My friend Tara raved about hellobee and I finally signed up. My husband asked me to remove my IUD 5 months early as his Christmas present so we could start trying. (We've been married for a year and a half, and together for five)

I had my IUD removed in early December (passed out when it came out) and had my first period in FIVE YEARS today. I felt like I was in the 8th grade all over again.

My husband and I are both 30 and I'm very excited to have a baby. I'm beyond ready, my husband is still a little freaked out. But honestly, are you ever really ready or not freaked out?

So here's to cramps for the first time in half a decade, tampons again, and hopefully pregnancy!
