Hello all!! I use to post here a long time ago when I got pregnant with my daughter Ava.
I thought I was done having children and actually had my tubes tied after I had my daughter. I had a son Jakob with special needs as well. We had a miscarriage before getting pregnant with Ava as well.
I am 30 years old and I am a full time student and a full time mom. I have a wonderful husband of 7 years.
We lost my son Jakob though almost 2 years ago. Ever since that happened I have wanted a reversal so we could try again. I finally got my dream come true. Almost 2 months ago I had a reversal done. I only have 6 inches of tube on the left side and only 4 inches on the right side. The Ob says that is enough to have a good chance at getting pregnant. We are officially trying but we aren't going to chart or anything at this point. Just try to have fun with it at first. After a while if we don't get pregnant we will start the charting and such.
I hope to post here as much as I can and start to get to know all of you in your TTC journey.
I wish you all lots and lots of baby dust!

Jess!!!! It's so good to see you. Don't know if you remember me, used to come on here as Alex and Ethanael's mommy. I was so sorry to hear about Jakob, I remember when you posted in another forum about him.
I pray that everything goes smoothly for you and you catch the eggie very quickly.
I bet Ava is getting so big!

I am so, so, so sorry about Jakob  I lost my little NICU baby Andrew at five days old, and can only imagine what it must be like to lose an older child  SO sorry, and for your miscarriage, too.
Congratulations on the reversal! It's so great that you're able to continue with your dream together  I'm glad you decided to start hanging out with us!
