Pulling up a chair...

Hi y'all, I'm Laura! I'm just a girl from the south. I'm a wife, RN and mama to the most adorable Labrador and mini doixie. 
Anyway...I'm newish here, but I feel like this board is a good fit for me. I've lurked around for about a week and have even commented on a couple of posts over the last several days. (I noticed when a couple of you tried to tag me, that I needed a username change. It was the untaggable N+2015)
I didn't want to intro until tonight because today was my u/s and appointment to confirm that my very recent natural m/c is complete. My husband and I were given the official "go ahead" to TTC now.
My sister has been going through IUIs and several other treatments to help her conceive, so I know this next part will be a sensitive topic. I'm not trying to hurt anyone, I'm just letting y'all get to know me a little better...My husband and I weren't trying when we got our BFP. We're both youngish (see siggy), but have been married for 3 years -together for 7. We were "planning" for kids in about 3 more years. That's the timeframe we've always agreed on. Then I became pregnant. It was unplanned, but oh so wanted. I can only hope that in the 8 weeks I was pregnant, he/she somehow knew how much we loved (and still love) him/her. I'm a big fan of positivity and finding the silver lining. So for us, the silver lining is that out of our sad loss came the clarity that we are ready now.
So here I am, pulling up a chair here with REAL non decaf coffee (silver lining)...I hate that this happened to my husband and I. I hate that a loss happened to all of you as well. Even though I've only recently been lurking, I already can tell y'all are such a wonderful, strong, and inspirational group of ladies. I hope I can bring some comfort and smiles! ....annnnnd now I'm going to stop typing before this post goes way past TL;DR.
Edited: because siggy, not soggy.
