Hi. My name is Nichol. I'm 31, and I'm on cycle 7 of TTC #1. I have endometriosis pretty bad and after seeing my PCP yesterday as a checkup on my hypothyroidism I asked him a few questions about TTC. He recommended I see my GYN now about fertility testing because of the endo even though it hasn't been a year. I know I'll have lots of questions coming up about the testing to come but I wanted to introduce myself now. I'm a bit nervous about whats to come but trying not to worry about it too much.
So a little bit more about me, I've recently retired on disability (broke my arm and wrist & didn't heal enough to go back to firefighting) from the fire department where I was a firefighter/paramedic. I'm in massage therapy school now and should get my license in the spring. So for now I'm a stay at home wife while I finish school and really enjoying it.
I look forward to some good conversations and learning a lot from you all!

If there's one thing I've learned while waiting my turn,
it's that in each life some rain falls but you also get some sun.

Well.... I have two 7month old orang tabby kittens I rescued from the SPCA when they were 4 weeks old. They're from the same litter, the girl is Remington (Remi for short) and the boy is Sig Sauer (Sig for short). I learned my lesson with this in never letting my husband name any of our pets again! I have a 4 year old cockapoo, Briar, and a 2 year old Jack RUssel/beagle/pointer mix named Jasper. It's a full house. I've recently come to the realization that my little girl Remi, thinks she's a dog. She's throws a fit until she's let into the back yard when the dogs go out (I put her in a harness and on a lead) and I caught her the other day digging a hole. She also loves playing with socks! Jasper was a stray I got from animal control when he was about 6 months old....he's afraid of the dark, I think from being a stray when he was so young. It's definitely interesting at my house! lol.
