How did you come up with your username? It's how I feel! I never thought I wanted kids until a few months ago, now I'm so happy, life doesn't worry me, and I feel very hopeful and wishful. I've never felt this at peace in my entire life.

How long have you been TTC? 1 month (after stopping bc the month before and stopping meds that could be problems).

How did you find out about APA? Searching online. This is a great resource! I really don't know anyone I can talk to about what I'm thinking/feeling, and I'm glad to find a place to go to.

Anything else you'd like to add? We're trying not to stress about the process and are mostly trying on our own. I did pick up a basal thermometer today to see if we can increase our odds a bit. I'm 36. I'm working on eating better, losing a little weight, and exercising so I can be the healthiest I can be!
