I'm looking for some positive stories to keep my hopes up! Here is a brief history of me:
One fallopian tube removed in teens but still 2 ovaries.
TTC for 3 years before laparoscopy showed other tube was mangled.
Two failed cycles of IVF, told me would never conceive naturally.
Conceived DS naturally after giving up on having children :)
So, we haven't been taking precautions since July but have only really started going for it in the last 2 months. I know that's not a long time at all! I can already feel myself getting a bit obsessed again and feeling so down when AF arrives. DH is adamant that if it's going to happen I need to stop worrying first (I know he's right)! One of my friends has suggested that I try Clomid, since surely my tube is no longer blocked? I do wonder whether all the drugs and poking and prodding with the IVF may have done something to my insides too. At least with Clomid I would know that I was definately ovulating every month and at least would have a chance, since both ovaries would produce eggs (my other ovary does work but obviously there's no tube for the egg to travel down, so I think that some months it may ovulate and the other one is dormant, giving me less chance of conception).
I am just hoping in the land of MN that there is someone out there who has been in the same situation as me and has had a positive outcome. I don't need to be told that I should be happy with one DC. I know that already, and when we were going through treatment I would be so cross with people complaining about having difficulty conceiving DC2, and would think how lucky they were just to have DC1. I know we are so lucky, but can't help thinking that it would be so wonderful for DS to have a sibling and for us to add to our little family.
Anyway, rambling over. Does anyone think Clomid would have a positive outcome? Anyone with similar experiences? Thanks for reading :)
