Comments? I had surgery three weeks before and had a GA and lots of morphine and codeine etc, but also antibiotics. I had a few slip ups over diet this months as went to two festivals and a hen night and drank lots of beer! I really felt run down this month and the lack of ewcm made me think I def wouldn't conceive.
I have been trying and swaying hard core for ages with endo which has been difficult to say the least.
This month I had relaxed a lot on my diet as I had given up hope of ever having a baby let alone a girl. Maybe thats why I got pregnant because I was starting to not care about the girl thing.
Now I'm second guessing everything and it's doing my head in. I know this is another boy and I'm blessed to be pregnant but its still hard to get my head around.
