How did you come up with your username?
My boyfriend's name is Angel and a past neighbor of ours started calling me Heaven, saying "Every Angel needs a Heaven." Some people have told me that this neighbor must have had a crush on me or something, but that was not the case. He never hit on me and I never got those kind of vibes from him, he was just a really nice, sweet guy. I was flattered by the nickname and thought it was cool that he would call me that.

How long have you been TTC?
Well we were TTC last year for three months and I got pregnant but miscarried after 8 weeks. I also had a concussion at the time, so I was having a lot of problems from April through November of last year, and was more focused on trying to get better mentally. We just moved from AZ to CA a few days before Christmas, and once we got here, we have been TTC again, so it's been about 2 months this time around.

I really thought I was pregnant a few days ago, I had been feeling different symptoms for the past two weeks, but I still keep testing negative.

How did you find out about APA?
A good friend referred me last year.

Anything else you'd like to add?
A lot of people have asked me about my marital status. I am not currently married but I have been with my boyfriend for nearly 6 years now (anniversary is in April). We plan to get married eventually, just hasn't happened yet. He refers to me as his wife when he's talking to other people; however, as much as I like the way it sounds, I do not agree with it because I feel that him doing so takes away part of what is special about marriage. Sometimes I refer to him as my fiance, but I don't even have a ring and we haven't planned a date, so.. It does feel like we're already married though. Anyway, it's great to be here and I can't wait to meet more people
