Introducing Myself

Hi Everybody,

I am new to this board and was hoping to meet and talk to people in a similar situation as myself.  I am married to a wonderful woman and we have a 10 month old little boy.  He's the greatest.  I am hoping to learn what I can do as a parent to make life easy and enjoyable for my son.  I don't want a lack of a father to have a negative effect.  Has anybody else been through this?

I am also TTC again.  Just had my second insem yesterday using 150mg of Clomid and two follies.  Hoping this one will be the one!

I look forward to hanging with all of you on this badass board :)

  • Welcome! Good luck with this round of ttc!

    I don't really ever think of it as my son lacking a father, but rather having a happy home with two parents who love him and each other.

  • Welcome!

     You can't really control how he will react to not having a father.  But you can shower him with lots of love, as he gets older make sure he knows other same-sex families, is in a community and school that accepts his family structure as it is, give him oppurtunities to have strong male role models in his life, and never be ashamed of him having 2 moms.

    Good luck on your next cycle!

    Well, I was trying to quote this and type my own message but it went ahead and submitted just the quote for me...lol. This PP by Mrs._F is exactly how we look at it and I think putting it that way to yourself will help you feel better about it. Positive thoughts! ;) I love your little boys name btw! :) Good luck to you!
