“The CHTRC staff and Dr. Gary Berger were amazing! All fears were completely gone and we felt comfort in knowing we did make the right decision.”
Posted February 29th, 2009
Early into my relationship with my husband I found out how important it was to him to have children of his own. Although he was a great “Dad” already to my 2 young boys I knew getting a reversal was something we would look into in our future. After a year of marriage we spoke so often of me getting a reversal. After researching online, we came across CHTRC. I was so afraid. We were looking for someone to do an operation on me….online!! I decided we should look and speak to local doctors. We were then referred to an Infertility Dr. Months then went on as we were just completely unsure of what to do. It would be twice as expensive to have the procedure done locally than it would to go with the “Dr” we had found online that specializes in TRs. Finally we made our decision, December 2006, we scheduled our TR with Dr. Gary Berger for January 8, 2007!!
January 8, 2007 came faster than we expected! We were all so excited yet nervous! Arriving with the other couples to CHTRC was nice, we were definitely not alone! The staff at the hotel, the driver, CHTRC staff and Dr. Gary Berger we amazing! All fears were completely gone and we felt comfort in knowing we did make the right decision!! Dr. B told us with our age, we were both 27 at the time of the TR, we should be pregnant within the first year of TR. Boy was he wrong! I’m sure I’m not the only one to say that; and not in a bad way! We got our first positive home pregnancy test just after one “cycle” after TR, yep, within the first month (Feb. 2007)!!! We were so excited! Although it ended in miscarriage (March 2007), I found comfort in knowing that “WE CAN GET PREGNANT!” The following month, we found out we got a gift from the Easter Bunny too, April 7, 2007 we got our 2nd positive home pregnancy test. Again it ended in miscarriage (end of April 2007), being I try my hardest to find the positive in all things, I dealt with another loss knowing BOTH TUBES ARE OPEN. It was time we took a break from our TTC bus and allow my body to heal from TR and 2 miscarriages.
In August of 2007 we decided it was time to start our TTC journey once again! After a few short months of TTC we found out we again were pregnant!! November 4, 2007 was our lucky day, we got our 3rd positive home pregnancy test!! Trying not to get too excited was probably the only problem I had at the beginning of our pregnancy! We saw our baby’s heart beat at 8 weeks and 2 days and there it was.
