Conceived naturally with tubal infertility?

[Freckles]

Hi, I'm looking for success stories of anyone who has tubal infertility but went on to conceive naturally anyway? Or conceived naturally after an ectopic? I have to believe there's hope for me too!

Thanks!

Sorry I don't have the story you are looking for. I just wanted to tell you I'm so very sorry about your three losses. I hope whatever path you need to take to get there, you have a child of your own very soon.

You might want to check out the website http://www.inciid.org

There is a message board there specifically for tubal IF.

I have tubal IF, but had to do IVF to get pregnant. I know of several women though who had one open tube and got pg.

Good Luck to you! I know how hard the IF journey is ((hugs))

HI,

I'm very sorry for the pain you've been thru and the babies you lost. My tubes are/were blocked from endo. I was on lupron for 10 months and my tubes opened up.(it shrunk it) But I didn't get pg, they closed again. We had IVF and got pg with our son. In Oct we got pg and m/c in Nov. Now while we did conceive which was amazing, we lost the baby.(could have been partial ectopic they aren't totally sure, long story) we've been trying since with no luck.

I wanted to offer you any support I can. If you need to talk or whatever. I don't know what the nature of your tubal problems are but has you doctor given you any ideas on treatments or something? Another thing you might want to try is to see an RE that specializes in your problem. You might also want to look into a fertility monitor if you don't use one now. That should help you at least increase your odds if you know when you are O'ing.

I wish you the best of luck and hope you get pg really soon!

success story!

Hello... looking for a success story.. here I am.

My DH and I married in 99' and after ttc for a year we both went through the infert tests..sperm count was great so I had an HSG (dye test) and they told me I had 100% blockage in my tubes and not a single drop of dye came through. in short I would NEVER conceive naturally. I was devastated. became very depressed and finally just gave up the idea.. we spend the next year of our life getting ready to foster..fixed up house had everything tested (as per our county guideline) well water , health physicals, background checks, everything. then at our last house inspection. we sat and talked about the foster system with the caseworker. she told us straight out that we would not have a child for more then 2 years at a time and the statistics in our county were 99% reunion with parents..and she never had a case were the fosters were granted adoption (our real hope)... so I bailed. I couldn't give myself to someone for 2 years and have them ripped form my arms (pretty selfish I know ..but I couldn't do it..I knew I would run with the kid! horrible but I am being honest..I come from and abusive childhood) so anyhow we just gave up the idea of children..and lived our life.. one day I was at the gym and I nearly passed out doing a Taebo class.. and I felt really weird..and my boobs were killing me..so on a secret whim.(I could have owned stock in first response pregnancy tests).I got a pg test and it was possitive. then I bought 3 more. I couldn't believe it...I drove to DH's work and when I got there hysterically crying he thought I had been in a car accident..I couldn't even talk.. finally I showed him the 4 positive tests..and he started to cry too! so here we are..with DS 16months as of today. he is our miracle baby...and if it can happen to us..it can happen to anybody..never lose hope. the docs don't know everything.. sometimes destiny has a greater plan.
