Hello everyone on 3TC. I read the newbie link and I want to be very respectful of this board, so I thought I would ask outright if this is the place for me to be or not. (And if the general opinion is "no," I am happy to just lurk without commenting.) I have LPD -- something that my mother, three out of four of her sisters, and a host of my female cousins struggle with. I also have Celiac Disease, which I can make women with it more prone to miscarriages. My OBGYN suspects the LPD is my reason for miscarriage and difficulty TTC. I have not, however, been TTC for a year, which is part of why I wanted to ask about the appropriateness of my being here. If it's ok with you, I'd like to lurk, maybe ask a few questions as they arise, and hopefully offer some encouraging words and support as I would get to know you.
Thanks everyone ![]()

I concur. I have a LPD and DH has low morph. This board has been a great source of support and education. Good luck with your testing and welcome to the board.
Another Celiac person! Wow! Give me a few days to go find those articles and I will return here with them for you if/when I can find them.
When did you get diagnosed???
TTC since Aug 2011. BFP #1 on 10/28/2011 EDD of 07/02/2012 Natural MC on 11/22/2012 BFP #2 on 10/28/2012 EDD of 7/13/13 Judah Ari born on 7/11/13.
I love my rainbow baby!
I also have not been trying for a full year. I'm on cycle 11 and less than 10 months. I joined the board a couple months ago after we got our MFI diagnosis. I do feel very welcome and I'm sure you would as well.
I will say that the posting on 3T is overwhelmingly about IUI/IVF, which is great info to me even though we aren't there yet. Sometimes I feel like I don't relate as much because we haven't done any medicated cycles and it seems like that is what everyone else is doing.
