i'm worried about my tubal
by Cassie
I just had a tubal august 22. I just found this site through a search engine last wednesday, about a week after the fact. I am worried about what might happen. I have read alot of terrible stuff on this site. So now im scared that im going to have horrible periods and no telling what else. Can anyone tell me that some people make it through this ok? I feel terrible what the women have gone through, after having this procedure done. It is a tragedy.
Ill tell you what happened. I went in two weeks ago, aug. 19, for a regular prenatal checkup. i was almost 14 weeks pregnant, with my 4th child. My husband and i have 3 daughters. There was no heartbeat. My Dr. did ultrasound and my baby was not alive, it measured 13 1/2 weeks gestation. To make a long story short, my husband and i went into the hospital to give birth to our baby. It was an awful experience, and very sad. I discussed having a tubal with my husband and dr.; my husband would've had a vasectomy, i just thought since i was in the hospital i may as well do it. I was just afraid of the surgery. I trust my dr., he's an ob/gyn, he delivered all my children, ive been going to him along time. This was my 2nd loss, my 1st pregnancy i lost a baby at 12 weeks, the baby was only 9 weeks gestation though. I didnt want to take the chance of this happening again. I dont care to have anymore children and my husband feels the same. I cannot tell you all how much i wanted that little baby that i lost. We saw it after everything was out and i was cleaned up. It was a little boy. We saw him.
So my question is have i totally ruined myself by having this done? I thought i had made the right decision, until i had read all this bad stuff that could happen with my health. That really scares me. So if anyone can please tell me something positive, please do. thank you all, cassie
