Hi! My name is Nicole and I am 24 years old! I got married to the absolute love of my life on a rainy, chilly day in June 2013. We have been together 5 and a half years now so it was absolutely amazing to say my vows to him. We have two dogs and a cat. Zeus is a 13 year old, boxer mix. Addy is a 4 year old, purebred golden retriever. And Lyric is our very snooty 2 year old blue russian mix, cat who loves my husband way more than me. I am a full time nanny and full time business owner. I go to college nights for business administration. I'm honestly a super bubbly, open, and caring person.
My husband and I started TTC in july without much knowledge, just having fun. In August we got more serious about it. I have endometriosis, that has been dormant for about five years, but that was while I was on birth control. Since I am no longer on that, I am praying it stays dormant. I had to wait until mid September to get an appointment with my OB and I had bloodwork done and everything came back good. Well, except for my Vitamin D levels, I'm deficient. But she told me not to worry because here in NY, everyone is. Haha. I take chewable prenatals and a 1,000 iu vitamin d pill every day. I use Fertility Friend to chart my BBT, CM, and BD. I want to be a mommy very much, and I know it will take some time. But I hear having good friends and support groups is a good way to make it through all the hard times, and good times.
I wasn't sure if I should post a photo of me so I didn't. If you want one I will add it. =]

PS - thanks for taking our "advice" and comments in your other post about not knowing who you are in stride and not pulling a "oh you guys are just all bitter, hateful JERKS! I HATE YOU ALL!" like a lot of people do
We really are a very welcoming community and I hope you're able to post more often!
It's so refreshing to see someone not get all defensive and instead, do a proper intro and stick around! Seriously... refreshing!
