Hi,
I just discovered this forum and I'm totally bumped I didn't know about it sooner. I spent about a year preparing to TTC, slowly checking off my pre-TTC list, getting everything in order. Most of my friends thought I was crazy to approach it so seriously, but to be honest I loved being in control of how things happen and being prepared and I'm glad I am not the only one.

Anyways, this month is the first month we are TTCing, so I am sorry I didn't find this earlier. I got everything done before the month of April and we waited until May to start trying because we didn't want to risk a New year's Eve/Christmas baby ( my due week would fall right between Xmas and NYE) in case I get pregnant the first month.

So i figured I'd say hi here, since I was just there ( waiting to TTC) like a week ago If anyone is interested in reading about my pre-conception journey and all the preparations or getting some advice, feel free to visit my blog, The Art of Making a Baby (https://www.prebabyblog.com)

Oh and hang in there. Our TTC preparations seemed to take forever. I really can't believe we're green lighted

Now my stats!
