Hey everyone, 
Well, I have headed over from BnB where I may be more recognised as Mum2be (I was having a user name crisis when coming up with that one lol!)
Well, me, I am 29 next week, and have a darling DH and we have a 2 year old staff (whose favourite place is asleep on my knee in front of the lap top!). I have a 9 year old DSD who is mostly fab... but as any kid I guess does have her moments.
I have been TTC since coming of the depo injection 2 years ago, with a cycle returnng in January this year. As they started to get regular I started temping and using OPK's, but very little happened. I had progesterone levels checked last november which showed the injection was still in my system (probably) and as I was getting more stressed these were rechecked in May, again, it was shown that I was not ovulating. At this I decided to take a break from the hardcore checking for a few months. Around this time I was also having issues with work and was signed off sick.
In August as I was considering starting the temping and charting in the next cycle in preperation for referral to a fertility specialist, I got my BFP (!) we were surprised to say the least, but incredabley happy. Issues at work were also beginning to get sorted so things were going well. I was due to return to work at 11+4 after 5 months off however someone had other plans as I then had a MMC at 12 week (baby went at 8+4) with an ERCP. MY experience of the services were fairly traumatic and is now something else I am having to work through. I am due to return to work next week which I am hoping will help me regain a sense of who I am.
I have found BnB a really good source of help and am sure this forum (with the overlap of mods) will be just as supportive, but I guess I do get a bit confused with the advice from users from other countries, so am hoping that there will be a bit more 'uk' advice over here...
I wish everyone else the best in their journies too
