Trying to Get Pregnant

intro

I did not really provide an intro when I started posting on this board again (under a new screen name), so here it is.

I am a 30-something gal, married to my best friend.  We have been blessed with one DS, who makes me laugh every day.  I work full-time and obsess over making sure I am up-to-date on the latest research about TTGP and being a mom.  I then pick and choose what I think makes sense for me, so I am not a slave to any of it.

After giving birth to DS, I was very sick (uterine infection, scary Pulse Ox, 104+ fever) and rehospitalized.  After several rounds of meds, I got better, relapsed, was rehospitalized, etc.  After all of that, the heavy antibiotics I was on - and the stress of the infection (a "superbug") robbed me of my milk supply and I carried on feeling guilty for a solid year for not being able to continue BFing.  I now realize that was so ridiculous and am just hopeful that all of the sickness and meds do not do anything to keep me from LO #2.

That's where I am coming from while TTC!

(Also, let me add that this board seems to be a lot friendlier than it was my first time around.  Not that the snark is not around, but it seems to be better placed now.  Just my $.02.)
