4 Ectopic, 1 miscarraige, IVF

Hi Everyone, Its been along time since I’ve been around here. It’s great to see there is still lots of support.

Does Izzie still work with the trust?

Brief history is 4 Ectopic Pregnancies, 1 miscarraige, 1 tube removed, lots of different surgery, 1 very damaged tube still remaining, but I’ll never stop trying.

we’ve started our first round of IVF and had 2 embryos transferred yesterday and now just to sit and wait :smiling_face:

Hi TanyaT,

Thank you for keeping us updated with how you are getting on. I will keep everything crossed for you with your IVF treatment.

Sending much love,

Karen x

Oh wow that puts things into perspective for me I’ve only had one ectopic.

Brave lady and the very best of luck xx

Hi Tanya T,

I’ve also had 4 ectopics and 1 miscarriage with my tube removed in Dec 2015. We are also now going down the route of IVF but only just starting the process. Please let me know how you get on. Thinking lots of positive thoughts for you.

Take care

Thank you :smiling_face:

I’ve obsessively tested every morning since we transferred 2 embryos, which you not ment to do, they where all negative until yesterday :smiling_face:

My period is not even due until the 5th.

Fingers crossed this pregnancy is in the right place :smiling_face:

It is really hard not to obsess over it, especially when you have had so many let downs before. I can’t think of anything else most of the time. All I see on TV and out and about is people’s babies and just hope and pray one of these days I will be able to join that club. I really hope it is in the right place too, keeping everything crossed for you. x

The IVFclinic are going to start monitoring my HCG levels tomorrow.

We had our first Beta HCG levels checked yesterday 8DP5DT and they were 208 which we’re happy with. Now it’s all fingers crossed to make sure tomorrow’s bloods at least double so it’s not another Ectopic Pregnancy.

Fingers definitely crossed for you. I’m just at the beginning of the journey and saw a nutritionist yesterday. Significant dietary changes to be made and weight loss to be had but I’m determined to do it. Good luck. Thinking of you x

Second Beta results in, they went from 208 to 562. We’re not out of the woods yet but it’s looking good. Back in Monday.

Hi TanyaT. Massive congratulations, I hope everything keeps going smoothly for you. You said you had one tube removed which is the same with me, I had my right tube removed after 3 ectopics in it, they took a look at my left tube in surgery but said it doesn’t look great. I’ve now been referred for ivf but the doctor said they may want to take my remaining tube, just wondering if they did that with you? Xxx

Hi Keilly

My remaining tube is also damaged and we thought they would want to remove it but they decided not to as I’ve had abdominal surgery 4 times.

Hope all goes well for you.

Thank you. Good luck with everything with you too xx

Next BETA HCG is in 3096

Thats brilliant news! What happens now, do they still check your levels till you can have an early scan?xx

Hi Keilly

Yes, they said they will check again on Wednesday and hopefully a scan soon. Although my bloods are good my mind is still not at ease .

How are you getting on?

Looks like we could be out :frowning: BETA HCG only want from 3096 to 5351 so it’s looking like we could be having another Ectopic Pregnancy. We’ve been referred from the clinic back to my gynecologist who will see us tomorrow afternoon.

Oh no, I’m praying all is good for you. You’ve had such a tough time, your really due some good luck. Try to stay positive, it’s easier said than done I know. We’ve only just been referred for ivf so it’s a long wait really as the nhs in Wales seems quite slow, not that I’m knocking them though, I’m grateful to be offered nhs funded ivf, I know some people aren’t so lucky. Well I truly am keeping everything crossed for your scan tomorrow xxx

I thought I posted an update but now I can’t see it, silly me.

We had our scan yesterday 5wks, he could see a sac but nothing else yet so we’re back in for another scan next Wednesday.

All this worrying is taking its till, I’m exhausted but fingers still crossed for 6th time lucky.

That’s good news. I know it’s so hard staying positive when all you’ve suffered is sadness. Since the 3 ectopics I’ve had I’m not great at staying positive, but I just think surely something good is bound to happen soon! Keep us informed, im still praying for you guys Xxx
