My daughter was diagnosed with BPI and is now 2. For the last year and some change we have been trying to get pregnant again and are unsuccessful. Now the Dr can't find one of my ovaries. Any MOM'S out there suffer from injury during the birth or having the same problem?

I had a second daughter 3 years after my first bpi, and had a c-section, and she is fine. I wanted my tubes tied since I felt almost selfish for having another child and the doc said one of my ovaries was gone too! It is so strange. I don't think it has anything to do with the injury but who knows???? I didn't seem to have any problems with fertility though. Good luck and god bless your family!

Well we had been trying to get pregnant for 3 years after my daughter who is 4 now. We even came to the point that we were considering fertility drugs. I have what is called polycystic ovaries. I am also postive that I am missing my right ovary do to a removal of a cyst. Ovary can sometimes die or wither up. I am not sure what the cause of that is. But I am hear to tell you that I am almost 6 months preg. Email me privately I can tell you more. nicki@g2a.net

I'm on the opposite end. The week before Melanie turned 1, I found out I was pregnant with Matthew. It definately wasn't a planned thing. It took 8 months of trying to get preg w/Melanie. About a month before she turned one we decided to start trying at the end of the year but we never got there.
Have you tried going to a specialist?
