Thanks Jennifer! My appointment with my RE is Oct. 6 so until then it's just a waiting game. I'll let you know how it goes. Thanks for the encouraging words!

Hello everyone,
I'm pretty new to this site. I've searched around and I've had a hard time finding someone with my same problems so I thought I would share my storey. I hope it helps someone else.
My DH Jeremy, and I have been TTC for about 3 years now. In '06 I got a BFP on a test and went to the doc. He did an US and there was no baby, so it was a false positive. That is not fun. Then the doc started me on Clomid (everyone in my family has had to take Clomid to get pregnant)and on my second round I got pregnant. One week after my BFP I had and ectopic pregnancy, and lost my right tube. This all happened 2 weeks after my sister had her little boy at 28 weeks. He weighed 2.7 lbs, so there was lots of drama and worry going on. He is 21 months old now and is doing great BTW.
We took some time off and I changed doctors. After several months of trying again my doctor decided to do a laperoscopy and a dye test to check my left tube. This surgery was on 8/12/08 and she said my left tube is blocked as well. She told me that now IVF is my only option, so I guess now that's where we are headed. I go 8/27 to my follow up appointment. I guess she will refer my to a RE at that time. She did say that my DH is in great shape and that my ovaries and uterus looked excellent. Our only problem was my tubes. I'm very anxious to get to her appointment so I can then make one with the RE. Any information or advise anyone has will be greatly appreciated.
I know God has a plan, and is completely in control. My faith in that really gets me through. Best wishes to all of you TTC. Lots of baby dust. I look forward to reading all of your news.

No problem trust me ive been ttc for 3 years and i havent had too much bad news (doesnt make it any easier tho) and lets pray i never will get bad news, so far its just an ovulation and a clomid thing, and hopefully ill get pregnant very soon! stay positive, thats what I'm doing. Im expecting it to work right away and I know that it will =) We all need encouragement its what keeps us going. The rest of the world doesnt understand how we feel, they think they do but they don't. only ppl on this site truly get what we go through... lol good luck!!
Thanks Haley. I'm just trying not to think about it. I'm looking at it as a month off.
I just read your story. When are you going to take a preg. test? I really hope it happens for you this round. If it doesn't you should try fertilityfriend.com. It can help you track everything, but let's not get ahead of ourselves. Hopefully it worked this month. Keep us posted and lots of baby dust!!
