Hi ladies,
I've been a lurker for a couple months and decided to finally convert my knot account to a bump account. My husband and I have been married a little less than a year and half. We decided last December that we would TTC starting 2013. We are excited to start a family. I'm excited but nervous. I'm a major planner and it difficult for me to let go and just let things "happen".
I got off bc pill in July, so I could give my body plenty of time to get back into its natural rhythm. This past cycle was the first I used to opk and monitored cm to better understand my cycle. I think I'll start temping if I'm not pregnant in a few cycles( I just know I will get obsessed/stressed out).
