Congratulations, Kim! Those are wonderful results!

hello everyone

I dont post much, i have been with this group since last summer, and

have gotten ALOT of useful infromation, however after careful

consideration about Dr.s, costs, successes, etc.... I decided to go

with Dr. . Hope that doesn't offend anyone. I am now in the

process of recovering from my TR. WHOOOO HOOOO!!!!!! It was done on

Thurs. Feb 20, 2003 just 5 days ago. When i first joined the group I

really thought i would be going to Dr. Levin however I am overweight

maybe 15 lbs over his weight restriction for higher fee and no buddy,

and 38 so i didnt want to wait until i could save that much money so

i started looking into other Dr.s. I know there r a few ladies in

this group who have used Dr. , so i thought i would write and

tell u all that i am fertile again. My tube lengths were Right 6-7

and Left 7-8. I had the 3 day FSH done and it was fine, hubby had the

SA done and it was fine. However i am not regular so my Dr. here is

going to work with me, to get things straitened out. But........ i

have to wait due to the healing DRAT!!! lol But i can start TTC at

the end of March, can't wait lol, I cant even practice til then

because i had a slight yeast infection when he did the surgery and

that needs to be completly gone before bd, and i need to see my Dr.

here to make sure everything is ok. Well i guess this is long enough

for now .lol I am sure u will here from me more often now that i will

be ttc, and u guys r a wealth of infromation.

Baby dust to all,

Hi and welcome back!! Congratulations on getting your

finances together for your TR!! What an exciting time for you and

your DH!! I have been in the group for about 18 months and I was

just able to have my TR on Feb. 17th. Seems like alot of us that

have been sticking it out are finally getting our turns. Best

wishes to you and DH.

HI ! I remember you from when I was around last year... great to see you

back!

Hello everyone

I am not sure if anyone remembers me or not but I was part of this

group a little over a year ago. I stopped posting for awhile because

I was just not financially able to have my tr and wasn't sure when I

would be able to. I am back now and finally ready to have it done.

I recognize a few names on here and I hope that you have all been

well and can't wait to get caught up on what's been happening over

the last year.

For those of you that I do not know, I look forward to getting to

know you.

Hugs,

i can finally sit down and rest today... My party on Sat was a hit i

had 150 people there.. Before i get into details about the party..My

husband i did get more land so now we own 100 acres and with that we

ended up getting 2 ponies for the kids..I also was able to bring home

2 more of my horses..

Well the party was good and the horses were very tried so i stopped

the rides after 3 hours.. So we had a great fire and lots of food and

games it started at 6 and ended at midnight.. but some of my closer

friends and family stayed longer..

It took me now to clean the place up with the mess i ended up with..

One good thing is i had help cleaning up..

I just wanted to say to u angie is i am so happy to hear about ur

leisons going away i started to cry.. it was wonderful news.. I am

sorry to hear about the sad news u will be in my prayers... I am

going into the doctors office for more test.. and i am getting real

sick and i feel it is due to the party and gettting this land and so

on... they are going to give me a pregenancy test.. and blood work

and blah blah..You know doctors and there talk.. so i will let u all

know what is going on..

Take care..

Oh Tina how disappointing for you. But good for you for sticking to

your guns about the surgery. We all have to know our limits and when

to say NO.

Hang in there.
