Re: Newbie Intros w/o 1/23

  • Ages (you and SO): 37 and 45 (we are old, lol) 

    How many months have you been TTC?: 6 ntnp, 2 actively trying. 

    What are you doing to get knocked up (WAYDTGKU)?: 

    Tell us about yourself! (Kids, pets, job, hobbies, etc.) tw (children & previous losses) 

    I have two older children ages 6 and 2. I had a few losses between them as well. 
    We have four cats, a corgi, and an ever changing number of fish with ridiculous names like “scratchy sneaker” and “puffy.” 
    I’m a financial advisor, and my husband is a robotic engineer. We are currently living about four hours apart which is complicating TTC. I used to be a professional photographer and still do it as a hobby and teaching my oldest to ski this year. 
    We decided to give TTC another few months, but we agreed we won’t go to extraordinary measures (we needed reproductive assistance in the past after struggling with secondary infertility and repeat pregnancy loss) and we aren’t going to do all the things this time. Hoping we are lucky and have a miracle, but we’re also trying to be okay understanding that may not happen. Joining to offer and receive support while we see which path we end up on!
