PDA

View Full Version : New (obviously) and completely overwhelmed (in a good way, I think)

Um, wow. So I am new. My name is A (I have a real name, but don't use it online). I have two little dudes and was/am vaguely thinking of swaying for a little lady this year. I am a member over at IG and seriously was buying into all the stuff I read over there. And then I came across a post about this site and have been reading for the past two hours (much to the irritation of my small sons).

To make things a little "worse," we already tried this month and I am in the 2WW. Thankfully, I am quite okay with whatever gender child I get. I couldn't try for a baby if I couldn't be excited about a son as well as a daughter. But I have no doubts that if I got pregnant this month, we will be welcoming some more blue. I clearly got it ALL wrong. Timing, dieting, supplements, all per IG.

But I look forward to having this gigantic resource. I must admit, I think I have a girl-crush on Atomic because her love of science and detail rivals my own. Hence my insane reading of her essays. But HI and I hope to learn more and more as I poke around. If I managed to not get pregnant, I'll certainly be postponing TTC until I can get some stuff out of this site. And if I did, I'll still hang around in hopes of learning and attempting again in the future :)

I second your thoughts on the information being completely overwhelming but in a good way. Welcome!

I just joined this site too! And I was over at IG too, I also have been reading through everything and it is still abit confusing but I think seeing the 2 differences will really help make some decisions for me! I was so stressed over timing and pinpoint o but now I feel alot better lol we are going to ttc a girl in October :)
