Hopeful.... With endo
So I am two days late and I'm really just praying that I am pregnant. Can it be possible with my boyfriend for over eleven yrs having low sperm count and my horrible endo? I have not even told him yet, b/c I would hate to give him any false hope. I feel as if I'm coming on soon (crampy and all), but I'm rarely late! I usually either am very regular or early. I don't have any prego symptoms, but I'm still just wishing.... I have been extremely stressed lately and know that it can be delayed from stress alone on top of endo. Well years ago I remember times (those rare times) when I wouldn't even be a day late and would run out and take a test. Of course, the results were negative and I'd usually come right on my cycle after doing so! I just wonder can I ever accept no kids?? Sometimes I just feel as if my life is so empty, even with working two jobs! I'm now 32 and still childless! My 32nd bday was a tough one, only because I feel as if I'm running out of time. I literally locked myself in my room and turned off my phn the whole week of my bday. That was bad mainly b/c my bday is around thanksgiving and my family was so worried when I didn't answer that they popped up at my place and when I didn't answer the door.... They called the cops to just make sure I was alive. I really just wanted to sleep my bday away. I was extremely depressed and just tired. One of the biggest issuses endo can bring about is depression. I'm usually a happy person, even with endo! However, this past Yr I've taken a turn mentally for the worst! I joined two gyms in the beginning of 2011 to try to help with the stress, but eventually stopped going. Working out did help with stress, but the closer it came to my bday last Yr the worst I got. I am better, cause I'm able to share this with you guys. Though I know I still have a battle ahead I'm trying to stay strong and positive. I really enjoy my new job teaching at a small college and that has helped me mentally. I really enjoy helping others, I think that's why I crave motherhood. Well hope all is well with everyone else and I am truly blessed to have a group to vent. I am able to share things and know that many would understand in here and I might even help someone along the way.
