Hi Kris I'm almost 32 and still don't know if I can have children, but my doubts get the better of me - we've been without protection almost five years. Some days I feel incredibly sad, and get very emotional when I see little babies and wonder if I'll ever hold my child. Some days aren't so bad. I've read alot of posts on here of people who got pregnant with endo or people who supposedly were unablt to have children; I've also heard many such happy stories from friends and coworkers - this gives me hope. I've been taking an antidepressant for about 3 months now and its helped alot - but I still have some pretty rough times, especially being that in my job I work with neglected and abused children. Hang in there, and please feel free to e-mail me privately anytime --- you or anyone else on the forum Amy
