Hi everyone,
I’m a new member to the Bub Hub and honestly have never posted anything online before so you’ll have to excuse my ignorance in regards to forum etiquette and abbreviations.
I’m 26 YO Sydney sider, and my hubby (33) and I have been TTC without luck for almost 2 years now.
I thought that my ‘stress pot’ personality was to blame and tried to take the advice that every second person tells you. “Stop trying so hard and it’ll just happen”. After exotic holidays overseas, health & lifestyle changes and every other possible thing that we’ve been told to do, we’re almost 2 years down the track and those elusive twin lines have still not shown themselves.
After many tears, lots of disappointment and a hell of a lot of frustration due to ‘not knowing why’ we’ve taken the inevitable step of seeing a specialist. When initial test results came back all okay, I decided to go under and I had my first laparoscopy on Friday. We’ve got no solid results at this point as we’re yet to see our doc in person again, but from the results in the Op report that he sent us via email, the basic consensus is possible tubal disease as the Dye test they did showed a significant lack of flow through one of my tubes and no flow at all through the other.
I guess I just wanted to know if anyone else had been through anything similar, what options you were presented with and what steps you’ve since taken.
Hope to hear back soon! My fingers are forever crossed!

I just wanted to say hi and welcome to bubhub :wave:
I am not exactly in the same postion as you, but I do know how ttc can suck big time :thumbsdown:

At least you are on the right path, and starting to find out why. It is much easier to deal with when you know why it's taking so long.
The great thing is that you are young:yes: , so you have time on your side.
Good luck and let us know how you go.

Hi Lil, just wanted to say hello and welcome.:wave:
like ld said, you now know what may have been stopping a BFP and it will be easier to move forward. Your FS will discuss your options at your next appointment.
And at 26 you have time on your side.
You will possibly still hear "stop trying so hard" from people, they obviously dont know how frustating that is to hear it and you learn to smile.
Sorry I cant help too much , you will get heaps of support on BubHub.

Hi! :wave:

I just wanted to say Welcome to BubHub, you have come to the right place for support in this emotional time.

I dont know much about what you are going through with regards to the tubes etc. I do know how it sucks to be TTCing for so long though. I have been TTCing for about 15 months now. With various problems along the way which I will not get into right now.

Anyway I hope our little forum brings you some luck...

It's actually helping already to know that there are other people out there who are also doing it tough TTC.
Looking forward to chatting (hopefully about some positive news for everyone!).
