new here.... Can't wait to start
Hey everyone, I am new to this side of the boards. My fiance and I are getting married March 1, 2014 and will be TTC at that point. We are waiting for the wedding day so that I can still fit in my dress. I currently have one daughter from my previous marriage who is 9 years old. So yes, my kids are going to be 10 years apart! I can't wait to read about everyone else's experiences and get advice about TTC. Happy Friday!
ETA: I forgot to list some of the issues I've been having and why I am concerned. First, I was 22 when I got pregnant with my daughter, and it wasn't easy for me then. I didn't have to seek medical help yet, but it was almost to that point. I've never been a "regular" person. I've been on birth control for the better part of 10 years since I had my daughter. I tried the IUD for a year and hated it. Well, this past December I had a myoectomy to remove two softball sized fibroids from my uterus. So now I have scarring on my uterus that will likely make conceiving more difficult. That, plus I'm 32 and it's always more difficult to conceive the older you get. So... hopefully all my prayers will be answered in March and I get pregnant quickly!

"You know you're in love when you don't want to fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams." - Dr. SeussIt's actually going very smoothly. I am just trying to enjoy it and soak it all in. I've been through a lot so I know how precious these wonderful days are. God has truly been so good to me and sent me a precious man who puts up with me, lol. But there's only a few minor things left to take care of! I am simply looking forward to experiencing it all!
