either I'm getting old...

...or your kids need to stop growing up so fast!
I first started visiting this board last summer and...
Sprout hadn't turned 5 yet.
Most of the infants here were just announced BFPs.
leapgirl and Jen had just started their TTC journey (others too, but I can't remember everyone)
And because I want to acknowledge that time passing can be difficult for some people, others started their TTC journey around then and still don't have their sticky pregnancies yet.
To those I've mentioned and everyone I haven't, it's been a joy to be on the journey with you. I love this community and the support we share through the good times and the bad times.
Same sex couple TTC with donor sperm. I am 35 and carrying. Endometriosis and DOR.

Re: either I'm getting old...
I think this all the time too. If my first cycle had worked, I'd have a 3 month old right now.
But yes, you're getting old.
9 IUIs = 9 BFNs

*Everyone welcome*
My head spins when I think about how much our lives have changed in the last year. Grateful for every minute, but it has been a RIDE.
I love this board too
This.
And we think this too, because my niece who just turned 5 was conceived during a time when we were doing IUIs. We said to each other, can you imagine having a 5yr old? We both agreed it was a long & hard battle, but it turned out for the best.
Its crazy isnt it?
what really gets me is that I was planning my wedding a blink ago with a group of these ladies. We had long, serious conversations about linen colors and guest lists. That tells me how quickly times can change.
Blogs: Our Growing Family - CT Working Moms
IVF Oct/Nov 2012
Beta #1 = 77, Beta #2 = 190, Beta #3 = 1044
Cautiously optimistic.
I love watching these families grow and sharing in the trials and tribulations of the board!
So sorry I missed those days. It didn't even occur to me to use the community on The Knot, but their checklist got us through, and we even managed most things with a minimum of awkward. We're still newlyweds though, so we're a bit behind the original Knotties.

Yes, this!! And it's crazy to me that even with Mommy Brain, I can still remember the wedding pictures of 2brides, CT, T*T, leap, and others who only pop by occasionally (kendylann, if you're reading, hi! ::waves::)
IUI #3 gave us the best 2nd anniv. gift ever: 2 babies! (born 03/09/10)
Peanut and Little Man are getting so big! 2 years old already!
finally blogging again at This Will Be: An Adventure
I'm on of the old Knot > S-S Households > Bump crew (who's still childless). Even through my now-so-ridiculously-long-that-it-no-longer-seems-like-a-break from ttc, this board has been an amazing source for comradery, commiseration and support.
