Name: Rhonda N.
Location: Kaiser Missouri
Date of Tubal Reversal: Mar 23 2005
Date of Pregnancy Test: Apr 06 other
Due Date: Nov 22 2006
Remarks: I should have had a period on March 18th. I start bleeding on the 24th of March. I bled for 6 days like a period. I started spotting again on the 4th of April and had moderately heavy bleeding on the 5th and 6th. I did two home pregnancy tests, one on the 27th of March and another on the 5th of April. Both were negative. I am having lower left abdomenal pain and lower left back pain. I have had a blood pregnancy test which came back positive with a HCG of 20 on April 5th. April 6th, I went to the ER for an ultrasound but they said it was to soon. They took blood and another HCG although they calculate it differently (HCG 12), the OB Doctor wants me to wait until Monday to get another HCG test and make an appointment to see him next week. Please alert Dr. Berger with this information. Thank you, Rhonda

Remarks: My AF isn't due until 4-11-06. The hpt's are light. I did go to the lab tonight and have a blood draw. I will get the numbers and another blood draw on Monday.

Location: Canton Georgia
Date of Tubal Reversal: Sep 27 2004
Date of Pregnancy Test: Apr 06 2006
Due Date: Dec 02 2006
Remarks: I am so stunned I couldn't even fill out the phone numbers on this form for you - couldn't remember them without looking them up!! Can you believe it? I will be FORTY (40) years old this month!! What an incredible birthday present (ok, if you ignore the fact that I've already started gaining weight and I have such bad heartburn and morning sickness I am filling this out at 4 AM!) Here is our story: In 1990 I had a tubal ligation after my second son was born. I was divorced in 1992 and thought, "Ok, time to move on to the next phase of my life". 5 years later I met my husband now whom I dated for 7 years (I was a little doubtful about the whole marriage thing!) I never dreamed we would have a child together, but on September 27, 2004, we made the journey to Chapel Hill and Dr Berger restored my tubes for us. Of course, I never dreamed it would take us a while to "hit the mark", but 17 months later here we are - PREGNANT!! Don't know where the little sucker is or if he'll stick where he's at, but praise the Lord! Dr Berger made me whole again - and my little eggs, hobbling on their walkers, are marching through those tubes once again! Don't give up - Don't give up - Don't give up - yes, it took us such a long time for that first BFP, but oh how sweet it is!! Praise the Lord! Thank you, Dr. Berger. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. The look on my husband's face right now is just priceless (ok, not at this very moment because he's asleep and snoring, but earlier this evening he looked like a cat who just ate the family gerbil!) THANK YOU! Now, I'll be calling our doctor here to make sure all the numbers rise properly. Much love and our deepest gratitude, Tim and Amy F. (They don't know we are pregnant yet, but our teenagers will thank you some day also!)

Remarks: I was late the morning we were leaving for vacation by 3-4 days and had the 2 o'clock nausea for the last week I was more worried about the horse back riding I had scheduled. So I took a test: Positive! Took another when I was 10 days late: Positive also. Now we are home from vacation and I promise to call first thing in the morning. We just moved to Phoenix so bear with me; they may make me go through a primary provider first..... prayers would be helpful.....Thanks Lesliy
