I am trying to wait patiently to see what my lap scars are going to look like. So far of the 4 pieces of tape only 1 has fallen off. I am suppose to take the other 3 off tomorrow.
But seeing the scar in my belly button has made me wonder: Will my belly buttton not pop out when I get pg? I have heard that if you have your belly button pierced that scar keeps your belly button from popping out. In a moment of good fun and humor with my SIL I told her that I am only trying to get pg so that I can have my belly button pop out and give it a good cleaning. She laughed and said I might as well just give up with all the meds and hardship and deal with the fact that my belly button is going to be dirty for life. We both shared a good laugh. It was nice to have a moment of laughter at my situation and include a "fertile" in it.
I know that them finding endo on my cervix might not fix anything. And I don't really have any more answers for my unexplained IF. But for the time being I have a new sense of hope. And that is something I can honestly say I haven't felt for awhile. There is nothing new and scary infront of me at the moment. Two months of trying at home then back to the clinic to start IUI's again if needed. I have done this all before. I know that I can cope with it. It is a nice place to be. And timing has it so that I don't even need to think about IVF until the new year. That is far enough away that I am going to shift it out of my mind for now.
Is it okay that I stay here on this board even though I am doing my hail mary cycles?

Thank you for letting me stay. I just didn't want to be annoying with questions about POM juice, CM, and having my fertility friend ticker thingy on my status thingy. The "do you think I really O?" questions that are ususally contained to ttgp.
I will try and not be to annoying and still offer lots of support to everyone.
