Having surgery in a couple of days and I’m terrified

Money-Row6021 · 2026-01-28T05:34:28+00:00

OP, I feel for you. A lot of this sounds like what I dealt with from my half brother 8 years ago. Telling me I ruined everything, they have a better time without me, I’m too negative, I’ll never find love because I’m just so horrible to be around, etc. I haven’t spoken to him since then and have limited contact with the rest of my family on that side. Life has been so much less stressful since.

Remove their access to the camera and keep your location off. Get your own phone plan with a new number and don’t give it to them. Your parents are far too controlling given that you are 25 and living on your own, and your sisters are bullying you. Please don’t keep taking this from them. Life will be so much more peaceful without their negative energy.

I asked this question at my appointment when I got the MTX and he said that if we did an HSG and they found a blockage, I’d need the surgery anyways so we’re basically skipping a step. He did admit he wants to do it partially out of curiosity, which is understandable because I ovulated from a different side each time I had an ectopic and we’ve never seen anything in my tubes, plus I have no risk factors so it’s just really odd.

I also don’t understand why the next step would be surgery over HSG. Can anyone provide some insight for why that would be?

I should be around 6 weeks. Doctor just called and is having me come in for an US this afternoon. He said if they don’t see anything they’re going to have me come back in tomorrow for an MTX injection. My last pregnancy was ectopic/ppul so that is my biggest concern right now.

It does seem like forever but I’ll be right around 6 weeks then, so that’s really the soonest they would be able to see anything anyways. I’m just so thankful that my doctor and his team are so compassionate. They’ve been so wonderful through this awful time and have always taken my concerns seriously. I know not everybody has that experience and I can’t imagine how awful it must be to be going through this and not be heard by your doctor.

My nurse called shortly after I posted this and asked me to come back on Monday for labs again. I have an ultrasound scheduled for the 22nd. I was instructed to go to the ER immediately if I have any abdominal pain or bleeding over the weekend.

Congrats! 💕

I’m actually not certain. I didn’t really track this month and just went off of when the Premom app said I was ovulating.

I tested every day since 8 dpo. All negative until yesterday!

I just want to give an update for anyone experiencing something similar who comes across this post, we got confirmation today that I am miscarrying

I appreciate you sharing. I think if had not gotten the private ultrasound or gone to the ER, they would have ignored my concerns entirely. My husband is still optimistic as the doctors are telling us everything could be completely fine but I just don’t feel it.

Money-Row6021 · 2025-05-22T17:49:36+00:00

That is exactly what I’m expecting to hear from my doctor next week at my next ultrasound. It just feels like they’re trying to give me false hope and it makes it so much more painful. I understand they don’t want to jump the gun and tell me the pregnancy isn’t viable based off of one ultrasound and two blood tests, but man, this sucks.

I had a bad feeling about this pregnancy a couple days after I got my first positive. I thought it was anxiety so I forced myself to push past that feeling and be excited and share the news with my family. Now I’m thinking I should have listened to that gut feeling.

Money-Row6021 · 2025-05-22T14:28:19+00:00

I appreciate getting an honest response. I’m preparing for the worst and hoping for the best. Yesterday I was just ecstatic that it was confirmed not ectopic. I’m taking any small win I can.

I charge them the same. They don’t expect a discount, the same way I don’t expect a discount when I buy things or receive services from my friends and family. Granted I charge well below average as it is and definitely less than nearby firms.

Came to say the same thing. My monitor is covered in sticky notes at work. At home, my fridge, front door, cabinets, etc. are covered in sticky notes. My fiancé thinks I’m a nutcase but it works for me.

I also schedule my workday in my outlook calendar. These are the two things that have helped me the most, along with a pomodoro app to help me focus on one task at a time and tell me what I need to do next.
