  • Ages (you and SO): I just turned 30 this last weekend! 🎉 DH is 34. 

    How many months have you been TTC?: We made our decision +1 day past ovulation so officially starting next cycle. Still did BD +1 past OV but I’m not holding my breath. 

    What are you doing to get knocked up (WAYDTGKU)?: OPK, CM & Tempdrop. I’m used to using my Tempdrop and FAM as BC so it feels weird to be using it for opposite purposes! 

    Tell us about yourself! (Kids, pets, job, hobbies, etc.): I have a dog (pomsky) named Teddy and a cat (red mac tabby) named Frank. My husband and I are self employed and I basically help with the businesses from home. We joke that I’m a stay at home fur momma. We’ve been married for 5 years and together for 7. We’ve waited for this for a long time as we had a lot to square away with our businesses and finances before we felt comfortable to TTC.  These last few years have been incredibly blessed and I’m so excited to now be on this journey!

    @Kenneylynn3 congrats on the house! I have a 14 month old DD and two dogs, as well!
    He’s super friendly and very intelligent, sometimes too smart for his own good lol. He’s a little high energy which is perfect for us and gets me out of the house and active but his size makes things manageable. I’ve heard that huskys have a reputation for not being the most loyal dogs but we haven’t found that to be true! I’m very much "his person". ❤️ So tempted to bring another one home and we probably will eventually after babies! 
  • @luckylemon1018 I was wondering if he were sassy. Poms and huskys are both so sassy! 🤣
