I'm 30, DH is 29. We have been TTC our first since May 2011. I did get pregnant in November 2011, but unfortunately m/c'd at 12 weeks in January. So now we are on our 3rd cycle TTCAL.
As for non-TTC things, I am in insurance. DH is in... I dunno, technical support or something techy. We have two dogs, one beagle puppy and another beagle/chihuahua mix (we think). We just bought a house almost year ago. That's pretty much us in a nutshell.

I will try to get an avatar or A sig pic going but I'll have to wrangle the actual computer from DH unless anyone knows how to do that on an iPad. Anyway, I'm 26 and DH is 29. We have been TTC since April 2011 and got pregnant on our first try. Unfortunately, I had a missed m/c and d&c at 9w. My body never really got synced up after that and I had 6 really uncertain cycles but for sure short LP. 2 rounds of clomid BFNs now moving on to 100 mg clomid with trigger and IUI. Oh and a REALY early HSG scheduled for Tuesday. Other things: We have two cats that are 3 years old. DH has a daughter from a previous relationship, likes to bicycle, and works in insurance. I like to cook and garden and make fun of people who wear pajamas out of the house.

We're on our 15th cycle of trying and a few weeks ago found out DH has low morphology. We are headed to the RE on Monday, I'm hoping we can start with IUI.

Hey Jess!
I'm Sarah, I'm 25. DH and I started TTC last month. I've mostly posted on TB GP but sometimes on TN too. I am a newbie, so might as well be a newbie here, too.
We've been TTC since September 2011, but have had five chemical pregnancies during that time. Finally found an ENORMOUS fibroid, and I had surgery to remove it last month. Can't TTC again until July, but I have a lot more hope that it'll stick at some point now.
I'm 29, and so is H. I work for the government, he does experimental metal machining.

Oh, wow... I am so sorry for your losses. Hopefully, removing the fibroid did the trick and you will have your sticky baby soon. Good luck!

Hi I'm 24, started ttc in april 2011. Found out I have PCOS in November. Finally started a "normal cycle" in February. So now we'll see what happens.
Not TTC related, I got married in March 2011. I work in health insurance, which is incredibly boring and why I'm on these boards all day. I'm addicted to peanut butter. I enjoy traveling, fishiing, reading, long walks on the beach (no just kidding..ok well I do, but that's not part of this.) We have 7 fish, and as soon as we move in a few months we'll hopefully get a dog or seven.
I'm 29, married 2.5 years. We've been TTC for 7 months, no success.
My husband has low numbers, all around. He had varicole surgery last year, which didn't improve numbers at all. No further testing on either of us yet.
Other than that, I am a social worker and my husband is a civil engineer. I love everything make-up/skincare, and we love to travel.

Hi, I'm 32 and DH is 34. We are just going into our 6 cycle/month ttc. We missed timed a lot the last 6 months so maybe we have really had 2 months where we had a shot.
I just went to the doctor for bloodwork as I never have got a positive OPK so will get the results on Tuesday..

I'm 30, I have PCOS, and we're on our 3rd cycle TTC. I just made my intro on GP about a week before the switch. It'd be nice if more people made the switch over to this board, but even if they don't I hope we can be active here.
I'm Babs. My partner and I are on our third cycle of TTC. We got BFPs (both ending in CPs) on our first two attempts, which has to be some sort of (depressing as hell) record.
For this coming cycle, we're switching donors. If we have a 3rd CP, we'll seek a professional's help, because at that point, it's probably not just statistical bad luck.

I'm Jess. We're on cycle 10 with two miscarriages in the mix. It is cycle 5 since my last. I use OPKs, I used to temp and then fell off of the wagon after my CP in January. I am half-assing it now with temping.

I'm 24, we've been casually TTC for over a year, with no success. I've always had wonky cycles, but was recently diagnosed as Hypothyroid. We are TTA with BCP until September.
Hey all! I usually post on GP but would rather come here. I have been TTC since April of 2011 and was DXd with PCOS in January and was told that I'm not ovulating even with Clomid last cycle. Here we go!
My husband and I just built our first home and are now working on making it ours! I enjoy baking, being with friends and kids!

I'm Katherine. I'm 28, husband is 36. We've been TTC since January. Started cd 1 today . So onto our 6th cycle. My general practitioner said if I wasn't pregnant by July she'd forward me onto an OB who can monitor me and start testing.
I'm an oncology nurse and husband is an architect. We live in the midwest and have 3 furbabies. We were Married in October 2005.

I'm Tina, been on TB for about 8 months now, been TTC since November 2011, which puts us on cycle 7.
DH and I got married in October, but have been together for almost 5 years now. I am in the grocery industry and DH drives a fork lift for a living. There isn't much for me to say about myself, I guess there just isn't much to tell!
Hi - I'm MaryLou, 25. We've been TTC for 20 months (CD1 for Mother's Day, woot...) Doctors haven't been able to figure out why we haven't been able to conceive, so we just keep chugging along, trying naturally until we have a reason to move to procedures.
I'm 25, DH is 31. We have a 2.5 year old and are trying for #2. I have PCOS and hypothyroidism but got pregnant without fertility drugs or intervention the first time. I am a SAHM and part time medical office manager and DH is a microbiologist and works in infertility.

Hi! I'm 30 and DH just turned 31 (I'll be 31 next week!). We're on cycle 10 now. I occasionally posted on TB but was hoping it would be a shorter stay...I've been charting, using opks, etc with no luck yet. I am actually planning on starting acupuncture this cycle so we will see how that goes.
I'm a speech therapist and DH works in IT. We live with our 3 year old black lab. My hobbies are cooking, baking and working out to counteract those other two hobbies
