Anyone had experience of not ovulating after EP?

Hi all, Having a pretty bad morning as just been at hospital for a scan and it looks as though I’m not ovulating. I was just beginning to feel a bit better after my ruptured ectopic pregnancy 3 months ago and this news has just floored me. I had to take provera last month as my periods hadn’t come b...

Re: Emotional Rollercoaster

Hope going back to work this week goes OK. I went back to work a few weeks ago and have found it quite tough. I have struggled with thinking that people expect me to be back to normal and I just don't feel it. My boss has been very supportive and I've got a lot of flexibility about when I'm doing wo...

Re: Struggling

Thank you Sunshine19. I just had a message from a friend letting me know she had her baby on Friday and I just feel so sad. I'm scared that'll never be me, and also feel guilty as I just can't feel happy for other people having babies at the moment. Counselling can't come soon enough! Thank you for ...

Re: Emotional Rollercoaster

Hello I just wanted to reply to say you’re not alone and please don’t apologise for being negative. What you’ve been through is incredibly tough both physically and emotionally and it will take time to heal. I had emergency surgery for a ruptured ectopic 2 months ago today and it really has been an ...

Re: Struggling

I’m so glad you had a helpful chat with someone. I’ve really struggled with feeling like I don’t have anyone to talk to who has gone through anything similar. I’ve got my first counselling session next week - they can only offer me fortnightly sessions but better than nothing and it has helped a bit...

Re: Struggling

Thank you so much for replying and I’m so sorry you are also going through this. I can’t imagine how difficult that was to hear from your cousin that she is pregnant. It just feels so unfair. I feel like I’m living in dread of the next pregnancy announcement- they seem to be coming from everywhere. ...

Struggling

Hi all, I just needed to post this morning as have been really struggling lately. I had emergency surgery for ectopic pregnancy 2 months ago, as well as a miscarriage in January. The due date for my first baby would’ve been 10 July and ever since then I’ve struggled not to just think about how thing...

Re: New to forum, need advice on recovery

I am so sorry you are going through this. I just wanted to message so you know you are not alone. I don’t have any answers on recovery - it’s been just over a month since my surgery and I also had a miscarriage in January and I’ve felt totally broken. I understand the fears about the future and the ...

Re: Looking for hope

Thank you and I’m so sorry for your losses. It is such a difficult time, I can’t really motivate myself to do anything. Trying hard to hold on to hope, and really do wish that you get your rainbow baby too. Take care xxxx

Re: Looking for hope

Thank you so much for your reply, and I am so sorry you have had similar losses. I was told the same by the consultant, and trying to hold on to that, but it’s tough not knowing what the future holds and having no guarantees. Feel like I can’t really face the feelings of loss and fear, so just shutt...

Looking for hope

Hello all, Posting for first time as feeling really hopeless today. Last Tuesday I ended up having emergency surgery for a ruptured ectopic pregnancy, losing my right tube. This is following miscarriage surgery in January at 11wks (although they think baby stopped growing at about 5/6 weeks). I’m re...
