I am back blogging after a busy year, I am sorry for the absence!

In July 2022 I gave birth to a beautiful baby boy.

This blog will now be dedicated to being a parent and coping with my endometriosis on a daily basis. I will not be offended if this results in people unfollowing me as I know this can be upsetting and triggering to most people that follow me, I completely understand this and just wanted to give you a little warning and time for you to unfollow me. I appreciate every single one of you and I hope you know this 💛

Thank you so much for being there throughout my journey 💛

Hello guys I am so sorry I have been away for so long, but it’s been a busy few months! Mid November I actually found out that I am pregnant, so it’s been worrying with having a previous miscarriage and having endometriosis. My midwife and the doctors have all been amazing, we’ve seen little moving about on the big screen, it’s all so surreal. I’ve got an appointment with a doctor to talk about delivering the baby because, back in 2018 when I had my laparoscopy the doctors accidentally punctured my womb, this now means that I can not give birth naturally and I probably won’t make it full term, the puncture could cause preterm labour which could obstruct my planned C-section!

But right now we’re in our own little bubble of content and could not be happier!

TRIGGER WARNING: PREGNANCY, MISCARRIAGE

Sorry I've been quite on here recently, I've had an overwhelming few weeks unfortunately.

I had multiple positive pregnancy tests a few weeks ago, it was an exciting few days deciding how we would tell people they were going to be an auntie or grandparents and laughing with Ryan telling him his games room would turn into a nursery. My heart was so full, being a mum and having my own little family is my biggest wish and main goal in life.

Unfortunately I started to get some cramping and then I started bleeding 6 days after the positive results, then those positive results turned into negative results. I was sitting on the toilet bleeding and in pain when I saw all of the empty pregnancy test boxes on the bathroom floor, I just broke down. Things are hard at the moment, but I am stronger than this.

Those 6 days were amazing and I will cherish those moments of excitement, I just wish it had a happy ending.

2 years since my boss made me feel like complete shit 👍

"I know you've got issues and what not" 😂😂😂😂😂

Work

So I called in sick to work today and this was the result!

It’s my 3rd day off as sickness in nearly 2 years working there and my endometriosis is just an issue and what not??!

I work every Tuesday 9am-9pm and I go in to cover shifts, I stay longer and I always help out, and now because I can’t get out of bed there will be an investigation, brilliant 👍👍👍

First cervical smear

I've had plenty of swabs and people looking at my downstairs area(what am I supposed to call it??) So I thought I'd be prepared for my first cervical smear. Hahaha ha no, it hurt like shit, it was super uncomfortable and now my stomach is killing me.

During the process my ovaries were killing me and I was getting really bad period pain, it felt like the nurse was physically stabbing my uterus while she was doing it.

The nurse was lovely and very calm and patient with me. I told her about having endo and being nervous and she told me that she also suffered with endo and knew what it felt like having a smear. She spoke to me calmly the whole way though and was checking I wasn't in any pain.

My stomach is still sore and I can still feel the pressure on my ovaries, but I feel quite relieved to have finally had it done. Now I just need to await my results, fingers crossed.

I need to get back on the depo injection because I really can't handle these periods, but that also means almost a year of not falling pregnant..

I'm so torn, it's killing me
