Haven't really been around much on m_b, since I stepped down as mod. (It's just not the same "feeling" over there for me... for one, there's too many "newbies" that drive me insane with their silly questions.)
Stash and I are still taking the "natural approach" with ttc. I haven't really been trying all that hard though, because it all seems futile to me so I don't put so much effort into it (no charting or bbt taking, you know?). I know that our next step with the RE is really IVF... but you know how that goes, no insurance coverage for it and too expensive right now to pay out of pocket (and not even 100% guaranteed to be successful!)
Also, I don't know if you read in my journal here, we suffered a devastating family loss last month. Stash's parent's home had a fire -- his father was burned semi-badly but is now at home recovering. His mother, on the other hand, unfortunately was not as lucky. She passed away on May 19th as a result of the injuries she sustained in the smoke and fire. So, needless to say, our hearts have been heavy and ttc has been put on the back-burner for that reason as well.
All in all, we've been trying to get things back to "normal" moving on and such... Its been hard of course, but we have each other and we just keep living from day to day.
Hope all is well with you, Raj & Ria. I'm going to "friend" your lj -- do the same with mine, so we can keep up with each other!
