Thank You!

My wife and I are just starting out with this whole TTC thing. Days and weeks have never gone by slower 
I've been lurking on the boards and just wanted to say thank you. I've been driving myself nuts with anxiety over PCOS. Reading your stories and seeing how supportive you all are with each other has soothed my worries. I'm so excited to keep following your stories and hopefully add some of my own!
