Intro

I thought since I enjoy writing so much this would probably be a good outlet for me. I really enjoy reading other blogs and a lot of times it's helpful to know other people are going through the same thing as I am...I feel much less alone! So let me tell you a little about myself and my journey ttc. I met and fell in love with my husband when I was 16, and 7 years later, in September 2011 we were married. We discussed children in our future quite a few times before getting married but at the time, it never seemed like anything that HAD to be in the cards for us. Right after we got married, a friend of mine gave birth to a beautiful baby boy, we went to visit and it was like a light switch...I was baby crazy!! After I saw my husband holding the baby and how naturally it came to him, I could just picture him holding our baby someday. I waited a few days to talk to him about it because I thought maybe the initial excitement of seeing a new baby would wear off but it didn't. So here I was, about two weeks after getting married, talking to my husband about wanting a baby, I was so nervous but much to my surprise, he was excited about it as well and we began officially "trying." I never wanted to be one of those people that immediately got pregnant after getting married because I wanted time to be newlyweds, but at this point, I didn't care. It was then that I realized how badly I wanted to be a mom!
