Well it was Valentines Day 3 years ago that my EP was first confirmed. I had methotrexate and 9 days later required a laproscopy and laparotomy and my right Fallopian tube was removed. I was devasted that I had not only lost my baby but also lost part of my fertility. With hindsight I realise that taking my damaged tube was the best course of action and I have proved that one good tube is sufficient to make babies.
In March 2008 I gave birth to Lindsey, my gorgeous, gorgeous girl and I am due number 2 on 25th February. This is such a strange time of year for me, Valentines Day will always have a bit of a cloud over it and because I then had surgery a few days later I never really know which day to mark - I feel it kind of rumbles on for 9 days and with a very large belly at the moment I keep wondering what day number 2 will arrive so today is sad while I remember my lost angel but full of hope and excitement for the new addition to our family.
I don’t come on this site nearly as much as I used to in the early days but still appreciate the opportunity to express my feelings in a safe and secure place with other women who understand about EP and how it affects our lives forever.
I’ve rambled as usual but I’m going to light a candle now and think of my little lost angel.
