TTC baby No2

I know some people might judge me for this but I am currently 9 months pp. Me and my partner want another baby now. The reason being I have adenomyosis and endometriosis. I have been offered surgery to help improve my symptoms as currently they are getting worse every month. However they have said they would not recommend I have it now as I have expressed we want more children and the surgery they have offered they said will significantly affect fertility and cannot guarantee IVF will work after it as well. Obviously this is a really difficult decision for me because I desperately want more kids than anything but living in this constant cycle of heavy bleeding, pain when weeing, pain in my legs it hurts to walk, severe cramps to were I want to rip my insides out. So because of this it is such a difficult decision on whether to do it or not. I would desperately like to try now to at least have one more baby before I consider it but I am not ovulating regularly every month. I suppose my question is will I get help with this being 9 months pp? I have a doctor’s appointment to discuss my condition next week and wondering whether it is worth asking or whether id just be told no or judged or whatever. I don’t want to make my chances worse than they already are but I also do not want to live like this for long. They are prescribing me medications for my symptoms however this is only a short term solution.

When will I actually ovulate?

Yesterday I had a peak which Premom said it was 1.17 and I’ve just taken another one and it’s 1.35. Yesterday it said today would be ovulation and now saying tomorrow is ovulation. Why does ovulation day keep changing I’m super confused. This is my lh test from now. Yesterdays in comments

Remaining embryos from IVF

Our family is complete and exists because of IVF. We have healthy, adorable children and 10 remaining embryos that are all 5AA or 4AA and created a decade ago when I was 27.

We no longer feel the necessity to pay the annual fee to have them stored, especially since the price continues to increase. Started at $300 annually a decade ago and is now $1200 annually. Ouch.

I have prayed, researched and reflected and my body, mind and soul wants to donate them to someone else. I am open to whatever that would look like-- recieving news of a healthy birth, subsequent updates, offering access to our family tree/health/photos, even the idea of finding a way to meet and include the embryos turned human + their parents family if that door ever opened. I'm also okay with never knowing anything. Passing on the gift of life that we struggled to create but because of science was made possible sounds better than donating to research or discarding. My husband isn't sure if he agrees.

How much time should I give him? Our storge renewal fee is coming up in June and seems unnecessary to continue paying that when we could pivot to closing the chapter.
