Hi guys. I've been reading your posts for a while and am so glad that I found people that I could relate to! On the other hand, I am sad that we all have to go through this...

 My DH and I have been TTC #1 since October of 08. Not too long of a time, but getting longer every month. I work as an RN in the neonatal ICU so, lucky me, I am around babies practically every day! haha. I actually really enjoy taking care of the little babes but it's the fact of seeing these 14,15,16 y/os getting knocked up the first time they have sex. And then when they try to give you advice on how to get prego. What's that about?! I guess it also doesn't help when I work with 80 other women that are pretty much all on a constant cycle of having babies. Four of our nurses just had babies (within the last month) and one is about ready to. This is what I'm around everyday. And if one more person tells me, "just stop trying and it will happen," I may scream! haha. I think that's enough venting for my first ever post. Ha. Sorry, I know you guys deal with this everyday too. Thanks for listening!

    Welcome!! Sorry you have to be here and I hope you are only here for a short time.  I give you a ton of credit.  I don't think I would be able to handle being around all those babies going through what I'm going through.  Everyone here is very knowledgeable and very supportive . . . it is truly a wonderful community.  I too am thankful for stumbling across it.  Try to stay positive but when you have to vent this is the place to be . . . we are all going through the same thing.

    Good luck to you!!!
