>ALyson,

I have a few friends here but the problem with the coast guard is that with what my husband does we are never at a CG base so the usual support system is not there. My hubby is going to try and take some time off, but my girls are definitely mommies girls and I dont know how they will take to not being with me constantly. I am going to a reproductive endocrinologist with 30 yrs exp. (my gyn looked at my prior surgery reports and said it was to much for her to handle). I figure if anyone can fix it she can. I am 33 and I have a 10yr of with down syndrome and a 2 year old so I think I am done having kids which is a plus. I just hope it is not as bad this time and that I dont have to follow with drug therapy. Thanks for the good luck wishes. Tracy
