Surgery Date Set

I called on Wednesday to try and talk to my doctor or nurse about setting up my salpingectomy (tube removal). I hadn't heard back, but this morning I got a call from the nurse. The surgeon who performs it has openings every Friday this month. So, on the 11th (next week) I will go in and have my tube removed. I am very nervous, but also super excited at the realization that after this, we *should* be able to have a baby. Of course, there are no guarantees, but at least the odds will be much more in our favor!

I don't know how long I'll have to wait afterwards to ttc again. We have a pre-op meeting next week, so I imagine I'll find out then.

I'm so nervous...the only surgery I've ever had is having my wisdom teeth removed.

  1. But maybe you're pregnant right now. (Thinking positively.)

  2. Thanks for the positive thoughts! I took a test last night and it was negative. I'm not really buying that I've already ovulated either...my cervix is doing all sorts of weird things and my temp just really isn't where I would expect it to be. I have my pre-op tomorrow and they will do a blood test to be sure, and I'll test Friday morning before surgery, too. It would be a nice surprise, though, huh? ;)
