Don't you dare start feeling that way. The # of kids you have has nothing to do with it. You write that letter with conviction girl! :)

Any ideas on how to word it? xx

Sorry to hear that :(

I know it's iike 6 small meals. just makes this all even scarier I guess but there are worse things. GL on the name picking. We are stil working on a middle name and now DH is reconsidering the 1st name. I just want a name. I told him I've been calling her Carrigan and he better come up w/ something new a =nd quick. I think he"ll stick w/ Carrigan though. I like it..

Carrigan is nice, I hope he just settles with that! Yeah only 3 months left so the whole diet thing will be over with before you know it!

So what if you already have 4? Maybe you could talk to a lawyer first to see where you can go with it?

I can't afford a lawyer :(

Flava, good to hear from you!

Cinss, good luck testing tomorrow :)

5, did you find any info on reversal? And it doesn't matter if you have none or 20 children, it is your right to choose how many children you want, no one elses. I agree with Hobber, they will have to follow it up and if they don't then you just go higher up.

Yahmama, my last cycle was a chemical too so we're in the same situation. They say you are extra fertile the month following so fingers crossed for both of us. I know it's meant to sway girl as well but I actually don't really care anymore.

I will definately write a letter. Just unsure of how to word it all, right now..

I would just go with the facts... You've been TTC for a while now. Recently in conversation with your doctor it was brought to your attention that the coiling/embolisation may have made you infertile. You were never told that the procedure carried that risk and would have delayed having it done until you had finished having children. I don't even think you need to mention in your letter that you have 4 children already, it is totally irrelevant.

I agree with Bec, well said.
