Christeena: I'm sure you must know my father in law- LOL!

I'm on Long Island and work in estate management. Hopefully, our baby will come soon and I can be a SAHM. It has been my dream since I can remember

Hi ladies. Winnie, so sorry to hear about your friend. I have personal experience with a family member with cancer and quite frankly is sucks! But women are sooo strong! And God is sooo good. I will be praying for her and her family. Like a previous message said - miracles can happen!

BTW, I am in the midwest - Indianapolis. I am an accountant. Kinda scared about the prospect of twins and the cost of daycare, etc. I can't be a SAHM since I am the major bread winner. Soooo many things to think about during this process. And this is only my first time! Maybe I can get one of those miracles I mentioned before and this could be my ONLY time. This seems to be such a sressful process. Still, I can't wait to start!!! I'm sure July 5th (Lurpon start) will be here before I know it!

Newbie!

And yes- your start date will be here sooner than you can imagine. And before you can blink your eyes, the month will be gone and you will fly through everything you've been researching and worrying about. It's a crazy process, but totally worth it

PS. Have you ever heard of Washington, IN? I lived there for a year as a child while my dad was starting a new company... tiny, tiny town, but I always ask people from the area!

Wow, we really ARE all from all over the country!

It's so exciting to hear from those of you who are getting started with either BCPs or other drugs already!! I'm a little sad that I still have about 12 more days of this cycle, so I'm lagging pretty far behind (but then again, of course, more likely than not I'm going to get preggers with minimal assistance from modern science this cycle, so I won't continue to be disturbed that I'm lagging behind timing-wise...)

And to us all: !!!!

You're ahead of me. I'm currently on CD13. My cycles are usually on the long side so I'm not expecting AF until at least the third week of July. Then I'll be on 2 weeks of BCP before starting stims. I'm guessing my ER will be in mid-late August.
