Hi there
My name is Sharon and I am 31. I am married and have a DS who was conceived with the help of Clomid. We had been ttc for 3 years before we sought help. I suffer from PCOS so have very irregular periods.
Last November I found out i was pregnant which was a great shock as we never expected to get pregnant on our own! Sad thing was i had been bleeding for 2 weeks so knew something wasn’t right. Two days later i had a scan and it was confirmed, nothing could be found other than a black mass by my left ovary.
Over the next month i had blood test after blood test and scan after scan - i was told that they couldn’t say for definite it was a miscarriage but that they also couldn’t rule out ectopic?? i carried on bleeding through out this time.
On 6th December i collapsed at home with my DS (who was 16mths old at the time). I was just on my way out so had my mobile and thankfuly was able to call an ambulance. I was rushed to hospital where i had emergency surgery for a ruptured ectopic pregnancy. I lost my left tube and my baby. According to the surgeon i was very lucky as i had a large amount of internal bleeding. I am presuming the black mass by my ovary was the tube slowly rupturing but i still can’t get any straight answers.
Well here i am to tell the tale and praying that my DS doesn’t remember a thing!
I am scared of putting my trust into a system that has let me down and i am scared of another ep.
We have now been ttc for 9 mths but no joy as of yet. I am hoping to start Clomid soon as i have just had a referral to the Hewitt Center.
I just hope all these feelings ease in time.
Sorry to ramble on and many thanks for listening xx
