Hi ladies! I'm new here and just wanted to introduce myself...I hope you don't mind if I join you. I'm 27 and me and my DH are now on our 7th cycle TTC. I have some major spotting issues before AF, it usually starts around 7DPO and continues until AF. I have a Dr appt on 3/19 to get that checked out, I'm really hoping that he will do some BW to try to figure out what is causing it.
Crossing over that 6month mark was really hard on me. My sister is PG, finding out the sex in a week, and my SIL is PG..due in May. Me and DH waited a long time to start trying (we've been married 8 years) ...now that it's taking so long I kinda wish we hadn't waited. It seems like everyone else gets PG without even trying
Anyway, I look forward to getting to know you girls!

 I'm sorry your journey has taken you to this point, but this is a wonderful group of ladies who are so full of love and support! You won't be sad you decided to join us!
I'm Cris (will be 29 in a few weeks) married to Shawn (33) and we've been trying for our first for 19 months.
Good luck to you and I hope you don't have to stick around here too long!

Hi & welcome!! I'm glad you've decided to join us- we're a tight group and very supportive.
I'm Jackie (27), DH is Jon (28) and we're in our month 16 of ttc our first. I'm currently on my 4th cycle of Clomid because I hadn't been ovulating on my own consistently...

 This is a lovely group of women here!
DH and I are TTC#1 as well, since April of last year. I have gotten pregnant twice though, and miscarried.

Hi and welcome! I am Ashley (31) and DH is Nathan (31). We are currently in our 15th month TTC and on our 4th Clomid cycle. You definitely won't be sorry that you joined this group. I also have had pre-AF spotting issues. The only thing that fixed that for me was Clomid. Good luck and welcome again!

Thanks ladies, I haven't told anyone that we are TTC so it's nice to feel like I'm not alone in this. DH tries to be supportive, but he just doesn't understand what I go through each month.

Hi!! You will love it here. I am Juli and we started TTC#1 in Dec 2007. We were just like you - we waited a LONG time (5 years) to do things "right". We got married, went to grad school, established our careers, bought a house, and then decided to have a baby. Well, the baby part didn't come as easily to us!! We were diagnosed with severe male factor infertility in October 2008, and we did our first IVF cycle in January. We were extremely blessed and now are expecting our first child in early November.
I still hang out here a lot though because the ladies are all so wonderful, and we are a tight knit group - so it's hard to leave  Welcome!!

 Kristin. I'm Kimberley and DH is Jason. We waited a very long time to start TTC too. We're now in our 11th cycle! We all know how frustrating it can be to be TTC so hard and see others do the same thing with seemingly little effort. This is a great group, and I know I would have gone crazy long ago without the support on JM!
