I’m 37, I have two older children that I had when I was very young. I have been on progesterone birth control for many years off and on. I’ve been TTC for over a year, going through all the the tests to find out why I wasn’t getting pregnant. Once I hit 6 months of trying I started clomid and then famara. The last test I needed to do was the HSG procedure. I received the unfortunate news that I had bilateral occlusion, basically both of my fallopian tubes were blocked and will not be able to conceive without <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IVF</a>. I was an obvious mess. Being that I have children, I understand I’m blessed. So due to the cost and not wanting to put my body through more hormones during the process of <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IVF</a> with no guarantee we decided we didn’t need to make a decision about it right now. My AMH count is high for my age so we figured we have time to make such a big decision, as much as, we want to have a child together. Decided I was going to focus on keeping me healthy. Throw myself into work, my masters, gym and making memories with my husband. I also dove into Chinese medicine to look at natural methods for unblocking my tubes and the mean time we keep trying, since it wasn’t going to hurt anything. Quickly finding out that I should wait to complete my current cycle that I had the HSG in before trying anything. Two weeks after the procedure I had what appeared to be spotting. I had been having mild cramps which was normal before my period. My period would be due shortly and since I’m usually early so I wasn’t shocked. Just told my husband I’d be starting soon. When I didn’t start by CD30 I took a test. BFP! It was so quick! I was again a mess. I immediately told my doctor and have since taken 2 HCG blood tests and everything is looking good. I’m trying to enjoy this but I’m still concerned about miscarriage or ectopic pregnancy. Until I’m far enough to take an ultrasound they will continue to monitor my levels and I will continue to take care of me. Hoping for a healthy full term pregnancy. Just know there is hope. Whatever decision you make to conceive or not to, you are enough. Sending all the mommas TTC baby dust.
