We'll be thinking about you and good luck with the rest.

I'm afraid I'm a bit gloomy tonight, another friend is pregnant and guess what - bizarre pains in the tubeless side all day. Psycosomatic (sp?) or what?

hi 99rb, havent seen you for ages, how are you?

doh, didn't realised they changed the way they do links it's been that long!!

It should have been {{{hugs}}}

Hi cedar, so sorry to hear your news. I hope you have a restful time away. hugs

Hi Lissie, hope you are ok. Haven't had a chance to read the thread (first time on MN all month I think!).

oh cedar, im so sorry. dont let them fob you off but i agree that a ttc break will be a good thing, i will miss you tho. my email is on my profile, im also on facebook (west mids network) please stay in touch. x

thanks Luby, I just spoke to the clinic. I got very angry as they tried to convince me it was nothing to do with the infection and I am not having it I am not being fobbed of after paying £4000 to be given an infection. But I am not going to let it rule my life this time.

((((((Cedar)))))) So sorry you didn't get your BFP.I really was hoping this was it for you. You sound like you are at peace with not actively TTC. As you say it can be a huge relief not date watching all the time.

A break from Mumsnet may also be a good idea. I know I needed a break from it a few months ago as it can make you obsess more.You know we will all be here for you if and when you do decide to come back.

Hope you have a lovely time away with DD and that you and DH can relax. Wishing you lots of luck for the future.

xx

I am afraid it wasn't good news bfn Not feeling to bad It think after 3 years me and dh have both had enough. So we have decided to give ttc a break. I will not use contraception but will not actively try. I feel quite liberated no more date watching etc. We are taking dd away on holiday next week before she starts school. So I am going to concentrate on her and dh at the moment. I think I am also going to give mumnet a break for a while I think it just makes me obsess more. Good Luck everyone.

hi SGK and luby,

cedar, i have everything firmly crossed for you x

Hi all, just popping back in, how is everyone?? Hope you are well.

Thanks Lubyloo

Hi Cedar,

Just wanted to let you know I am thinking about you and keeping my fingers firmly crossed for a BFP for you tomorrow.

I think we will be taking a break awell if this ivf doesnt work. I am so worried about tomorrow I dont feel pg.
