Hi
This is Sherly 10 years with endo and just 22 years old. there is hope
and miracle in prayers. For us who have endo i think it's difficult to
find sign of pregnancy at first. I didn't have my period for 3 months
and had at least 8 pregnancy test all negative. I did blood test when
finally I decided to have a lap. I was already 10 wks pregnant when the
doc call me to cancel the surgery. Now thanks to my Lord Jesus Christ,
I'm 22 wks pregnant and the baby is healthy. I was told that i had endo
for too long and i couldn't have any kids but now i know that God is
never wrong and never fails. So be patient you might be pregnant but it
is too soon to see your hcg level. and remember do not stress yourself
too much for you might miscarry if you do. I know it's hard but just
try to convince yourself that you're pregnant.
i don't believe in luck but i do know prayers break any barrier.
