Re: Intro Thread...

Iam Jackie, been married to DH for over 2 years, though we've been together for over 9. I am 24, he is 27. I eventually want kids, but I like to have my ducks in a row as they say. Plus, I see how DH's nephews behave and it totally turns me off-(its great birth control!lol) We just bought a house, we will be moving in May. Dh owns his own business and I am an unemployed teacher ...I also like to travel, we went to Europe in November and would love to go back. We also love going to dinner and to the movies and just enjoying our quiet married life right now.

Hi all,

I'm Rachel, DH is Jeff. Married 5/08 and currently living in Nassau county. We're childless for now (starting TTC late summer/early fall) but are proud parents of a huge gray tuxedo cat named Sonny. DH is a teacher on LI and I'm a guidance counselor in NYC.

I love to travel with DH, cook, and spend time with my friends and my family.

Nice to meet everyone!

My name is Christina (27) and my DH is Dan (25). I am a teacher and my husband is an engineer. We have been married for almost 2 years and have been together since 2001.

Currently, we are childless by choice. One day we would like to have children, but we know that it will probably be difficult due to IF issues.

Re: Intro Thread...

HI,

I'm Heather, FH is Tim and we are 25 and 28 respectively. We live in Suffolk, we have a kitty named Champ, a chocolate lab named Ellie and a German shorthaired pointer named Julie. We are childless by choice at this point, no TTC for a loooong time in our book. Sometimes I wonder if I ever even want kiids of my own....only time will tell

I work for a vitamin company in consumer affairs, FH works in propane and owns a small handyman business on the side.

We have a terrific life...lots of love and laughter, great friends and family...we don't plan on changing that to include a baby in the near future. There's still soooooo much we wanna do/see/expierence without having a child.

We have a niece and 2 nephews, one of whom is our godson, and we dote and adore those kids with all of our hearts...at this point in our lives, they are all we need to cure the wayward "baby itch" and all is good once we hand them back to the parents

I am very excited to see this board and hope to make some good friends!!!

Hi, I am Patty and my DH is Jon. We have been happily married since October 7, 2007.

We have been trying to conceive on & off since we got married (I am a lurker on the TTC board).

We currently live in Woodbury and we love entertaining our family & friends. I love trying out new recipes on DH & his dad when he is in town. We are huge NY METS Fans!!

I have recently discovered that I have a creative side and I am pretty good at. I like to crochet, paint and do other kinds of crafts. I am going to learn how to do cross stitching.

Hi, I'm Susi and my DH is Mike. We were married on 10/27/2007, been together since 2003. I was an avid poster on LIW (SusiBtoM).

We are not TTC because of our ages, I'm 42 and DH will be 47 in two months.
I've always wanted children, but Mike doesn't and I knew that going into our relationship. I believe that I've come to terms with my not having a child (my heart does feel heavy at times).
My baby was my beloved cat Munchkin, who passed away two years ago at the age of 13 after a short illness.

Mike is a bus operator for the MTA, and I am a sales & logistics coordinator for a Japanese trading conglomerate. We actually met on the bus - I was his passenger.

We like to travel, to go out with friends, just to hang out together.

Hey there - Bonnie and Josh, married 6-21-08.

My husband works in investment management, and I am a 6th grade NYC teacher.

We have two pets (a dog and cat) and they're our lives!

We love to travel, and live in Manhattan.

We're too selfish to have children...and don't know if that will change anytime soon.

Re: Intro Thread...

Re: Intro Thread...

Hi, I'm Lori Beth, and my DH and I just got married on Oct. 26 We are both in our early 30s. We do want kids but have decided to wait a few years to have more us time and try to get our finances in order. I was laid off in Dec and just got a new job, DH is a teacher. We also bought a house in Dec! Bad timing LOL DH has 3 cats as well so our house is plenty full right now!

Re: Intro Thread...

Hi! My name is Melissa and DH is Paul. We were married in October 2008. I've been lurking on this site for awhile because I have some friends on here, but I have finally decided to join and post!

I am a speech therapist and DH is a deli manager. We are going to try and enjoy our first year or so of marriage alone and hopefully start trying for children next spring/summer and once finances are in order and we have a house, or whatever comes first!

Re: Intro Thread...

Hi all!

My name is Dani and DH is Monty. We currently live in Philly but we are both from NY and were married on LI. I'm a service coordinator for Early Intervention in PA and he is a Naval Contractor. I am the proud stepmother of an amazing child who lives w/ her BM in NC. We aren't ready for children together and are uncertain if we ever will be. Why? Because I'm selfish with my time and energy. I'm very free spirited and enjoy picking up and going when I like...However, every now and then I feel a tinge of the fever...

Re: Intro Thread...

Hello. I'm Danielle and DH is Tim. We just got married 1-3-09. Tim and I have been together since 05 and everything is fabulous.

We recently adopted a cat. Her name is Annie and she's the love of our lives.

I work as a Clerk for Stony Brook Hospital and Tim is a Personal Banker. I go to school at night so I can finish up my Bachelor's Degree in Accounting.

We currently have no plans to have a family.

Re: Intro Thread...

Hi, all! I am Maria and I am 42. My husband Andrew is 35. We got married when I was 39 and immediately tried for a child but went on to find out I have a chromosomal abnormality (balanced translocation) which is causing me difficulty in conceiving and holding a pregnancy. I had 2 tries with fertility drugs and produced no follicles so my ivf cycles were cancelled and as of now we are childless and more than likely we wil stay that way and get more dogs. :) We are considering donor egg, but it is a huge MAYBE.
We love dogs and are owned by a beautiful brindle Bullmastiff with whom we are in love with. He is my baby.

My husband also loves Harley's, he has 3 bikes he is working on. I love to crochet, I love going to concerts, movies and out to eat. We love the NY Yankees. I was born and raised in the Bronx but moved to Suffolk in 2006 as my DH and I bought his childhood home.

He is an ironworker (lather) WITH Local 46 and I am a licensed sales producer with Allstate.

I am a Facebook addict big time! Add me! :)

Re: Intro Thread...

Hi...
I'm Diane and my DH is Mike. I'm a Software Engineer and my DH is an LVT.

We got married on 10/13/07.

We are now in our 50's and won't be having any children.

But...we have lots of children with paws. We've rescued all of them.

A few of them know when my DH or I have had a bad day. They come over to us and want to "snuzzle"....and before you know it, you're feeling a little better...at least for the moment.
