Can I join here? Intro *losses mentioned*

in Trouble TTC
Hi gals!
I have been lurking on and off these boards for a few years when I began the process of TTC. I was going to ask to join the infertility board, but DH and are are not doing IVF again just yet and it seems that place is mainly for active IVF girls.

History:
Had 2 failed IUI's and IVF's in 2012. Had a shocking natural pregnancy in Jan 2013, which ended with a loss in March 2013. Changed RE's, had a failed FET and then a FET that worked in Sept. 2013, but resulted in a loss again. Had RPL done and found out I have mild PCOS (IR, not cystic ovaries) So since being on metformin, I am hoping my levels will even out and we can just revert to good ol climid, injects, and IUI (wishful thinking, old fashioned baby dancing maybe?)

That said, had my IUI today (feels so weird backpedaling, but anything can happen right?) and am in the dreaded tww.

I want to make my siggy all cute with pictures and badges. Is there a tutorial?
Can I please join?
:)

    I am hoping so too! I am doing acupuncture too (which I truly believed helped my last FET work) so hopefully the combo will do the trick. If not, we'll try, try again :)
