Hello ladies,
I am afraid technically I am leaving the lovely world of IVF behind me, I shall not be returning to it, either way.. I have a new master plan cooking...which for me being an old bird , may have a slightly higher chance of sucess.
I had a telephone consultation last night with Mr Pickles from the BMI Heathcare hosp in Nottingham, He does Tubal repairs in ladies like me.. I have a little tweeking to do on the money, they have a 6mth interest free hosp plan to pay for op, which will buy me a little time, and this would be the totally last money we will ever be forking out for baby making.. I am scheduled to have my op on monday 19th november in less than 5 weeks!!! We have , a tiny bit of oh childcare/work clash issues for one night, and I will stay in two nights and then have to have hubby and Devon drive up there after school run and then collect and drive me home , not enougth hours in day to get back before kids, so not sure, surgeon was overly happy with me getting taxi and then train home...so not sure how at mo, but but other those issues, it's all looking positive at mo...
Guess what this surgeon cuts into your tummy reopening the c-section scar and then through the tummy muscles etc layers , but not the Uterus, he doesn't even touch it!! Amazing news for me, as usa clinic and all the others I looked at before inc uk consultant local I saw who refered me for ivf all cut the uterus too.. So if he was able to reconnect either or both tubes, (depending on amount missing, then if I was lucky enougth to fall preg, then I would not have to worry much more than anyone being on their 5 baby after 4 sections, as my uterus has been healed now 21 mths... I couldn't believe it when I found that bit out... That's a huge risk weight off my mind..
Do you know, I will do this, it will stuff us more financially than I have already, it's slightly less than one cycle of ivf, but gives endless chances, esp with mc rate higher at my age.... It really may not work, but it will almost right a wrong for me, regardless of the outcome. I can say to my conscience, that I fully tried everything to sort out my stupid mess, and then what will be , will be, either result... and if it fails to get me my last baby, I can move on more acceptingly.
I need to check if it's 4 or 6 weeks off driving with inureance company tomorow as it will cause me alot of issues with kids activitives exp towards xmas and my good (fellow mums doing same clubs etc - mates don't know what ive been upto and will find it odd , that I'm not driving nor cycling the kids to things.... hummmm tricky.. maybee I should tell them, but this has been my secret for soo long now, I don't know where to start.... they might be annoyed I didn't tell them.. they are good mates..
Hubby also agreed to start his wellman conception vitamins at the weekend, I get his and her tablets out to have with dinner each day..... bless him, he actually doesn't even want anymore kids, he finds 4 very stressful..... he wanted to stop at 2, but he knows how badley I want this for me and Devon..
I posted off a request for a copy of histology report if one was made, to see how much tube was cut out , takes ages, in fact it took ages for the form itself to arrive!! You have to pay for it, but hopefully it might arrive back before op as it can be canceled just 48hrs before! with no payment made if I find, actually I have only 1cm tubes left!
I came on tonight, due on tomorow, so maybee I could gently ttc if not too sore , not this month, but after op in november cycle?
So anyway - arghhh excited......
