in Trying to Get Pregnant

Hi ladies!

New to the board and excited about TTGP!  About me... I'm 30 and my DH is 33.  We met in grad school and have been married for 3 years.

 I've been on birth control for nearly 15 years and recently started TTC #1 in May.  Unfortunately my chart is a total mess due to a hugely inconsistent schedule with overnight/30 hr shifts, then vacation.  Hoping it will start looking better soon!  Trying not to drive myself too crazy waiting to do something as I'm currently CD54.

 Other things I love include traveling (obsessed), running, cycling, great food/wine/beer, gardening, shopping and of course my shows- Homeland, Game of Thrones, and the Kardashians  (I know it's shameful).

 Looking forward to bumping!

    Welcome and good luck! I also love wine and beer and am guilty of watching the Kardashians Embarrassed
     

     This! I just reminded my DH they're on tonight. He tolerates them for an hour on Sundays so he can watch all the golf network he'd like for the rest of the day/week. Welcome and good luck!

    Thanks girls, I appreciate the support!

    I loved the books for Game of Thrones, even more than the series! I have yet to read the last one, but I'm sure I'll get to it this summer.   I have to wait for DH to finish the 2nd book so we can move on to the 2nd season on Netflix. 

     As for future trips, no big ones currently. We kind of splurged on South Africa earlier this year in our thinking that DH was about to start a new job and we were TTGP, but we'll have to save up.  By the way, best vacation of my life, you absolutely must go!  I really want to do Spain & Morocco next.  

     Best of luck ladies!

    We did Spain as our preTTGP trip and loved it! We hit Madrid, Barcelona, and Valencia, and I would move to Valencia if I could.
