Mind if I join you? (long-ish intro)

Apollo11235 · September 2014

Hello, GPM! I still can't really believe I'm here, but I figure telling my story to you and joining in will help it sink in.

So, a little about us and our story... I am 26, DH is 27, and we're both in grad school studying math in the Midwest, with plans to graduate in a little under a year. We met on the first day of grad school orientation and started dating half a year later, in early 2010. We got married on 9/29/2012, and DH was pretty much ready to TTC then and there. I was not, emotionally in part, but mostly because I wanted us to have a better handle on our finances. When we reached our financial/TTC goals at the end of July, I did some thinking and decided I was ready.

So we tried for two cycles and found out we succeeded with a super faint BFP on a Wondfo this past Friday morning at 10 DPO. This was followed, of course, by several more tests of varying brands over the next couple of days. The lines are getting darker, and I managed to turn two digital tests positive last night, so I'm starting to believe this is actually happening!

I'm feeling a little cautious/terrified as I know it's super early still, but we have told two very close friends and my parents, who we're also close with, plus of course GP/GPM

.

I'm looking forward to participating over here and getting to know a lot of you better!
