Hi everyone. It's that time again! Tell us a little about yourself. If you have been here a while...try to think of something about you we may not already know
I am Bobbie. I am 33 and my SO is Dave. He is going to be 43 in April. We both have two kids from our previous marriages. Stephany is 17, Jeremy is 16, Krista is 14 and Amanda is 13. I have been TTC for 6-7years now. I am on my third and hopefully final loss. I get to see a RE soon and am really excited to hopefully get some answers soon.

I'm Lindsey 21 married to DH Simon 22 for a year and 4 days  We had a chemical back in January '08. We're currently on cycle #16. We've been on hold, a break, since the chemical (3 cycles now) due to a cyst on my ovary. I hate being on birth control pills too. I want to TTC our miracle baby. We've been seeing a RE since January and once the cyst is smaller and or gone he'll start me on Femara and progesterone and we're hoping and praying that it'll be this next cycle #17 so we can get an easter egg and a 2008 Dec. baby!

I'm Jenn (about to be 29) and DH is Derek (34). We've been together close to forever, but only married about 8 months. We got our first BFP in Oct and m/c in Dec. This is our first cycle TTC again and we will know in a few days if it was successful! I'm a big nerd, I love to play games of all kinds.

I am Amber (30) wife of nearly 9 years to Kenny (32) and proud mom to Mason (will be 3 in May), who has severe hemophilia A. I had a missed miscarriage in November at 11 weeks and had a D&C. I am hoping next month will be our month and we can have a December baby.
Let's see... something you won't know about me... I met Bill Clinton when he was President and he pushed a group of little kids out of the way so I could take a picture with him, I swear.. I have the picture on my desk right now.

Hi all! I'm Chris (37) married to Caleb (33) and we have four little girls between the ages of 4 & 9. Last summer we decided to try for another before I'm too old (hopefully it's not too late) and we got our BFP in November 2007... Unfortunately, we lost our baby in December when I was 9 weeks along. I just got another BFP this week, so I'm super excited!!!
Something new about me....I love spicy food - the hotter the better!

Hello ladies! I'm Brittanie (will be 25 in 2 weeks and 2 days!), and my DH is Matt (he's also 25). Our angel is Cora Rei, stillborn at 38w2d on May 2, 2006. We also have our beautiful Erin, who was born June 7, 2007. She'll be 9 months in 2 days!
Let's see, something about me you don't know...
When I was 7 my family moved from Utah to Georgia and we lived there for a year. We moved back to Utah and I came back with a really think southern accent. Sometimes when I'm really fast it comes out...still...18 years later.

Heya! I'm Sacha (32) and dh is Jason (35). We m/c'd on 11/2/07 at 12w. We are on a TTC break while dh and I get a little healthier. We expect to continue TTC in late April.
Something new about me ~~ My mom divorced my dad when I was 7 because he cheated on her with my school teacher. (He is now married to her). My mom, dad and step-mom are all decent friends now. It's very weird (but good, I guess).

Hi there! I'm Becky (29), DH is Steve (32) and we're the very proud parents of our ornery daughter Bailey, who will be 2 on the 30th of this month.
We have been TTC since November 2007 and I had a m/c at the beginning of Feb.
Hmmm...one thing about me...I had braces for 6 years and my teeth still aren't right!!

I am 29 dh is 32. We have been married nearly 6 years. We have been trying since we started dating (just over 6 years). We have one beautiful little girl that was born sleeping at 27w5d. We are desperately trying for another little one to bring home with us for the past 11 months.
Something you don't know about me...hmm....on a vacation in hawaii I met a man in the navy and he asked me to marry him...I said "yes". Came home and then wrote him a dear john letter, basically saying that it was just too soon. We went our seperate ways and I met the man of my dreams.

Hi! I am Melanie (29...30 in May  ) married to dh, Thad (30). We have a 10 year old son together, Branden. After waiting almost 10 years to have another baby, we got pregnant in Oct but had a missed miscarriage and then a D&C at the end of November. We are now on our 3rd cycle TTC after the m/c and I hope this is our month!
Something new about me. Hmm...I just started temping this month and I am Obsessed!!! I sometimes even wake up at 4 in the morning and temp because I am afraid I will not get back to deep sleep and will mess up my 7 am reading. I better get a BFP soon so I can get some sleep

Hi Everyone, I am Stephanie I am 38 (39 on Monday) my Fiance is Dan. We have been together since 2004 and have been TTC since 2007. I had a missed miscarriage Nov 15th, and am finishing up my 2WW. This cycle was my first cycle on clomid.
Something about me, I used to date the manager of a major, notorious 90's grunge band, and jet setted around with him, complete with foo foo hotels and car service, and I was intimidated by his money. So much that he described me as "aloof". ( psst, I am not aloof! LOL)
