Trying to Get Pregnant

Newbie intro

Hello!

Just wanted to introduce myself. DH is 31, I am 30, and we have been married for a couple of years and have finally decided to start TTGP. I've been doing a lot of reading over the past couple of years and even invested in the fertility monitor to try to better track down ovulation. I tried temping a long time ago but wasn't able to keep up with it. I will definitely start temping with my next cycle. What else? DH & I are sci-fi fans, he having converted me after we got married. He got me into Star Trek (favorite is DS9) and I got him into Gilmore Girls. 

I've done a lot of reading on this board over the last week or so and I'm excited to start contributing!

WORF: I did not come here to admire the scenery. 
DAX: If you say so. I guess we should just go home. 
WORF: Well maybe. I would not be so hasty. 
DAX: I take it the scenery has improved? 
WORF: A few months ago, when I was commanding the Defiant on a scouting mission in the Gamma Quadrant, we encountered a protostar cluster, a swirling mass of colour set against a background of glowing clouds and burning sky. It was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen, until now. 
DAX: I've got to take you on vacation more often.

    Welcome, I hope your stay here is short! After the kind of morning the board is having, can I say thanks for not being BSC? I'm assuming your reading included the pinned Ultimate TTGP post, and that you've already read TCOYF, so I'm not sure I have much more to say other than an additional "welcome". I hope your stay here is short!

    Oh yeah, also, Gilmore Girls rocks!  Also, I admit to never having seen any Star Trek other than the two recent movies they made, and LOVING calling them "Star Trek 1" and "Star Trek 2" just to piss off my Trekkie friends.  That's what friends are for, right?

    @MrsDHO11 (not sure if this will show up as a tag): Oh, I can be BSC (just ask DH!!) but I keep my victims to one person: me. Occasionally DH ;) After all, I tested yesterday & today despite only being 7/8 DPO. No, but seriously, it is annoying when people aren't able to search for themselves. A handy bit of research will lead you to not ask certain questions (that shall not be named) on this forum and get a lot of the answers to which you're asking. I've been a long-time forum member on a site that caters to my profession and we have a certain question that gets asked nearly every single week. No gifs allowed on that forum, though, sad times. 

    On Star Trek: I think the movies are great too! I'm not sure if I'm to be trusted though because I also love The Phantom Menace which is considered to be the ultimate sacrilege violation according to some SW fans. So I'm still pretty new to the whole ST phenomenon, but I was watching a netflix documentary on fans at a convention. I burst out laughing when I heard the very serious admonition of one fan that he was not a "Trekkie" but a "Trekker" because you trek into space. C'mon, as someone who loves to go to cons and occasionally dress up, you're a nerd, I'm a nerd. Embrace it. You're not more sophisticated for being a "Trekker." :) 

    @ReesaAnne16 for sure!! I wonder how they will deal with Edward Hermann not being around though, if they'll cut to a grave site or just talk about it (surely they wouldn't say he was on a business trip). I was so sad when I heard that he died. 

    WORF: I did not come here to admire the scenery. 
    DAX: If you say so. I guess we should just go home. 
    WORF: Well maybe. I would not be so hasty. 
    DAX: I take it the scenery has improved?

    @waitingforbabies - I save all my fandom insanity for Marvel!  :wink:  And no gifs?!  WTF is up with that?!  I suppose they're trying to "be professional," but at what cost!
