maybe a phantom pregnancy, or maybe you should go for a proper blood test rather than just the pee ones!!!

Why on earth were you sterilised, as according to your profile you've just turned 22?


Try Rennies. ;)
 
I'm 25 and have been told that I can't be sterilised till I'm older - I want your doctor!

Garinda - you are never too young to decide that you don't want to be an 'earth mother' running after a football teamsworth of brats!:)
 
Doesn't sound too good anyhow. Get yoursen to the Quacks girl, pronto.
 
mmm is it just me or has Carl now become a girls name :confused:


If one of them pregnancy tests is positive and you drop a sprog your in for a fortune mate, first man to give birth ............. and we all know it would be your first and last, you wouldn't be able to go through that again ;) !!
 
I thought Carl was a he when he joined but maybe it's a case of Carl isn't her real name like Wynonie Harris (who I didn't think was a woman like some did because the original Wynonie Harris was a man)

You can get pregnant after being sterilised, there is a 1 in 1000 failure rate. If you were sterilised during your last caesarian section then it may be more likely to fail than if you waited 6-8 weeks before having the procedure done.

If you get no joy from your GP then either telephone the secretary for your consultant who looked after you during your sterilisation and get an appointment with the consultant, or make an appointment to see the midwife at your GP surgery.

Your backache may well be caused by the fact that you have had children, especially if you had a twin pregnancy. It does take a long time for your body to get over having babies, which is why we don't recommend that people have consecutive pregnancies without at least 12-24 months rest in between.

Hope you find out what the problem is soon.....:D
 
iv managedto get hold of my consultant and ive got to ring her today to make an appointment hopefully ill get better luck with her and hopefully im not and if im not im planning on gettingit reversed if i can i know its not what they normaly do but ive read up on this andin some cases thay have reversed it like eg if you get a lot ofproblems in it but if id of known all what ive read up on i would not of had it done i mean theyshouldtell you this before you go for the op iv now gone up a size in jeans i was arriganaly a size 10 now im goin to a size 14 i onlyever whenthat big with the twins
 
Glad thats sorted, and that you're Carl's girl friend.

Images of Charles Hawtrey and his phantom pregnancy in 'Carry On' have been wiped from my mind.

Hope you get it sorted, and feel better soon. :)
 
I've never known weight gain to be a known side effect of sterilisation. Margaret Pilkington will know for certain. All they do with a sterilisation during Caesarian is put a clip on each fallopian tube. They don't remove anything or do anything to alter your hormone levels in any way, so therefore weight gain should not be a side effect. I know plenty of people who have been sterilised in this way and not gained weight because there is no medical reason to. Like I said, Margaret will know, try sending her a pm.:D I have also looked after plenty of people who have become pregnant after sterilisation, although they do tell you that there is a small failure rate prior to the op.

Good luck getting an appointment, I hope that they get to the bottom of your problem soon. Let us know how you get on.

i think its affecting your spelling as well.
 
Weight gain is not a side effect of sterilisation. It may just be a side effect of the craving for pudding and custard.
And lettie I don't want to quibble with your statistics but we always told our ladies that there was a 1 in 300 chance of failure......regardless of how the operation is done or who does the operation.
I would think that if the last period was 31st of March it would be rather early to be feeling a baby move.......13 weeks......I know you have previous pregnancies, that does sometimes make a difference in when you feel the baby move.
You really need a BetaHcg blood test.
 
I have looked after a FEW women who have unfortunately become pregnant after sterilization.......but I have to say it wasn't as many as the statistics predict.
One lady had been sterilized for over 10 years when she found herself pregnant......it all turned out happily though as she had a new partner who had no children.
 
Good grief, is the failure rate as high as 1 in 300..... They still tell us at uni that it's 1 in 1000. I have known loads who have got pregnant after sterilisation and go on to deliver. The thing that most of them have in common is that they are sterilised either at C section or immediately post partum instead of waiting a couple of months. The reasons for this are either they would be pregnant again within a few weeks of having their baby or they don't wish their family (sometimes including partner) to know they are being sterilised.

One lass who I looked after a few years ago got pregnant after both herself and her partner had been sterilised. Unlucky or what!!!! :D
