How many months have you been TTC?: just starting
What are you doing to get knocked up (WAYDTGKU)?: I bought a thermometer for temping and got ovulation sticks - didn’t temp when TTC last time (5 years ago 😳). I’m on folic acid and DHA now and a daily multivitamin but will resume prenatals next week.
Tell us about yourself! (Kids, pets, job, hobbies, etc.) I am a psychiatrist and have been with MH since we were 16 & 17, married for 14 years in July. We had our first at 24 & 25, just prior to me starting medical school. He’s 10yo in 5th grade. Almost 11. We didn’t try for number 2 until 2015, and our daughter came 9 weeks early in Sept 2016. She’s 4yo and will be starting VPK in the fall.
MH had a vasectomy in 2018, and my IUD came out in Aug 2020. I was surprise pregnant by Oct 2020. We found out we were expecting a little boy, but we lost him almost 3.5 weeks ago at almost 24w.

I’m Alex and I’m an old member returning. I was here 2016-2018 trying for our first and finally got him after our second IVF. After he was born we had a super surprise baby and are now back trying for our third.

How many months have you been TTC?: none so far
What are you doing to get knocked up (WAYDTGKU)?: starting PNV and will be meeting with our RE to do BW, SSG etc...
Tell us about yourself! (Kids, pets, job, hobbies, etc.) I’m a veterinarian and have been for almost 7 years now. I live in CT with my husband, two kids, our dog, cat and it’s a pretty great life. Surprised we are gonna go for a third actually because I was pretty adamant about only wanting 2 but hormones are crazy.
@kiwi2628 welcome back! I was a lurker in 2016 when I was learning about charting while trying for our first and definitely remember your name! Glad to have you here. Hope your stay is short though!
