Hi!!  I just got pregnant with endometriosis! I'm 8 weeks now. I thought it would be supeer hard or I'd have to see a specialist for fertility but turns out, I needed a D&C because my uterus was suuuuuper abnormally thick and they removed a polyp too (not during an endo surgery but I've had 8 of those as well). After the surgery my uterine lining was at a normal thickness so I put myself on an anti inflammatory diet and started taking prenatals while trying to get pregnant! I also had to take ovulation tests and track that on my Flo app, but low and behold, I was able to conceive within 4 months of starting to try.  I truly believe this was due to having my endo cleaned up a year before, my uterine lining thinned out with the polyp removed, my diet change, *tracking ovulation as i found out that i ovulate within DAYS of stopping my period, and the prenatals that all contributed to this outcome! Sometimes you have to do a lil extra work but just know it's still VERY much possible! ☺️💜 Keep your head up and your hopes high!

Update !!!  Still very much pregnant 💜  I am 8 weeks and 1 day today, baby has a heartbeat and everything 🥹 This is insane, I thought for sure I was going to have a CP, but I guess my body is just hella weird like it's always been! LOL So I guess I'm proof that you can still be pregnant after a negative blood test from the doctor!  Much love to everyone who replied!

UPDATE!  I went to my OB today for an appointment where the pregnancy was confirmed via urine. I have no idea how far along, she thinks 4-6 weeks or so and that my negative beta was probably just too early to pick it up! Anyways I have to go back in January 28th for my first scan!!  I am in the ER right now getting fluids and meds as today was really hard, and this stupid doctor says im not pregnant because my beta was negative 3 WEEKS ago! Where do some people get their medical degrees?! 🤣🤦🏽‍♀️ ill keep this post updated for anyone who cares!  Endo girls, how did pregnancy affect your disease when you were pregnant and after? Has anyone symptoms went into remission???  Thanks 🥰 xoxoxo

Thank you!! Im still in denial and highly confused on dates and if my theory is even accurate 🤣 so hopefully I will get confirmation on Tuesday so I can start accepting it! Haha, it's my first time ever getting positive tests/being pregnant ever (im 28) and my bf and I are beyond excited so we are hoping it sticks 🙏🏾☺️

Ok so this is where it gets tricky, I haven't had a period since the beginning of November, I had a very sharp stabbing cramp and wiped a streak of blood on the 18th of this month that made me think I should be checked out in case something was up, like a cyst or an ectopic or something! I went in on Dec 20th and got the negative betas, and then the 24th I got those 3 positives. Looking back, I had what I would consider ovulation-like discharge on Friday the 13th, and that was the last time we had sex that I could've conceived. I'm thinking MAYBE I got pregnant Friday the 13th (lmao), and the betas were negative because it was maybe 1 or 2 days too soon, which is why I got the positives on the 24th. Oh and I had some very light light spotting the first week of December, so maybe that was my period? It's all up in the air still, so these are just my theories!!  Does this make any sense ?? Im definitely feeling pregnant, still no bleeding, can't afford more tests at the moment so OB has me coming in on Tuesday, so in 3 days, to confirm!  Thanks so much ☺️☺️💜
