Re: Newbie Intro: Week of 11/26
Hi, I have been lurking for a bit. I am not sure how active I will be but wanted to post an intro.
Ages (you and SO): me: 36, so: 39
How many months have you been TTC?: There were a few months of NTNP, but this is our second month trying in earnest.
What are you doing to get knocked up (WAYDTGKU)?: Temping, ovulation tests.
Tell us about yourself! (Kids, pets, job, hobbies, etc.):
*TW miscarriage and kids mentioned*
I was active on the Bump when I was TTC our first in 2016-17. I had a MMC that was discovered at our NT scan, and after that I was more active on the TTCAL threads. I was so grateful for that community. I ended up getting pregnant again and having our son in April 2017.
*End TW*
I don't feel like I have much time for hobbies right now, but I like reading, hiking, running, and gardening.
Ages (you and SO): I'm 31 and DH is 35.
How many months have you been TTC?: IUD is scheduled to come out on Dec 11th. In the meantime, I'm temping to figure out where I exactly am in my cycle and attempting to mentally prepare myself to TTC again. I'm a bit anxious about going down this road again.
What are you doing to get knocked up (WAYDTGKU)?: The plan is do all the things: BBT, PNV, OPKs, HIO
Tell us about yourself! (Kids, pets, job, hobbies, etc.): DH and I have been together for 11 years, married for 5. Our DD was born in July 2017 and we also have two cats. I work in higher ed and DH works in marketing. As for hobbies, I love to cook, bake and am an avid Boston sports fan.
I was active on TTGP from August 2015 to July 2016, and am now back to TFAS. I made some incredible friends here the first time around and I truly don’t know where I would be today if I hadn’t joined TB. I’m happy to be back and am excited to get to know all of you.
Together since 2007 | Married June 2013

TTC #2: December 2018
BFP: 2/26/19 | EDD: 11/7/19
TTC #3
Mirena out 1/23/24
How many months have you been TTC?: 13 months.
What are you doing to get knocked up (WAYDTGKU)?: I'm benched for 30+ days until my soon-to-be RE gives us the green light.
Tell us about yourself! (Kids, pets, job, hobbies, etc.): I have two kids, ages 4 and 2.5, who are my whole heart. DH and I also have two great danes. My hobbies used to include hiking, reading, and running, but now also include temping and squinting at negative pregnancy tests. 😂

If any of you are not interested in having me back in the community because of my dumbass behavior, please let me know and will walk away quietly. Please accept my deep apology for any hurt feelings by my previous inability to follow the board's guidelines. I have been lurking since and hope you are all well.
Ages (you and SO): me 39, him 37
How many months have you been TTC?: This journey started fall of 2017.
**TW losses mentioned**
Had another MMC two weeks ago and had another D & E
What are you doing to get knocked up (WAYDTGKU)?: Benched indefinitely. I currently live in the UK and the NHS is recommending I see a specialist in January. We are also in emotional and physical recovery mode.
Tell us about yourself! (Kids, pets, job, hobbies, etc.):
I have one living child, 4 years old. We are Americans living in the UK for a few years now for work. I don't have a lot of hobbies at the moment but I used to be an avid concertgoer and I couldn't live a day without music.
