Intro! TW: Child mentioned

[mamanbebe]

Hi all!

I am an occasional lurker coming off the bench. 

I am 34 and have a 2.5yo DS. I am a SAHM who lives in the NW. I have lots of deep interests like walking alone in the morning to get a cup of coffee, enjoying 1 or 3 glasses of wine at the end of the day and endless amounts of Netflix and Hulu.

After a tumultuous toddlerhood with my sweet wild DS and lots of big life changes, DH finally decided that he is ready for another LO. We may not start TTC right away but I am SUPER EXCITED and would love some communal support when we do get going.

I had some troubles getting my cycle regulated before DS--I had short luteal phases--but after 8 months of prenatals and charting up the wahoo, I was able to get on track and get a grasp of my window and we got a BFP on the first try. Hoping for such luck this time, but given that my cycles have been really wacky lately, it may not be so easy but I stocked up on my prenatal gummies and I'm ready to roll. 

Anyway, glad to be here!

Welcome. If you haven't checked out the newbie blog it's a good place to start.

Thanks, LED. I breezed through there and have been reading all the intro threads to get up to speed with how things go. I probably will not be super active but I wanted to pop my head in and introduce myself here before I started really participating much.

Elly is wise, her advice is sound. :)

Why already say you won't be active? If you want to be, go ahead! There's no reason to count yourself out before you have the chance. ;)

Thanks  

I mostly won't be super active because I just ditched my smart phone, so just when I am on a computer can I join in on the fun. I am excited to get to know you all though! 

Thank you to everyone for the warm welcome! SaveSave
