DH was not able to be with me at the exact hour I needed the shot. It was scary as heck, but it ended up not hurting as much as I anticipated. <br /><br />I totally don't expect the kiddos to appreciate what we did, since it was our wish to have them. Whatever they do appreciate down the line, we'll have to earn it from them. I'm totally not old-fashioned that way, if you know what I mean. :) Thanks for reading, Lisa!Sandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16187306461239093068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1722828176120073793.post-23776023169099403022013-09-20T22:31:33.414-05:002013-09-20T22:31:33.414-05:00Hi, Laura, can you believe that that was the begin...Hi, Laura, can you believe that that was the beginning of our friendship? Those chat boards from all those years ago?! :) That is awesome that you are pain-free (assuming your are not under any hormone treatments?)! It was pretty apparent that all my old symptoms were coming back after I stopped nursing, so my doctor started treatment again. It's unbelievable, to have quality of life back!

I am mostly pain-free with the endo, since old internal scarring still pulls from time to time. But it is drastically improved from my 20s.

As someone who only got to know you after your kiddos were many years old, I never would have known of your struggles to conceive ... just as you never would have known of Gavin's premature start. It's amazing that modern medicine has helped the two of us become mothers when, during another time, we might have been robbed of such an opportunity.Nilsa @ SoMi Speakshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08474642034399063234noreply@blogger.com
