Getting Started

Hello all.

I feel the need to apologize in advance if my blog entries in the future lack proper grammar, spelling, or coherent thought. Often, I have my "computer time" at ten-past God-knows-what in the morning when I am half-asleep, or half-awake, depending upon how you look at it. So if and when the time comes where one of my entries makes absolutely no sense, I promise to do my best to edit it later!

So why am I here? Why am I blogging about "the road to pregnancy". Well, there is one simple answer: therapy. This whole process of getting "knocked up" is driving me absolutely bonkers, and I need an outlet. I know what some of you are thinking: "Why are you SO stressed out? You've been trying for less than a year!!!!" This is true, very well true. In fact, we've only been "really" trying for about six months. However, due to the fact that my body is very clearly rallying against me, I have not ovulated in that time. Mind you, it is not uncommon to have some issues after taking the birth control pill for an extended period of time, but come on! I am not even getting my ever-aggrevating "monthly friend" for months at a time. So yes, we're only been trying for "less than a year", but nonetheless, it has been a frustrating experience so far. And it is my hope that this leap into the land of blogging will help me to work through my feelings and frustrations....and perhaps, in time, a whirlwind of happy emotion?
