Last time I was here dh was preparing to deploy and we were ttc. Unfortunately it didn't work out so we were forced to put ttc on hold until he got home.
Well, in about 2-3 days, DH should be leaving for home for his 2wk leave. It can take anywhere from 4-7 days for him to get here. For ttc purposes only DH and I are hoping he gets here around the17th, any sooner and there is a risk he will leave before my 3 day 'fertile window'
I wanted to stay involved here while he was gone, but things got very hectic after ds and I moved and hopping online was a pretty rare occurrence. ds is going to 4 specialists so i am either at appointments or working with him at home. Thankfully, things have settled down the last few months and ds seems to be doing much better. I have been trolling around here and figured since DH is coming home within the week our ttc plans are back on.
I am 3 days into the 2ww of my current cycle...obviously just waiting for AF to show, praying I have a shorter cycle this time (my shortest have been 26 days) since that will only increase our chances. Started taking prenatals, bought Soy (since the only month I tried it was the month I got my bfp and b/c O can be pretty weak) and have my wondfo's ready. All there is to do now is wait and hope that the timing works out, otherwise I will be on the sidelines again till Jan.
Hope you all have been well.

Ohhh no!!! I cannot tell you how bad I felt that I lost all that info!!! My computer bit the big one in the move and it took a while to get a new one. I kept hoping whoever I was assigned to didn't hate me. My mail got messed up when we moved too (despite going to the post office prior and changing my address). I never did get anything.

No worries! I thought maybe you had moved so I had a few people try to PM you for a new address lol. I didn't put a return address since it was secret so it must be lost in mail heaven. Glad you're back!
