Dear all,

I wanted to share some good news with the intention of giving others hope rather than triggering or upsetting anyone.

After an endometriosis stage 4 diagnosis, several surgeries, a serious abscess infection, loss of both tubes, and 2 IVF cycles we are finally pregnant. It's been a huge emotional and physical rollercoaster that we have been on and we are still in a state of disbelief that we are fortunate enough to be pregnant after all the pain and heartache we endured.

I am happy to share anything about my journey with you, please get in touch as I would love to be a support to you they way others were for me in my darkest hours.

That is wonderful to hear. I am still getting diagnosed. Have a app at the hospital next week.

Hubby and I have been trying for over 2 years to have baby.

It is really emotional the whole process. It’s just lovely to hear there is hope.

I can remember well all the feelings of where you are now, it never really leaves you. After all the things that kept going wrong for me I was really feeling like I will never have children. The only thing that kept me going was hearing from people in very similar situations who had succeeded against all odds. It gave me hope and although its not something I maintained every day, I would go round in big circles and come back to it. There was hope and possibilities. It took me a long time to accept IVF was our route to a child, but now I am so grateful that this exists otherwise there would be no chance for me.

Hi, sorry for everything you're going through, can totally relate to the surgeries and waiting. Really hope you get referred and started on your treatment soon. It can be really daunting but if you've gone through all those surgeries, recovery, emotional and physical trauma, IVF is not so awful. Just ask lots of questions and at any time if anything feels wrong make sure raise it.

Glad my positive news is helping others and giving hope.x
