Calling you 20 somethings....

I know that we hear all too often that we are young and have plenty of time to conceive. Yet there are many of us here fighting against the static we receive and holding on to hope for each other. I thought it might be nice for us to form a sub group in the forum. This thread marker is here for a reason. So how many 20 somethings are out there? Give us some information, let's get to know each other. Let's work with a few questions:

1. How old are you
2. How long have you been married or with your significant other
3. How long have you been trying
4. What are your hobbies
5. Where are you from


1. I'm 25
2. I've been married for almost 5 years and with my husband for almost 9 years
3. We've been trying to conceive for a little over four years
4. I enjoy reading, scrapbooking, church and listening to christian contemporary music and I'm coaching high school color guard
5. I'm from Indiana - a small town about 45 minutes northwest of Indianapolis

Anything else you girls want to know, add a question!

What other questions can we ask to help get to know each other. My life is an open book so I'll answer just about anything.....

What is your favorite show on TV?
Do you have a favorite book or author?
What was your favorite vacation?
Where are you in your ttc journey?

My favorite TV show is House
Right now I'm really into the Christian Fiction series of Karen Kingsbury
My favorite vacation thus far was to Yosemite National Park in California
Right now I'm waiting for June after my miscarriage with methotrexate in March

Im 24 years old
I have been married for 4 years, dated DH since I was 15 years old.
We had been TTC for almost 4 years before I got pregnant.
I attended the University of Michigan for a Bachelors Degree in nursing.
Before I got pregnant I worked for a trauma team called the Air Angels, as a flight nurse. Now that Im pregnant Im staying on the ground! So I now work in a local hospital.
Some of my hobbies are playing sports, ice skating, swimming, camping, scrapbooking, and walking my dogs ( 2 full blooded labs)
I am originally from Detroit Michigan and moved to South Bend Indiana when I was 19.
My favorite Tv Shows are House and storm stories.
And my favorite vacation so far was my honeymoon, we spent one week in Costa Rica and two weeks in the Bahamas.
Currently I am in my 10th week of pregnancy.

So glad to meet you all. Some new girls and some I've know for a while but now we each know a little something about each other! We can keep this going, come up with more questions if you want to. The sky is the limit and my life is an open book - ask away!

1. Favorite show is hard to say! I like all of the CSI's, Dr. Phil, any reality TV show and home improvement shows.
2. My two fave authors are VC Andrews and Nicholas Sparks.
3. Haven't been on many vacations, but our honeymoom was to St. Louis and I loved that. We also go at least once a year to Gatlinburg TN and that is sooo relaxing!
4. On the 2WW after my first IUI!
