uzoo:

@pslm23

you're welcome.
how are you doing today? just thought i should check up on you on here.

Doing better, thanks for asking Uzoo. I'm getting my body and mental mind ready for surgery and then for IVF #2. The one good news I got regarding the surgery is that they will not be cutting me open to do it. They will knock me out and go through "down there" to remove the tube. I've been told that when i wake, i will be in a lot of pain with some bleeding but after a couple of days I should start feeling better. For me, it's better than incisions in my belly and waiting for the wound to heal. My doc says she prefers the other way because it eliminates any more scar tissues forming in me. I'm spending most of my free time on Nairaland reading stuff that just makes me laugh so bad but at least takes my mind off of worrying about the surgery and IVF

I don't usually comment on this type of thread, but girl! @pslm23  shocked shocked you are one classy and tough lady!
Your husband is also a real man. i will pray for both of you and i will pray for you especially.

Please, if possible, ,memorize Psalm 20 and meditate on it daily because i believe you are under a wicked plan by your foundation (your place of birth, the god(s) your ancestors worshiped, your family lineage or ancestors themselves) to deny you motherhood and fulfillment. Just my spiritual hunch.
Ask for God to fight for you!

Psalm 20

1 The LORD hear thee in the day of trouble;
       
the name of the God of Jacob defend thee;
2 send thee help from the sanctuary,
       
and strengthen thee out of Zion;

3 remember all thy offerings,
       
and accept thy burnt sacrifice.
Selah.
4 Grant thee according to thine own heart,
       
and fulfil all thy counsel.

5 We will rejoice in thy salvation,
       
and[b] in the name of our God we will set up our banners:
the LORD fulfil all thy petitions.[/b]
6 Now know I that the LORD saveth his anointed;
       
he will hear him from his holy heaven
with the saving strength of his right hand.
7 Some trust in chariots, and some in horses:
       
but we will remember the name of the LORD our God.
8 They are brought down and fallen:
       
but we are risen, and stand upright.

9 Save, LORD:
       
let the king hear us when we call.

It is well with you my sister.

i said that because the plot to deny you motherhood started very early in your life (shabby surgery) and has manifested itself at every turn(shabby surgery always!). Imagine the last surgery! punching your bladder and still failing to fix the tubes properly which led to the IVF failing!
Nne pray for God to rise in his anger and fight for your defense!
Re: Anyone Trying IVF/IUI/ICSI (Fertility Treatments)? by realchange: 9:12pm On Nov 22, 2011
if you need help, i can recommend some pray books written by powerful man of God to empower you and your husband to take the fight to the enemy. I will be checking this thread often.

Hi peeps, one of my dearest friend (we met on nairaland), also in God's waiting room called yesterday to share her good news on IVF. She got a BFP and I can't stop sharing the good news. It shows that come 2012, whether through IVF or natural conception, God will surely give us new titles from waiting mothers to expectant mothers. Congrats Girl!!!

Hi all, @ Rusty, i'm sorry i never called you back after we spoke the first time. Nov was a crazy month for me with numerous doctors visits etc. i'm sure you are back in Nigeria now. Hope your stay here was beautiful and fun. @ Uzoo, thanks for asking after me. The Lord is my strength. A lot has happened since my negative result and post IVF consultation. @ Blendy, a big fat congratulations to your friend! It is always so heart warming and great to read other people's successful IVF stories. It gives me and others the courage and strength to keep trying. We need more people to speak up regarding IVF and the good it can do in a childless couples life. @ 7Colors, I'm surprised to find you here on my thread after your despicable attitude towards me and the fact that you mocked my childlessness. In the spirit of the season and because I don't want to enter 2012 hating on anybody, i will kindly advise you to please not advertise your usual "adverts" on my thread. Open up your own thread and market what you have to offer to other women  but you need to pick your words carefully and know how to present your pitch otherwise the same thing that happened last time between me and you will repeat itself.

Now to update you my dear friends and well-wishers, Jan 11, I'm scheduled for the esure tubal litigation surgery, This is the one where they'll go through the vajayjay to tie of the hydro tube. It will take approximately 3 months to completely heal from this procedure before i can commence with round 2 of IVF. It is well.
I have another thing to worry about oh. I suffered a nasty slip and fall at my local walmart (their roof was leaking heavily on a rainy day and there was nothing catching the water and no sign indicating that the floor was wet. I went flying through the air and landed on my tailbone and now my back is busted real bad. I had to do an MRI and then referred to a neurosurgeon becos i had a herniated bulging disc that was causing unspeakable pain down my legs. The doctors are throwing around words like back surgery and steroid injections. This is going to put a big dent in my IVF plans. Like my doctor says, I will not be able to  carry a pregnancy to full term with the damage in my back.
When it rains it pours my sisters and brothers. Your prayers and love are still very much needed by me. To cap it all my beloved grandma died last week and I have to go home for the funeral. How will i sit through almost 17 hours of flight from PHL to Abuja when I can barely walk now from the pain in my back. The Lord is on the throne. Hugs to y'all.

