Jennifer, I have heard several different variations of "it is never the right time to have a baby". If you are emotionally ready to be a parent, then this is true. There is never enough money!! No matter what your financial situation, there is always something more you want to give your child. I have a friend, a single mom who makes a comfortable middle class living...her son has everything he needs, but my friend wants to send him to private school. Something she can't quite afford.

As far as the endo goes...everyone is different, but I will tell you what happened to me. I waited until I thought the timing was right. I spent two years and all of my savings trying to get pregnant, with no success. I am now 32 years old, have no children and had a complete hysterectomy nine weeks ago. I morn the children I was not able to have. As I said, everyone is different, but keep in mind that sometimes later becomes never.

Please, email me directly if you want to talk.
