I was looking for a newbie thread for this week and didn’t see one, so I’ll jump in here with @coffeeandcookies84 and @ramzlau.
Ages (you and SO): I’m 37 and hubs is 33
How many months have you been TTC?: I had IUD pulled end of August. Last month I guess we were just NTNP. I’m counting this month as #1.
What are you doing to get knocked up (WAYDTGKU)?: So far just tracking on FF. I bought a box of OPKs at Target last week, but haven’t started using them yet.
Tell us about yourself! (Kids, pets, job, hobbies, etc.): We have one little. He’s 19 months old and he’s a busy little booger. It took almost 2 years total TTC with him. (TW-about 10 months and then a loss followed by another 9 months of trying.) I’m getting older, so I’m hoping my body cooperates this time around. We have 2 rescue mutts that are probably more spoiled than my son. I work in the medical field and my husband does sales from home. I work crazy hours so that sometimes makes timing of the fun stuff tricky. I’m also training to run my first marathon in November! I started lurking to get geared up to start this journey, so since I am officially trying, I’m looking forward to being part of the group. Good luck, ladies!!
@melliek0903 Good luck on your marathon training! My 1/2 is the first weekend of Nov, I do my last long run this weekend. It is just around the corner!
@ramzlau Good luck to you, too!! That’s exciting that you’re almost there. I’m running at the end of November. I’m just trying to keep up with my long runs, family, work...it definitely keeps me on my toes.
Nice to meet all of you! Since the newbie board for this week is a little lonely right now (and because I goofed at following directions earlier), I'll put my info here:
Ages (you and SO): I'm 27, DH is 26
How many months have you been TTC?: Since April, so six cycles
What are you doing to get knocked up (WAYDTGKU)?: OPKs, CM, regular intercourse, cycle tracking in app. And, recently, seeing doctor which led to PCOS diagnosis and we'll soon decide where to go from here.
Tell us about yourself! (Kids, pets, job, hobbies, etc.): No kids yet, 2 wonderful dogs. DH is a software engineer and I'm a teacher. We're pretty much homebodies who like the simple things in life lol. But we enjoy cooking, tending to our potted plants (can't say "gardening" because our backyard is just dirt and rocks), going on walks when the weather is nice, coffee dates, trying new foods, decorating our home here and there, and dreaming about the future. I also enjoy reading, writing, and painting. Can't wait to get to know everyone better!
@faith_2911 Welcome! Nice to meet you! It can get lonely when it is hard to talk IRL about this process. Hope you are able to find your tribe here for this time in your life, and hope your time here in TTGP is short and sweet!
