I Have a Problem!!!! I Need Help!!!

Not to scare you to death, but I have an aunt who was born after my grandmother had her tubes tied. Best of luck.

Dear K.,

Unfortunately, you still can get pregnant. There are some cases where the tubes actually heal back together. This actually happened to my friend. She had twins and had hers tied and then about a year or two later she was pregnant again.

hey K.,

I am 40 yrs old and got my tubes tied when my son was born just before I turned 30 and got pregnant 3 times after that, ended up getting a histerectomy because of it so I would suggest talking to your doctor to see what you should do...

J.

ps you can write me anytime if you have any questions, really you can...

I had my tubes cut, tied & burnt Jan. 2003, since then I've gotten pregnant twice, each time an ectopic pregnancy & each time ending in m/c at 6 weeks. you need to get checked by a dr. immediately, if its an ectopic pregnancy you don't have the ability to wait a couple months like you might with regular pregnancies. much better safe then sorry.

Call your doctor. Call and talk with your OB/Gyn's nurse. She will be able to give you some advice on what you may want to do. There is still some chance of getting pregnant after you gets your tubes tied...but it is rare. You can also have a tubal pregnancy which can be dangerous...contact your DR, no chances that way of missing something important.

It is possible to get pregnant after having your tubes tied. My mother had her tubes tied and burnt after have my twin brother and sister. 11 years later she got pregnant again. The doctor's were worried about a tubal pregnancy, but every thing turned out fine. I now have a healthy, if not spoiled, sister who is 18 years younger than I am. I hope everything works out for you too! Good Luck.

Did they take a pregnancy test before you had your tubes tied...they didn't on mine and I was pregnant. Thank goodness everything turned out fine - had a beautiful baby girl after 5 miscarriages.

I found several accounts of this online. I just started looking into it and they warned me this could happen. So run to the doctor. Better safe than sorry!!

K.,

First of all calm down. Second the only way that I know of for you to get pregnant this early from having your tubes tied is to already be pregnant when they were tied. But it has happened to other people that I have heard of. Please call your doctor and get checked out. You could have other problems if indeed you are not pregnant. Like I said other women have gotten pregnant with their tubes tied just like other women have gotten pregnant when their husbands have had a vascetomy done. Nothing is a sure grantee unless you do not have sex at all. Again I stress to go see your doctor.
Good luck.

hi K.. i have mine done too and i remember them telling me that there is still a very small chance of getting pregnant, but that it would most likely be an ectopic pregnancy (tubal pregnancy) which can be dangerous. have you taken a pregnancy test? i would start there. when did you get your tubes tied? if it was recent, maybe you are having a reaction to that? i would start with a home preg. test and then go see a doctor. it may or may not be something serious. sorry, don't mean to scare you, just being safe!

I would recommend going to your doc for a blood preg test...and then talking to him/her about this issue.

Hope all goes the way you want it to.

Hello,

I have never had experience with this, but I can tell you that ANYTHING is possible and NOTHING is %100. I would recommend to get a pregnancy test from the dollar store(before spending $8 or more on the in-store ones)...I took the dollar store test before buying the EPT at the drugstore and all three came out positive and I was pregnant all 3 times...of course after the cheap one came back positive I got the EPT from the drugstore and confirmed it...I am a mother of 3(ages 3-oct 13th, 2-Oct 19, and 7 months) and just had an IUD put in about 2 months ago and I couldn't imagine becoming pregnant after thinking you can't anymore...I worked in the ER at Fort Bragg, NC and had come across at least one lady who had her tubes tied and got pregnant...Hope everything works out okay for you.

Good Luck, Nickie

For peace of mind, get a test or go get a blood test done at the doctor's office. May make you feel better about the whole thing instead of continuously wondering!

Hi K.,
That is unusual being 3 weeks late. Have you been under a lot of stress lately? You know stress is like that it can do weird things to your body. I would just follow up with your doctor.

Not to get off the subject but I want to go back to school and was thinking about online classes. Medical coding & billing sounds interesting can you tell me about It? I Work full time as a Tech at Audubon Hospital and thought this would be great to do from home. Thanks and I hope everything works out for you :)

I have not had this happen tp me but I know someone who has. The procedure is not 100%, at least that is wht my doc has told me. I would take a prego test to make sure.

I could introduce you to my 2 nephews both conceived after their mothers tubes were tied. Tied can come undone, cut and "burned" is irreversible. However, to be on the safe side, get to the dr. and make sure its not a tubal pregnancy.

I don't have my tubes tied but from other ladies I know that have says its normal, but I will always ask the advise from the Doctor. also, I want to start taking some on-line classes next year after I have my baby (due in Jan.). I was wondering about the Medical Coding & Billing. Let me know.
thx,

It is not full proof but chances are if you are pg it is a tubal. I'd get checked ASAP!!! I hope for emotional sake you are not b/c even though there is nothing you can do about a tubal but terminate, it still has to be devestating!

I've heard of this happening before....
From you profile about yuorself it sounds like we have a lot in common! A lot onour plates for one! I'd really like to meet other mommies too!
