Pregnant after 35

Intro

Hello everyone

I'm Sarah and I'm 35 and from London UK. This is my first pregnancy and it's taken us a little by surprise but we are both so excited and happy. Turns out we conceived on Christmas day (sorry if that's tmi) and EDD is September 18. Best Christmas present EVER!!!

So I'm currently 5 weeks and 3 days.

    I'm very sensitive to diet (gluten, avoid processed foods) and environment. Have a history of inflammation and tendinitis before going off gluten in 2009.  
    July 2014 - RE Visit #1: Eggs look good, Endometrioma on R ovary, HSG showed blocked R tube close to ovary. DH SA normal 
    DX: Endometriosis probably the IF cause and gunking up tubes.  Since egg reserve is high, RE says I can wait a couple months and then get laproscopic surgery to remove endo & clear tube.  If that doesn't help then move to IVF. 
    Dec 2014 - Saw new RE - does not recommend surgery on tube as it isn't likely to help.  Doubts I have endometriosis.  My endometrioma shrunk to neglible size (yay!) 
    Seriously considering IVF in March/April
