TTC after ectopic/after loss/older age etc ALL WELCOME 🙂

[YellowZ]

Hello,

Would anyone like to join a thread for TTC after ectopic/miscarriage, or when facing other challenges eg age, PCOS etc? DP and I have just decided to try again for no2, and I'm going to come off the pill. It would be nice to have some buddies to share experiences and support each other 🙂

About me:

Pregnancy 1: conceived first cycle age 35, healthy pregnancy, DS born summer 2021 (now age 2)

Pregnancy 2: conceived first cycle age 37, ectopic, surgery November 2022

My plan is to eat well, exercise, cut out alcohol, and generally look after myself.

Because I got pregnant quickly both times, I'm hoping our chances are still good...no idea how only having the one fallopian tube is going to affect things 😬

I think I'll do OPKs but not sure about temping yet.

Would love to hear from others!

Congratulations @CatCaretaker 🥳

Ahh its so lovely to hear such lovely positive news. Massive congratulations @CatCaretaker and @MrsB2019x

im still not pregnant. I’ve actually stopped talking all supplements last couple of months and stopped tracking ovulation. I just needed to take a deep breath and live my life. I actually have my first appointment with the consultant at my local miscarriage clinic tomorrow so I should get all my results. It will be interesting to hear what they say.

how are you both feeling?

@Nic2908 thank you 😊. Feeling great 😃

Really sorry you're still struggling, I remember it well and it's awful. Best of luck with the miscarriage clinic. Let us know how it goes.

Congratulations @CatCaretaker and @MrsB2019x

@MrsB2019x I've often wondered how you're getting on. I think we had early scans on the same day if I remember correctly? And sadly had v different news. Glad things are going well this time round.

Sorry @Nic2908 and @Annonomous29 sending love xx

My DD is 6wks old 🙂she's very chilled out compared to my son. And chunky! Probably because I ate so much chocolate while I was pregnant...

@YellowZ
aww blesss so happy for you… hope everything went well with the birth and everything…. 😊

Hello to all those on this group who I shared worries and concerns with in the past and future readers,
Congratulations to those who’ve had their little arrivals and sending lots of love to those on their journeys to meet their miracles.
Just wanted to share that I was very lucky and have had a baby girl, turning 15 weeks old today.
We had an ectopic over Christmas 2024 and had my fallopian tube removed. Gave it a break in the New Year, tried again in March (but probably too early for ovulation as my partner was leaving to travel) and again the following month where we became pregnant with our lovely little baby girl. I didn’t want to share or tempt fate until she was here. But now she is I just want others to know who are going through ectopics and may have a fallopian tube removed, to know that there’s hope and the rough seas and become calm again.
We’re beyond happy and content and feel that this particular journey has made us so grateful and allowed us to focus with gratitude on the blessing during the challenges of the late night feeds etc! They really are flashes of little miracles.
Thinking of all on this group and those with current ectopics.
Lots of love,
S
