Would a doctor help?

[wendy may]

HI everyone, I'm new on here. Just stumbled across this site by accident. I had 2 ectopic pregnancies nearly four years ago and lost one tube.I have been trying to concieve ever since. My partner has very much fallen into the view point of 'what's meant to be is meant to be' but I feel like craving a baby is taking over my life. We're fortunate enough to have a daughter but I hate that she's an only child. I don't want to go down the route of IVF but I need to know whether it is possible for me to conceive naturally. Does anybody know if that is something a doctor would do. I'vealways felt that asking a doctor to test me with no intention of trying any medical intervention is slightly cheeky and talked myself out of going. God that looks silly written down!! I'm terrified af finding out I may never have another child but I spend every month hoping that this may be the one lucky month and it never is. It's exhausting and the cycle of hope and heartache needs to stop. Maybe I've hit the time where enough is enough and I should be thankful for what I have?

Hi

I dont have any personal experience of this. But my DH's friends wife had an ectopic a year ago and the tube was removed. She found out she was pregnant again last november and everything is going well. So there is always a chance, if you still have one tube then i dont see why it cant happen. I also think that there is no harm going to the doctors, even if you dont want help. You dont have to tell them this. I'm sure that a lot of people go foir help and then change their mind when it gets to IVF. Its always nice to know that everything is ok......and if it isn't maybe it would offer closure, or maybe it may change your mind about treatment!

I hope you manage to reach a decision

Ditto to the above....they may also be able to help in other ways than going for the big guns of IVF.
