Re: QOTD 1/29/11

1. How long have you been married?

Almost 3 years


2. How long have you been TTC?

15 months...... but 1 yr with the RE. I started seeing the RE after just a few months off the pill, knowing I'd have issues- just never predicted how bad!!!

3. Do you have any other children?

My cats :)

4. Where are you from?

LI

5. What methods are you using to TTC?

Previously IUI, probably moving on to IVF for the next cycle

6. Anything else you would like to add?

I went through infertility and was a success story. I had a very unfortunate loss at 17.5wks. What I can say is that the moment you see that heartbeat on the screen is the most incredible feeling in the world. It's my motivation in moving forward despite all the crap we must go through to get there.

Re: QOTD 1/29/11

1. How long have you been married?
6 months

2. How long have you been TTC?
Started TTC in December and got my BFP first time around, but lost it at 4 weeks.

3. Do you have any other children?
Nope, just an adorable niece and nephew.

4. Where are you from?
Grew up in Ronkonkoma, still in Suffolk

5. What methods are you using to TTC?
Temping and OPKs

6. Anything else you would like to add?
Well, I think that I stressed A LOT during the first month TTC and went crazy with temping and all. I then POAS every day after my BFP to make sure I was in fact still PG. They kept coming up positive, but that's only because my levels were still so high. I'm going to try my best next time around to not stress out so much and just let things be. Will probably temp a little longer, but I may just rely on OPKs. I think the temping made me a little nuts.
