Hi there I am new to this board. although you may have seen me on the IUI board.
A little about me... Been married for almost 3 yrs. and have 2 SS. 15 and 13.
I would love one of my own .. DH had a Vasectomy after his youngest was born & my OB-gyn said that she would not bother with a reversal at this point.
I Have been TTC via DI since Nov. 4 failed natural.
I found out today that my Dr. is ready to move on to possible meds.
I want o wait a few months to reconnect with myself and lose a few unwanted pounds and get my BP undercontrol.
I am hoping that these next few months will fly by.. and I can find a little support here (I know I will ) I am here for you all too. !!
Lisa
I take it that Upper Michigan might suggest the U.P. of Michigan or up towards places like Traverse City?!
I am down near Detroit myself.
Good Luck with your DI process. I am waiting to TTC until September when we plan to TTC our possibly final baby. It'll be a little bitter sweet.
I am currently trying to lose some weight as well and since giving birth I have lost 60 pounds and half of that was lost since January. I am trying to lose 10 pounds a month which so far hasn't been to hard. I just keep trudging through it.
I'm Shannon DH and I have been ttc #1 for 5 months now since we got married but we haven't had any luck so for. Heres hopeing your stay here will be short and sweet and we all get that soon. Heres some baby dust for you.
Sure is great to get all these wonderful replies . ...I sure hope you all get your soon and likewise.
I live in WAY Upper Michigan .. Over the Bridge to the West near Marquette.
Do you know where that is Steph? How many kids do you curently have? ANd you want more... Gosh that is soo awesome I am raising 2 SS and I will just be happy with one of my own.
My Goal is to start Weight Watchers tomorrow. : ) Yikes .. I don't even want to see the scale..

Anything new on this board?

Yep I know where that is. Dh and I honeymooned in Mackinac Island but I know Marquette is even further.
I currently have 5 but we are planning on TTC one more come September to round out the bunch. I am also currently homeschooling the older ones, so I have all of them home with me.
Stephanie (Slingnmom),
I love your little Exclusively Pumping blinkie! I tried desperately to (many tears shed over this), but had great problems getting my DD to latch properly (even went to a LC). I also have Fibromyalgia and there were pain issues to deal with. Anyway, I so wanted DD to receive breastmilk, that I pumped exclusively for almost 3 months. After that I could not possible keep the supply for DD's demand and pumping every two hours was not an option (I was going off of maternity leave-DH was out of a job at the time). I'm not sure if I wil have difficulty with BFing next time around, but if so, I plan to pump again . I wanted to ask you...may I please copy your pumping blinkie? I haven't seen one anywhere else and I have searched many blinkie sites for one. I would love to have it waiting for me should I need it. Thanks
