Where it all began..

Jason and I met in 2001 and although he took his sweet time to propose, we happily got married 7 years later on June 28, 2008.  We spent the first year of marriage enjoying each other, taking a late honeymoon to Jamaica, dreaming of our lifetime future together and getting more comfortable with our lives now that we were officially joined. We dreamed of our perfect life and we knew we wanted a family, for sure two children (boys if you asked Jason) and having a third was definitely an option. As long as they were healthy and we were all happy.
Then in August 2009, we decided to take the next big step in our lives...and I got off The Pill. It had been over a decade since I had been off The Pill and I really didn't know my body anymore, so although we weren't trying really hard at first, I was still tracking my cycles. After 6 months with nothing, we still weren’t concerned, but decided to take it up a notch.
