It's been a while since I have actively posted on the forum. My little miracle is now 4 months old and is perfect! My OB has cleared me to start ttc #2 and so DH and I have just started trying again. I started back up on acupuncture and herbs about 2 months ago. And I am hoping for another miracle!
I just wanted to post an update and say hello to you all. While we aren't actively seeking MA at this time, this is my home and where I feel comfortable, so I hope it's okay to stick around here!
