Well, I'm 29 Years old and have been married to my wonderfully patient and loving husband for 2 1/2 years. We started TTC about 2 years ago when this past October we decided there might be something wrong with one of us. I went to my OB/GYN in October and she did the basic infertility work-up on me and my husband. Everything seemed to be okay but she wanted to put me on clomid b/c she didn't think I was ovulating. In the meantime we weren't able to do the HSG test that month due to the holidays so that was postponed until december/early January. So I did my first cycle of Clomid in early December and had all the symptoms of pregnancy only to get several BFN's. So I started my second cycle of Clomid but had my HSG(not fun at all!!!) Test done only to find that BOTH of my Fallopian tubes were blocked. :( I have never felt so distraught over something in my entire life! My doctor immediatley scheduled me for a laparscopy for two weeks later. In that two weeks I did nothing but research tubal factor infertility and the many causes for it. I had the hardest time dealing with the unknown and the why's. I tried to remain optimistic during the two week wait till surgery. (my husband was very helpful during this waiting period.)At my pre-opp Appt. my doctor made it very clear to me that the chances of her being able to do anything were extremely minimal and that our best bet was IVF. I was so crushed when I heard this,But still knowing that my husband and I had atleast one other option when some couples are out of options. I had my surgery on January 29, 2008 and my doctor found that I had a cyst that had burst and formed a blood clot in one tube and that I had a kink in my other tube!!! How crazy is that! She said she had never seen anything like it before(the kinked one!) She was able, after alot of persistence during surgery, to get both of my tunes unblocked!!!!! I have never been so relieved in my life!!! She was just as suprised as my husband and I were! She told us that the next 2-3 months were our best bets for conceiving a child!!! So try we will!!!! I know that it was mostly prayers that helped us!!! Thank you for watching over us Lord! UPDATE 4/25/08 Well my husband and I tried for the last three months naturally with no luck :( I am just starting my fourth cycle since my surgery and this month I am going to start Clomid. I took Clomid twice but that was before I found out about the tubal blockage. So I am really praying that this will be the month!!!!

Hey Melissa, just wanted to see how things are going????  I had the lap done 2 weeks ago.  I was pretty bad - 80% covered inside, they were unable to remove it all b/c of our fertility issues :( so we will need assistance in getting pregno :(  The dr's told Dan after we are done having the babies they are recommending me having a hysterectomy.  All said and done, I have been on a nice break, I have the dr. on Friday so we will see what he says.  How are you doing??  Any good news??  You are in my thoughts!!  Stay in touch

Hello Melissa.  I read your page about your surgery and what not.  I see that all that has been taken care of and I see that you got a positive OPK.  My question is... Where's the updates since??? Have you got a BFP??  Hehe.  I hope so, after overcoming what you have you deserve to be a mommy.  I look forward to an update.  Will stop by later

Hi Melissa, just wanted to stop by and say hi!!! How are things going??  I read your last blog that you had the lap surgery done??  HOw was it??  And what are you doing now??  I am suppose to go in for it the end of the month for endo, the dr. is pretty convinced that is why i'm not getting pregno b/c every month has been a battle of really bad PAIN!!!  Stay in touch and I hope all is going well with you!!!!

Hi, How are you doing?  Well, I didn't get it for Valentine's Day b/c FF moved my O'day. I have at least four more days before testing.  This wait is killing me. I just want this to be my month.  Praying for you.  Take care.

Almost forgot if you decide to visit the site look for Jubilant35's pregnancy blog.  It's also for ttc'ers.  I'm also on BabyCenter.com under Praying for a February 2008 Baby under the name AlreadyBlessed.  I'm here to chat if you desire to or just to listen.  I'm just an email away.  Take care.

Hey there!

 How are you?  Thank you so much for your comment.  I read your about me and I knw how frustrating and aggravating ttc can be.  I've been there and I currently there again. I would like for you to go to my page at www.i-am-pregnant.comto read my story and how God blessed through it all.  I will keep you and hubby in my prayers.  I know that you've probably heard this before but it's coming from someone who knows what it's really like to want something so bad, you'd do anything and everything possible to get it....It will happen for you,  I believe it.  I've held to my secret method of ttc...Ask, Believe and Receive.  No matter what believe that God can and that he will in his timing.  And know that his timing is always perfect.  It's truly a focus and trust factor with God.  Keep your focus on him and don't put ttc before him in anyway and just trust that he has heard you and that he will in his time answer your prayers.  Keep in touch.  Big virtual hugs!
