Living with Endometriosis

Living with Endometriosis | Caroline Hawkridge

I choose my username because for 32 years I have been a Warrior fighting a horrible disease I would not wish on my worst enemies. Because of this disease I was never able to physically carry a child of my own. Don't get me wrong I am truly grateful for my two boys and how they came into my life but somedays I get depressed because I did not carry them. #Stage4warrior #littenswanttoknow

BethM I will say that not everyone bonds by carrying. I love my son to death but my pregnancy experience (which was not super awesome) is very disconnected from my love and feelings for him. At the time I felt broken bc I think the myth is that everyone bonds with their baby when they‘re pregnant. ❤️ 2y

Endowarrior21 @BethM I understand not everyone bonds while pregnant but I get depressed because I never got feel a baby move inside me. I only made it to 14 weeks ever so I wish I was not denied that. I am truly grateful everyday for my boys and I am honored to be their mommy. 2y

I am 1 in 10. I have Stage 4 Endometriosis. I am 1 in 176 million women who are fighting this horrific disease everyday. I am 1 in 50,000 to have a hysterectomy to help with the pain. There is NO cure for Endometriosis and up till last year Endometriosis was a hush hush topic. I am a survivor, warrior, daughter, sister, and wife. I will never give up my fight. #fightlikeagirl #1in10 #Endomethriosisawarness