Hi all,hope u guys are doing great,@ psalm 23, i have never posted on this thread before even though I have read through it all, your story really touched me and am glad you were able to share this.am really very sorry to hear about your fall and everything, i want you to know that our God neither sleeps nor slumber and he will see you through everything, please do not mind any negative thing coming from anybody to you, just have faith in God and he'll help you, you are a great woman and there not many women like you. you are always in my prayer and God will bless you real good and make his face to shine upon you, very soon you will carry your own babies.

@ Psalm 23, the devil is a lie and he has failed already. It is always very very dark before it is dawn, it just shows that your morning has come and the enemy has being put to shame finnaly.

Fall or No Fall, My God still do miracles and like I said, he who has started the good work in you is faithful to complete it.
Re: Anyone Trying IVF/IUI/ICSI (Fertility Treatments)? by Blendy77(f): 10:02pm On Dec 10, 2011
Psalm23, so sorry to hear about your fall. The devil is a liar and will never succeed. Meanwhile don't forget to sue them and make good money for yourself this season.
To every else, my friend's scan showed the 2 embryos transfered implanted. What a great news, twins for this season! I don't know why she has not come up to share her testimony herself, probably adjusting to her new title. babe congrats once again, can't stop sharing your testimony on ur behalf cos I'm already taping into it. For those that wants to know, she went to Bridge but always have it at the back of your mind that its God that did it.

@blendy77 thanx a great deal for the info.
@pslm23 i must say u are an inspiration to me. U gave me that push i needed and i pray that joy that u so desire will come to u no matter what u r going thru. U will have a story to tell. Ur days of mourning are over, ur joy has come and for everyone of us seeking His blessings too. Whoeva mocks u or me or anyother person has God to answer to.
Re: Anyone Trying IVF/IUI/ICSI (Fertility Treatments)? by Nobody: 8:24pm On Dec 12, 2011
Psalm 23, I'm back by his grace and you can bet I had fun. Just the stress of 16hrs travel and the fact that I'v to return to work and Lagos traffic. So sorry to hear about your fall. Hope you're not hurt? Like Blendy said, make sure you sue those guys cos if its those Oyinbos, they will pay like mad. Make sure you don't pity them o.
Congrats, Osiyemia. I'm happy for you o! Can't wait to wear that shoes of being preggy, I pray the good Lord who started this will perfect it and we will all be there to dedicate your twins.
Omogemi, if you can afford it, pls don't hesitate to try IVF cos lots of people seem to find happiness through that route. I wish you all the best and don't fail to share your testimony when your title changes o!
Lots of baby dust to everyone.

Hi just found this thread recently. I just got a BFP last Thursday, after 10 years of trying, countless IUI,s,one myomectomy,and 4 cycles of Ivf. I can barely believe it because apart from a foul metallic taste in my mouth, I feel so normal. Today however I noticed my feet looked swollen, I think it's much to early for that then I remember all the drugs I was and am on. And I did everything here in Nigeria.

Pslm23,sorry to hear what you are going through. I will keep you in my prayers, my last IVF ended in a miscarriage and I was devastated especially since I knew what caused it( a mix up with my drugs). I really didn't want to try again but I am glad I did. Hang in there, blowing angel dust your way.

My eyes are filled with tears, 10yrs? Waooooooooooooooooooh, I'm happy for you. I'm just 5yrs in this ttc game and I feel like I've been abandoned by God. Girl, congrats o, the God who started this will surely see you through to the end. was it bridge you used? I feel encouraged to try another IVF after 4 trials. Congrats once more. So many good news of BFP coming in at this time of the year. What a way to celebrate this xmas! Lots of Baby dust to everyone.

i used Georges memorial in Lekki phase 1 for all my 4 attempts. IVF is just a crazy roller coaster ride. I have friends travelling all over the world SA, UK, India and while some have good results others don't. Just hold on to your faith and pray that God leads you to your own right place.
