Hey everyone!
I'm Lindsay and will be turning 30 this January. My husband and I were married in July 2012, just bought a house last month, live in San Diego and will be TTC this February. Have to make it through our New Years plans and my 30th bday party in Vegas first! I was a member on theknot during my wedding planning and loved all the girls on there and hoping this group will be just as welcoming and helpful :-) This will be my first child and my husband's second. My step daughter is 3 1/2. We are really hoping for a boy and I've read some books about increasing our chances to conceive a boy; however we will be blessed with a boy or girl. I've charted this month and it's my first month off BCP. I'm planning on using OPK's upon starting my next cycle and continue to chart with BBT and CM. I've had a hard time reading my CM syptoms, doesn't really make sense to me what I' supposed to be seeing. I'm so excited to embark on this next adventure, but terrfied at the same time. I think everyone feels this way. Good luck to everyone and I look forward to getting to know you girls!
