Calling all Lurkers!
Mr. Bee's post two weeks ago about time spent lurking has called me to (procrastinated) action. And since no one likes to be The New Girl, I thought we could all announce ourselves together.
So, who's new around here? How long have you been following along silently? And which posts have been your favorite?

I'll answer myself first. 
Midwest gal, married for 5 years, TTC for 10months, just started OPK this cycle.
I've been reading for 45ish days and LOVE the recent name posts- as a name nerd I adore seeing people's choices. Also the POAS threads, I have cheered and cried along with some of you in the shadows so far.

Hello hello!
I forgot my log in information for almost a year, so I've been a VERY silent lurker. Lol... looking forward to getting more involved.
Been married 6 years. DD is 5, ttc #2! Suffered a m/c in September, so in all honesty the tww & loss boards are where I'm at right now

@catwoman so sorry for your loss, and I'll see you on the Tww boards.
Thank you all!

I'm not new, but never properly introduced myself. Hello! I've been here for about 3 months now and found this place when my DD was about a month old. I had no idea what the hell I was doing, and searched for an online forum where I could learn stuff! She's 4.5 months now, and we are hanging in there.
I'm obsessed with her sleep and eastubg, so those have been a great help. This whole forum has been a lifesaver. Babies are craaaaazy.

@LibbyLou: Welcome! I'm from the midwest originally, too. Good luck on the TTC journey!
@Pumpkin Pie: Welcome to you, too! I have a 12-week-old son, and his sleep is my number-one thing to focus on these days:-).

Hi! I just joined a few weeks ago, after lurking for a couple of months. I have an almost 9 month old daughter.
I liked the postpartum recovery blogs (after I gave birth I felt like I was the only one with a rough recovery so it was nice to know I wasn't alone). I also like the photography blogs cause I was getting so frustrated with my blurry phone camera pics!

Hello!
I've been lurking for a while while going through IF treatments, Now that I have a one month old girl I thought it would be time to join.
I have been enjoying the breastfeeding boards as we have been having struggles with that. I used to lurk majorly in the IF boards.

Hello!
I'm somewhat new lol! I've been lurking for about 4 months and have just recently began becoming a little bit more involved on threads!
I'm 28, my DH is 28 and we've been together 6 years and married for 1.5. We live in Texas! No kiddos yet and I have recently been diagnosed with Hashimoto's so luckily we are now aware of it and still plan on starting our TTC journey in April since my meds are under control!
I've been recently frequenting the Name boards and the TTC boards. Oh, and the nursery planning ones! I love seeing all the Bee's cute nursery plans and photos! Super excited to learn more from fellow Bee's as we go through this journey!

My wife is due on Feb. 17th (Boy) and we have loved reading old posts to learn about pregnancy, labor, and parenting. As first time parents we like to be as prepared as we can and the site has been wonderful.

Hello, I just joined last week, but have been lurking for well over a year.
I'm from the Toronto area in Ontario Canada. I have been with my DH for over ten years going on eleven next month; but only have been married to him for just over a year now. We were high school sweethearts you can say. We are pregnant with our first, and it is a girl. She is due to arrive March 17th, so it is fast approaching.

Hi, everybody!
I live in Chicago & have been a HB member for 2.5 years, but was primarily a lurker - I only very recently got involved with the boards when DH and I decided to start NTNP and TTC, and I love the community.
The TTC/TWW/POAS posts are my favorite, but I am pretty obsessed with reading birth stories, too! Keep 'em coming

Well I guess I will come out of lurkdom, 
I have an 8 week old daughter, and have enjoyed reading about other's experiences with pregnancy, birth, and now sleeping, feeding and baby developments!

Great idea! I've been lurking for more than a year - love reading the blog posts, checking out the name forums, etc.
I'm a Texas native with a 20 month old son. My husband and I have been married nearly 5 years and were high school sweethearts. I work out of the home part time, and stay home part time.
Excited to get more involved!

I joined a few weeks ago after lurking since March. My son is 4 months today. I love all of the parenting boards and sometimes am on the other boards.
We currently live in DC area but met in Texas and lived in Louisiana. I'm military, but we'll be here for at least a few more years.

Hello everyone!
I live in the San Francisco Bay Area. My husband and I have been married for a year and a half and have just started TTC.
I joined last fall (pretty much as soon as I found this site) but have just been silently following along until now. I have been paying the most attention to posts relating to TTC and planning for a baby. I have also really been loving the naming posts!
