Re: Intro Thread?
Your Name? Jess
SO's Name? dave
How long have you been married? Almost a year.
How long have you been TTC? we were successful on cycle 7
Do you have any other children? both dave & i act like we're 3 years old....does that count?
What plans or methods have you used? OPK's, Fertility Friend, Temping, Charting, Pre-natals, Folic Acid supplements for both Dave & I, B6 to try and lengthen a short LP (didn't work to lengthen).
Do you have any other contributing factors? My doctor was concerned about egg quality, my age and my short LP, but we made it through.
Anything else to add? My most sincere apologies if the fact that i'm pregnant upsets anyone. I have been on this board for 8 months now and am so invested in so many of you that I intend to stick around until every last woman I 'grew up with' has moved onto the pregnancy board...
I learned so very much in my time here, i feel like it would be a waste to not share that knowledge..
