I just wanted to introduce ourselves. My partner, Ashlie and I had our commitment ceremony over a year ago, but have bee together now a little over four years. Last year we decided to start our journey to Mommyhood. We visited a Fertility Clinic last year, and got the preliminary bloodwork done to determine how fertile I am and such. We then found out that her insurance would be covering none of it at all. We decided to take some time away from it, and save up money to pay off some school debt. I now work at a local hospital that offers phenomenal insurance, and artificial insemination is covered under it. I will be getting on the insurance here in July, and we will then visit a Fertility Clinic again.
I don't know what we can do in the mean time though to prepare ourselves. I am taking prenatal vitamins already, and we bought a Basal Body Thermometer. I see everyone here talking in a language that I am so beyond confused about. I know eventually we will understand it, but for now I am at a loss!
Where did you start? What should we be doing? Am I doing anything wrong?
