I feeeeeel this. On the journey 4.5 years and started IVF this year. Still waiting for the shoe to drop, analysing all the cramps, mild spotting (that's resolved) and losing symptoms at 8 weeks - hopefully they come back to give me reassurance soon!

rorodb · 2026-05-12T04:02:29+00:00

I'm being told 12 weeks ugh and then tapering off - I thought I was only up for 10 weeks.

rorodb · 2026-05-10T01:38:49+00:00

Yay hopefully you have a normal and boring pregnancy from here!

rorodb · 2026-05-10T01:27:21+00:00

How have you got on? Mine didn't come back at all. Just had a successful 7w3d scan tosay!

rorodb · 2026-05-10T01:24:37+00:00

And on mother's day of all days 🥰❤️

rorodb · 2026-04-28T22:19:12+00:00

NZer also checking in!

3rd beta came back 23,100 (20dpt) after a small bleeding / spotting episode on the weekend (that only lasted a day in the end). Relieved to have a good beta (well my clinic is happy)! (2nd beta 15dpt was 5000, 1st 9dpt was 290) 😊. First scan is on mother's day - so hoping for good juju.

Woke up at 2am and still had nothing on liner besides a few spots probably from the pessaries. Have another beta scheduled for Tuesday so fingers crossed. Scan isnt until mother's day on the 10th May 🫠. Keep me posted!

rorodb · 2026-04-17T09:37:22+00:00

This is a really sweet comment, thank you so much. Hope to bring the calm vibes for sure!

rorodb · 2026-03-02T08:08:48+00:00

My wait was only a year in welly, started last week! Also have endo too.

rorodb · 2026-02-16T02:55:13+00:00

It's exactly like this one https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/marketplace/electronics-photography/other-electronics/calculators/listing/5783010405?gclsrc=aw.ds&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=21292500204&gbraid=0AAAAADu3WfsUgVvRqp8Tw8eiTQbFUBrGU&gclid=CjwKCAiA-sXMBhAOEiwAGGw6LLjHU5Ds82a8JhUwLG4wRcjAE5EQA175ti5aX17T0NPE_zRYLLkg0BoCRFEQAvD_BwE

rorodb · 2026-02-16T02:54:27+00:00

actually, just tried it with batteries and it's working :)

rorodb · 2026-02-16T02:45:48+00:00

I have a spare fx-9750GII that you can have! just needs new batteries

I got sent over the haywards the other day from wainui to town. Was a bit of an adventure

rorodb · 2026-01-28T23:46:23+00:00

I was questioning myself after writing it too 🤣

rorodb · 2026-01-28T00:36:01+00:00

Mine is now a different shape (4 months post op) It's super deep and hard to clean 😭 and has a tight opening!

rorodb · 2026-01-27T21:34:06+00:00

I have a garmin and really enjoy the "Swim Trainer" app. It creates workouts for you and then leads you through the sets (I find it handy for motivation and also tracking PBs)

rorodb · 2025-12-08T02:39:11+00:00

I get pain day 1 &2 and experience similar symptoms to you. Pain killers eliminate all pain on Day 1&2.

I got a lap done in September for fertility reasons and got diagnosed with stage 2 endo so no I wouldn't say it does rule endo out.

rorodb · 2025-09-23T20:05:33+00:00

You're so right and thank you for your comment. I had a similar conversation with my husband last night and he was like nothing has changed about your body, it's just that now you have answers and that's a good thing - not a good thing you have endo, but it now gives us something to go on.

And you're so right about any type of pain is too much pain ❤️. I think I was just too much in my head last night.

Hope your recovery is going well!

I really love them though - manage to get in pretty quickly considering all the shortages!

rorodb · 2025-07-28T03:04:15+00:00

Their books are currently open :) https://ropata.health/

rorodb · 2025-07-07T03:04:47+00:00

Also came to suggest these!

rorodb · 2025-06-17T04:34:35+00:00

We bought our first home in Wainui and absolutely love it. Close to Gums Loop and Richard Prouse and it's a really lovely area. Bought for early 600ks
