Hi! My name is Melodie! Welcome to my TTC blog. I'm 29 years old, and my husband Aaron is 32. We've been married for four years, and have been trying to start our family since December of 2009. In the meantime we have two fur-babies, Oscar and Gretchen. Together we live in the city of Mesa, Arizona.
This blog will follow us on our TTC journey. It won't always be pretty and you may find yourself reading something you deem "too private to share". I don't plan to censor myself as this is a place for me to just let it all out.
If you don't like it, don't read it.
But if you can stand my ramblings, thank you for the support.
No period since getting off birth control. Insurance is finally in place, time for the first Doctor's appointment.
