Leslie, I am so sorry you are going through this.it really sukks......

My advice is, don't waste anymore time with a regular OBGYN, please go to an RE...I am not saying your doctor is not good but with issues like this it is best to be looked after an RE...

I am sure once your issues with the cervix are resolved which I hope will happen without any more unnecessary pain (physical & mental), you will get your BFP!!! I hope it will happen really soon....

I know this is probably the last thing you want to think of but would you consider IVF?? we all know IVF gives the best chances of pregnancy (% wise) and it bypasses any tubal & cervical issues you might have...it also saves time in a lot of cases....just something to think about...

I am mentally preparing myself to go the route of an RE. Now I am at the point of whatever I need to do to have a child of my own I will do. If that means IVF, then of course that is what it will be.

However, I would be remiss if I said I wasn't terrified - terrified that things might not work, terrified that we won't have the money for things, terrified that it will take forever, terrified that I am not strong enough to handle bad news. Everything "baby related" triggers a response in me that quickly reminds me of what the possibilities are.

Then I think about all of the things in my life that I do have - things that people would kill for - a supportive spouse and extended family, a roof over my head, a career, health insurance and otherwise good health and food on my table - and I know I should feel blessed. And I am blessed. There are thousands of people in dire situations that make mine look easy. I never forget that.

As I have said before whether here or private FMs, it is the uncertainty of the process that scares me most. Perhaps it is what scares us all. I think I need sometime to let it all sink in so I can continue to move ahead with the utmost clarity. Right now, I am simply clouded though I know that wallowing in self pity isn't going to make things happen faster.

Thanks again ladies.

I am sorry that you are going through this.
I agree that an RE will be your best bet.

Please try to stay proactive- make your list of questions for the RE you choose.

one of the hardest things TTC is admitting that you may need "some" intervention.
Know in your heart you will be informed after a little time spent visiting the Re's office.
It may even be empowering.

I hope that you have the answers you need soon

I would definately go to RE. Please trust me it isn't as terrifying as you think it is going to be. It's hard, draining, frustrating & downright bloody awful at times, but the ladies here on this board are so kind, gentle & supportive, they have certainly been a lifeline for me.
