TTC #1 just starting. hello everyone.

Erin
I'd just thought I'd say hello as I'm just starting TTC and its all very daunting and filled with emotions I've not experienced before. I'm in a great relationship and so happy, but ive been single for most of my 20s and 30s, and being 37, I'd almost gotten used to the idea that I wouldn't find that guy and have my own kids, given my age and chances of falling pregnant. I'd even thought about whether to have a baby on my own. But it's all changed in the last year and I've allowed myself to wonder and hope I could be a mum. Now it's a big emotional chance I feel I'm taking. I've just gotten my first period after starting to try. Wow. It's sadness and emptiness. I get how people on this site feel now! I'm glad we are all on here together.
