Anyone else expecting AF tomorrow/in a few days' time, and hoping she doesn't show up?

Gosh, AF is due tomorrow and I'm so hoping and praying hard that she doesn't arrive. I monitor my bbt very closely and AF always arrive on the same day of a bbt drop in the morning. I have been stressing every morning these few days waiting to take my thermometer reading. I even dream about taking my bbt and seeing it go down before I wake up! My husband will never understand the emotions I'm going through, so I'm hoping I can find some support with you girls out there, and we can encourage one another!
So far I'm having those typical symptoms that can be either PMS or pregnancy ones. I don't even dare to get my hopes up. Why do the wait and anticipation have to be sooooo hard?

Honey I'm so sorry to hear that. Wish I could be there to hold your hand right now. *Hugs*
But like coffeebuzzedliz said, and plenty of testimonies I have read, it is still possible to conceive with endo. Keep your head up. I know you must be feeling hopeless, as I have lost hope too. But we just have to keep hoping and trying, though it is not easy at all!
Do update us. Give you a big hug again....

thank you, any experiences of others definately helps. They told me the same thing.. "varying degrees of bad". They suspect it is a moderate case and that my chances for a natural pregnancy are between 30-50% but I wont know for sure until I have the hysterosalponography done, then they will probably put me on some infertility drugs as long as both of my tubes are not blocked. At least Im starting to get answers so oddly enough at least I am not crazy. Do you have ridiculously painful periods like I do?? Mine are sooo bad (and progressively getting worse) that I am on a narcotic during my period and spend the first two days in total pain, including my back. Its terrible but like I said, at least there is an answer for why now. That gives me some power. Now its just going to make my mind spin until this procedure is over!! I am praying that it is not a bad case and that the treatments will help me become the mother I so very badly want to be!

Good luck and baby dust to you all!

First off, wanted to say sorry you are going through this and I hope everything turns our OK for you. At this point I would say try not to stress and wait to see what the tests they do say. I have Endo. but am able to get pregnant on my own (so far), I think there are different levels as far as some who can still get pregnant on their own, those who cant. My Dr. has told me I don't have it that bad? not really sure what that means but that is what he told me. I recently had to have a D&C and am waiting for the lab results to see if we can figure out the case, but I have also had a full term healthy pregnancy.
Try to be as calm as you can through this since the anger and stress will only make it more difficult to get pregnant. I wish you the best of luck~

Ladies, I need your help. I had my appt today and I expected them to tell me that everything was fine and that we should just keep trying.. well, that didnt happen. They told me that they suspect that I have endometriosis and that it will be very difficult to concieve. I am going to see an infertility specialist in 3 weeks for a consult. They want to inject dye into my tubes so that they can see how badly they are blocked and what my chances are and if IVF will be possible. I cannot remember a time in my life where I have felt so numb, in shock, terrified, and angry. If there is a God then he knows that my life goal was to become a mother, why would he do this to me?! I am beyond devistated right now and I dont know what to do with myself! On one hand, maybe only one tube is blocked and I can start some treatments and concieve, or they both are blocked but my eggs are viable and IVF is possible... but im still so upset! I didnt want it to be this way, I just want a family of my own... I hope there is more luck for you ladies, I am in despirate need of a positive outlook.

CD7 for me today. Last cycle my bbt was all over the place (maybe its because I was travelling, to a different time zone) and I was sure I didn't O. But AF came right on time! How annoying!
A church friend just told me she's expecting. And she isn't even trying at all! Married for less than a year, not even thought about children yet! I'm thrilled for her but I'm so mad at my situation! Why am I so useless???
O, and my cousin gave birth to her second child last week. How nice for everybody!
