Trouble TTC

Hello! Introduction

Hi all,

I lurked around the TTC board over the course of the last year, but now that we've crossed the 13 month mark, decided to join your lovely group.

I'm 33 and DH is 36. Back in June we had our first consult with the RE my OBGYN recommended, and we've begun testing this week. The RE indicated the game plan would likely be Clomid + IUI. Hoping we can start that with my cycle in August.

DH and I have been pretty open with our friends and family, and everyone's been very supportive. I was fortunate to be able to tell my boss, too--even though I promptly broke down in her office. So all in all I count myself lucky. 

Looking forward to getting to know you all!
