Guest guest Posted September 12, 2004 Report Share Posted September 12, 2004 Hi to all, A quick introduction I am Ruth (29) in Scotland UK my husband Don (34) and I have been trying for a baby for 4 years. We were diagnosed early on with my husband having no sperm and we started fertility treatment using donor sperm insemination. Long story short we had 7 treatments with me having increasing amounts of fertility meds. All my tests results showed no problems, I ovulate, my hormones are perfect but no pregnancy. Our fertility doctor sat us down and said basically the only problem left was my weight at that time 312 lbs. He said we could not move the the next step for treatment which was IVF till I lost at least 110lbs. So after some soul searching and my sister having RNY and doing brilliant this always very overweight lady had her RNY on the 17th August this year. I am now 4 weeks post op and already my mind is straying back to the hope of future pregnancy. We are taking at least 12 months off from our fertility clinic till we go back for more treatment but I am keen to join a group like this and get myself educated and some support. I am very interested in hearing others stories and am looking forward to getting to know you all better. Ruthx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
