Infertility Support Group

New here....I was diagnosed with uterine fibroids when I think when I was 26 or 27. At that time I wasn't even thinking about having children. I am now 33 and recently lost my son at 22 weeks due to the fibroids. As my pregnancy progressed my fibroids grew causing me to go into pre-term labor on 5/21/12....losing my son was THE most horrible thing I have ever experienced in my life. This was my first pregnancy. I was in and out of the hospital during my pregnancy with so much fibroid pain. I have fibroids to the right and left of my uterus as well as one right above my cervix. I also have more in many different sizes and in other areas of my uterus.

It took us a year to concieve....I was scheduled to have a myomectomy 2 days before I found out I was pregnant...that was cancelled. Now that I lost my son I am very determined to have another child. I am now going through therapy as well as following up with my OB. I am going to have the surgery in August...I am actually looking forward to it to hopefully preserve my fertility. The thought of having a hysterectomy scares the crap out of me...I only have the information what my doctor has told me and my own research from different websites and actually watched surgeries on youtube...I am hoping and praying this time next year I am expecting again.....

The pain sometimes is so unbearable. People tell me not to cry and be strong....ummmmmmm excuse me but I appreciate the support but please don't tell me how to feel. Therapy has been helping but I am debating on going on meds...I have support from family and friends, but when I am alone it just gets to me....not sure what to do. The pain will never go away completely but I am trying to remain positive, keep praying and look towards the future.

your such a string woman and feel how you feel, never keep it in, things are rough, one day they will get better believe it. i have faith in it, even though i can be so negative, if its meant to be it will happen. god created us and has a great path for us, we have to wait and in the end its worth it, every last day.
