TTC with endometriosis

Alecia • TTC since 2012. Endometriosis diagnosed 2003

I have endometriosis and have had 3 surgeries. The doctor said it's unsafe to perform any more on me and if my pain gets too bad a hysterectomy will need to be done. So now we're in crunch time and I feel even more pressured to have one.

My husband has been so supportive. Even when I turned into the devil because I felt like less of a woman. He assured me that he loved me no matter what and if we can't conceive then we'll adopt.

After over 2 years of trying, and tears every month it didn't happen, I'm starting to think it never will.

Now every time I'm the slightest late I get really excited followed by a black hole of disappointment when it turns out I was only late.

I'm at that place again now. I was supposed to start 12 days ago! I tested the first day I was late and it was negative but I think maybe it was too early? I've been late before but had signs it was going to start (normal cramping, moodiness, bloating). I'm scared to test again because I don't want to be let down but honestly I don't feel like my period is coming. (No cramps, and the usual).

I feel like I have other signs, like my areola is darker, my abdomen feels more firm, I've been running a higher than normal temp, had heartburn (very unusual for me), been very very fatigued. I just don't know if I'm making all this up being hopeful or if I'm really preg! I plan on testing again later this week. And if it doesn't come by Saturday (two weeks late) I'm making a doctor appointment. Fingers crossed that I am!

Has anyone else had problems with endometriosis? Suggestions that work?
