OH, and thanks for posting this. We've had a wave of girls heading to PgAL and moving on to ttcal6+, and I don't feel like I know the board anymore.

DH was stationed at Fort Campbell. He's wanted to move back to TN or KY but our families are here. Nice to see a KY lady on the board!

We're not far from Fort Campbell!

With so many new 'faces' on the board, many bumpers on breaks and many off to TTCAL 6+, here's a few questions to get everyone acquainted::
1. Your name (if you like). Lauren
2. Your age.& job? (if you like). 28 - full time grad student
3. Where do you live? (Approximately) North Carolina
4. Your story of loss (in a sentence or two). 2 losses in 8 months. Our first one was a missed miscarriage at 11 weeks and the second was a chemical pregnancy at 5 weeks.
5. Your current TTC or TTA plan. We're doing our first round of injectables with IUI. If it doesn't work we'll be using frozen swimmers with IUI because DH is deploying
6. Your cycle day/stage (esp. if it's not in your siggy). CD 7
7. How long have you been on TTCAL on the Bump? Since our first loss in March but I lurk mostly..
8. If TTC, how do you keep FWP fresh and not just like a job that you have to do? It's hard to keep it fresh when we've been unsuccessfully TTC for over 3 years. I'm looking for some ideas.

8. If TTC, how do you keep FWP fresh and not just like a job that you have to do? During O time - it's a job, no getting around it. But try to make silly jokes with DH about the smiley faces on OPKs and be as lighthearted as possible about it.
