Well I'm actually 35 now

So I introduced myself a couple of months ago, but wasn't actually 35.

Had my birthday on Sunday, so I guess I'm finally allowed here :-)

We plan to TTC March/April ish of next year, but I like hanging out here and getting to know you ladies. 

I was recently diagnosed with Graves disease (a hyper-thyroid issue), which my Dr is working to get stabilised. So that may affect our TTC plans. My Dr sounds positive but has told me to put off any TTC until he feels he has a handle on my condition, and even then I'll talk through risk factors with him.

Hope you are all getting ready for a lovely Christmas season.
