This was a blog of my thoughts and feelings as I was trying for a baby. I have endometriosis as well as a few other medical conditions so TTC was a battle. I was on the TTC journey for 4 years and had 3 failed IVFs and 3 failed FETs. The next step was adoption! I am now a mum to a beautiful 3 year old girl call M and feel so lucky!

My poor arm!
Here a picture of my arm 5 days after being bitten by the dog!! The bruising is massive and still very painfull!!!
OMG- how very painful. You totally should submit this to Mel's Show and Tell!! :) Did you ever get your tetanus shot? Why would they not give it to you before? Craziness. Are you on any antibiotics? I hope you get better soon!!!
Hey, I just came across your blog.I'm also TTC.I hope your surgery goes well I've had 4 laps due to Endometriosis.Any reason your having the lap done..is it due to pain with endo? or is it for the TTC part? I wish you the best of luck and feel free to check out my blog or comment back.It's always so nice to have friends to talk to when your going through this.
Please update your blog after surgery(When you are feeling better of course).When was your last surgery for endo? I don't know if I'll have another surgery anytime soon.I really pray I am done with surgery for awhile,I had 4 of so close together(which i know isn't good) but the pain was crazy and I could bare it,I'm not sure if my surgery did any good since I'm still having so much trouble. take care and best of luck!
I am 28, have grade IV endometriosis, hypothyroidism and desperately want a baby. I suppressed my ovaries for 6 months and had a third laparoscopy. I had my first IVF cycle July 2010 and we transferred two embryo's. Sadly it ended in a BFN. I did a FET with two 5 days blastocysts in September and that was also a BFN. I did a second fresh IVF in January which was also a BFN. We did a second FET with 2 5 day blastocysts. Also a BFFN. Last go on the NHS :( Immunes show I have high NK cells. IVF #3 with intralipids was also a BFN. FET#3 will be with intralipids and steriods and baseline was booked for 24th April. This was also a BFN. One embryo left in freezer - last ever FET will be FET #4 - embryo did not survive the thaw. Moving on to adoption.
I desperately want a baby and a family, but for now we have 2 rescue fur babies!
Ouch!
