The Big Mistake

The big mistake that changed everything... 

Post-Op Update:

There was a mistake with my results.

I went to my my post-op appointment and it was with a different doctor because my original doctor was out of the office. She explained my surgery summary of how things went and everything... And I'm not sure if my other doctor got confused when he told me the results or not... But these are the real results:

Both fallopian tubes were blocked. I had endometriosis everywhere as well as scar tissue. My entire left side was all twisted and stuck together. My right side was fine, but my right tube was still completely blocked.

They were able to completely fix the left side, and unblock the tube. I was INITIALLY told that both tubes were unblocked!! But, as it turns out, they were NOT able to save my right tube. It is still completely blocked, and they could not unblock it. So, I only have an unblocked left tube. (Lol, I am very overprotective right now of my entire left side of my body.)

That's still such a blessing because I still have an equal opportunity to get pregnant because my right ovary is perfectly fine. If I happen to ovulate out of my right ovary that month, it can go into the left tube  I was told I still have as good of a chance of getting pregnant as other women do... If I ovulate.

I was told that I do NOT ovulate.  AT ALL. That was sad to hear.

Good news is... There is medicine out there that can make me ovulate. It's called Clomid. So, I will be taking that from now on.

It's hard having so many problems. As a woman, I want to have a normal cycle. I always dreaded to hear that I was "infertile". It's so hard to realize that what I feared is reality. I just want to badly to have a baby. So, so badly. It breaks my heart.

But, it's interesting how Heavenly Father works. He will only give us trials that are hard for us. It wouldn't be a trial if it had no affect on us. Heavenly Father knew that this would be the hardest for me. But, He also knew that I would rely on Him and become incredibly close to Him through this trial.

I KNOW that as Tyler and I endure this trial well, He will bless us with a child. I know that Jesus Christ has gone through this trial in the Garden of Gethsemane and knows EXACTLY how I feel. Because He knows how I feel, I can rely on Him as well and know how He endured this trial, and I can follow His example. I am grateful for this Gospel of Jesus Christ. This trial would be so much harder without it.

We have 4 months get pregnant with the Clomid. If I don't get pregnant by then, we will do an IUI (Artificial Insemination). If that is unsuccessful, we will do an IVF.

Either way, we will get pregnant soon!
