(1) Currently, SAHW. My field is in music, and I had previously done work in Arts Administration and loved it. However, DH and I were living in Germany for the past 5 years, and when we moved back to the States I was 2 months pregnant. We both agreed I would be a SAHM, so I decided not to look for a job once we got to MA.

(3) My favorite ice cream flavor is Blue Moon-odd, I know! I tried it for the first time when I was three and I fell in love with it!

To be honest, I have never actually looked into it... I personally don't think its bad because I can't imagine that there would be raw egg in ice cream that people can eat all the time. I have been meaning to google it for while now....

Career: SAHW. I graduated from college in December and my first out of school job was temporary/seasonal. I found out I was pg a month later so didn't bother looking for anything else since I plan on being a SAHM. The restaurant I worked at in college has a location out here as well so I may work 3 or 4 shifts a week for sanity.
I'm 23 and DH is 30.
Ice Cream: Any variation that contains chocolate. My favorite is chocolate with brownie pieces and raspberries from Cold Stone.
We were planning on trying a year from now, but were pleasantly surprised.
I really love it. I was going to do speech path until I had to complete some clinical hours and I changed my mind. I was way more into ears, haha!

(3) What's your favorite ice cream flavor? that's kind of an impossible question! especially lately! i'm obsessed with fudgie the whale from carvel, but that's technically a cake and not a flavor...i love haagen dazs bananas foster, peanut butter & chocolate, CCCD, half baked, cherry garcia...god, i could go on all day long.
(4) If you were "trying", how long did it take you to conceive this baby? another toughie...well, when we first started trying around july of '07, it took us 7 months, and we m/c at 5w4d...got PG again 2 cycles later and lost that one too, also at 5w4d. decided to take a long break and just sort of started to half-ass the TTA and got PG again in november '09....lost that one early as well. went to an RE just to see what was wrong with me and he explained that my Hashimoto's Hypothyroidism was basically causing killer cells in my body to see the embryo as "foriegn" and attack it. he had a wholeplan of treatment ready to go and i kept chickening out and then, we just happened to get PG again a few months later. i was sure this one would be a goner too, but he stuck around like a little champ and here we are!
