Hello Everyone! I am also new to the board and I am currently dieting so that I can get my BMI down. I am looking forward to having a baby soon, but tomorrow I am taking the first step and faxing my operative report to DR. B. to see if I am a good candidate for the TR procedure. You all are in my prayers and good luck with getting pregnant. Also once I get my response back from the operative report then I can move forward with scheduling for the TR. Thanks, and I have to say that when I first started reading the message boards my eyes just feel with tears because even though I wasn't with you all I felt the love and support on the board.

Pennylane no no I didnt mean to confuse you. You can schedule with Dr. Monteith M-F I was just saying that Monday July 21 was already booked Im sorry for the confusion! I sure hope you get your date soon. Also you can call when you have a date in mind and ask one of the nurses to see if that date is available and they will let you know as the availability chances very fast b/c not everyone that schedules post on this board.

Hopefulin08, does that mean that they only schedule for Mondays? I'm lost. I really would like to schedule for a Thursday. I am really hoping that is possible. I am having a huge yard sale/bake sale the first weekend in May to raise more money for my surgery. I am really trying hard not to take out a loan.

Thank you for making me feel welcome. I keep reading over everything just researching every aspect of it. So much so that I sent myself into a panic. I am all over it now and ready to go. I think I'm just anchious to get this surgery behind me. I am really hoping to get pregnant fairly quickly. I had three pregnancies and three live births and they were all full to term. two on due dates too! I am hoping that will play in my favor. Please keep your fingers crossed for me!!! And good luck to everyone else with both the surgery and getting pregnant. Although, I have to get to know all of the abreviations that they use on here. I just get so lost.

Hi everyone! I'm new here. I am from Shippensburg, PA. It is a small town not to far from Harrisburg, PA. I had my tubes cut when I was 24 (8 years ago) and I regret it. I was since widowed and met a fantastic guy. We have been married for 5 years now and would love to have a child together. I have almost all of my money together and I am hoping to get in there the week of July 21st with the new doctor. I'm very excited, ancious and nervous all at the same time. I have been doing Weight watchers for over a year now and have lost a little over 50 pounds. I have a BMI of 25 now but I am going to try to shed the last 15 so that I can start a new pregnancy on a healthy note.
