Hello Everyone!

 I'm A and married to my wonderful wife J.  I have actually been a lurker on this board for about 10 months... ever since we were married in November and I moved from the knot to the bump :)   A little about us:  We just moved from Seattle, Wa to Cambridge, Ma so I could finish some classes and apply to grad school.  We both nanny and love working with kids.  Our plan is now to start TTC the end of November and we plan on my wife carrying our first.  We are SO excited!

 Right now we are trying to figure out how to meet people in the area like us (we moved without knowing anyone) so if anyone in the Boston/Cambridge area knows of any tips or communities, I would love to know!

 I look forward to getting to know everyone!

 Hope everyone is having a good day :)

A

 

 

My name is A, I am wife to J.  After 7 months of ttc and one MC, we are expecting two baby girls in 2014!

    Welcome!  We're in the Boston area.  Unfortunately I don't know of any communities (I'm assuming you're talking about social groups rather than towns/neighborhoods).  But there are a bunch of Boston folks here and I think we've thrown around the idea of doing a Boston get-together at some point.
    Married my wife 8/2007 ~ TTC #1 since 7/2011
    9 IUIs = 9 BFNs
    IVF October 2012: 22 eggs retrieved, 17 fertilized, 5 frozen
    ET #1: 1 blast = BFP; Blighted ovum discovered at 7w5d; D&E
    FET #1: 1 blast = BFP; Missed m/c discovered at 9w5d; D&E
    Karyotyping: normal ~ RPL Testing: normal ~ Hysteroscopy: normal
    FET #2: 1 blast transferred 10/25; BFP 10/31!
    EDD 7/13/14 ~ Induced at 37w4d due to pre-eclampsia ~ Born on 6/28/14
    *Everyone welcome*
