I'm 35 now. Thirty effing five. I've been having a bit of a hard time adjusting to the change. Some of this angst is because I'm now officially old and must admit that I will now never do some of the things I wanted to do in my life (be thin while I'm young, can't think of anything else, it must just be that). More of the sturm und drang though comes from us getting back on the TTC bandwagon.
I made the appointment for the consultation. It's real. I'm actually signing up to go through all this another time.
I'm out of practice here -- there's so much going on in my head and I'm finding it difficult to articulate. Hopefully, I'll be less rusty as I keep posting. I would like to keep a record of this time -- not for my child(ren, hopefully) to read later, but more for myself -- to have it memorialized that I was here, I went through this, I wanted this.
I am in a better space to be starting a new IF journey. I've lost a lot of weight since we first started trying. Thanks to hyperemesis during the pregnancy and gallstones afterwards, I lost 70 pounds all tolled. Of course, once my gall bladder came out, I started eating and eating and eating. I'm still down 25 lbs though and I'm doing Weight Watchers to inculcate those healthy eating and exercise habits again.
We're also in a new (to us) house, in a new (to JD, but home to me) state. Yay Maryland!! It's lovely to be back on this side of the river. I've got a 10 minute commute and it's just lover-ly. Sure, our home has been invaded by packing boxes which multiply like Gremlins, but otherwise, I'm really happy with the house.
We'll see where we go from here, eh?

Yay! I've missed you! Oh, and Happy Birthday...sorry I didn't get your card out in time.
So excited for you guys to be trying again. It sounds like things are going really well.
Nice to see you post again!
Happy birthday--I'm also turning the big 3-5 this year and having issues. As if now suddenly I'm a grown up
Good luck getting back in the stirrups and on the rollercoaster. Hope all goes well with #2! (boy that is a little weird to type)
