BOTB

My DH and I were married 10/13/13 and we have always agreed on the fact that we will wait 2+ years before we start TTC.  I am on some pretty nasty medications to stop some joint damage in my hands (nonspecific rheumatoid-like arthritis) and am currently on BCP.  I am having the Mirena "installed" in December so that my body can get back to producing its own baby-making hormones (side note - I went off BCP for about a year before meeting my husband and my body regulated itself).

I hope I'm not alone.  It's getting pretty ridiculous.  :/

  • Hi and welcome.  Congrats on your recent marriage!
    There are definitely other women here that are TTA like you are.  Stick around, you'll learn a lot, and it'll help pass the time until you're ready to TTC.
