The Beginning of Something Cathartic

I had some reservations about starting this blog. I wasn't sure if the subject of the blog was something that should remain a personal matter or should be shared with the public. I wasn't sure if people would think I was looking for attention and sympathy. The truth is though; I need this. I am known in my family as someone who tends to share a little too much about my life through facebook statuses and tweets. What did I eat for breakfast? What are my plans for the day? How am I feeling? If you want to know, just check facebook. I have always been someone who can voice their opinion, thoughts, feelings, etc better through writing rather than vocally. You will always find me with a list of things to do. If I need to speak with Chris about an important issue, you will find it in a letter. Do I need to apologize for something? You'll find it in an "I'm Sorry" card. For me, writing this blog is a way to heal and if I can help others by sharing what I am going through, than that is an added bonus. With so many family members and friends living out of state, this is also a way to keep them informed of what is happening in Chris' and my life. This blog's content will mostly cover what my husband and I have and will go through in order to conceive.
We have been married nearly two years and have been together for almost four years.  We live in a beautiful home in Windsor, CT and we have two wonderful pets; a dog, Bender and a cat, Fry. Chris is currently employed at a well paying job that has allowed me to quit my job at Wells Fargo Advisors to pursue a career in Nursing. At ages 25 and 30 - we seem to be doing pretty well...and we are...but something is missing. We bought the three bedroom home with the hopes of filling the house with our own family...so far, no such luck.
