Hi all,

Just wanted to introduce myself to you all.

I am mum to my gorgeous 14 week old boy who was born 2 weeks early and weighing a very small 4Ib 11oz but I am happy to say that he is more than making up for the weight now!!

My LO came via emergency c section after a long, painful induction.

We are from the Gloucestershire area and have a very busy household with a what seems like a zoo to cope with!!

Me and my DF are TTC again (for my sins!!) but I cant wait to extend my family!!

Well thats a little bit about us.

Thanks for reading! x x

Hello Everyone! Im new to this and found this site interesting so thought Id join. Im a 24 yr old,enaged to a wonderful man and have a "almost" step son, who just turned 6. I miscarrieed when I was almost 12 weeks along in September 2008. Its been a rough road..I heard that soon after the D & C, u usually get your "period". Well, I didnt get mine until November and it lasted a long time, quit for a week and now I have been bleeding heavy for almost a month straight. The Doctors did a ultrasound to see if anything was wrong, but they did nsay I have a "bicornuate uterus". If there is anyone out there that has one...do you know if it is hard to conceive?? I heard alot of horroe stories that there is alot of miscarrages when having it. Im just urious and have looked all over...if anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, I'm new here & stumbled upon this forum while reading up stuff on TTC ... This forum rocks! OK, brief introduction of myself ...

Been married to DH for over a yr & half now after dating for 6 long years. We're Dad & Mum to 2 most adorable, lovable furry pooches. Throughout our years together, I've been on the pill or we're using other contraceptives, so it's exciting for us now as we're entering into a new phase of letting nature take its own course.

We've only just started to try for a baby; it's only been our 1st cycle of TTC ... and I've already gotten a this morning and is due anytime this weekend. I'm just hoping now comes soon, so we can move on from here. Hopefully the next cycle would bring us some baby cheer! Just gonna enjoy the fun of BDing with hopes of scoring big-time!

Hello There,

My name is jennifer and I am brand new to this site. To be honest its a little confusing at first and took a while to figure out (still figuring out). Then again, everything seems to be a little slow to me since I got pregnant. Well, I have had a lot of problems with this pregnancy ( 3rd) and have been looking for answers and hope from other women that have gone through much pain like myself. That's when I came across this site. Listening to other women stories gave me much hope. Now, I have a lot of hope myself and would like to share what others freely gave to me. I know now that anything is possible and the power of positive thinking is remarkable. Please help me in understanding this site better and where would I go to post my message of hope. Lots of Love to all.

Hello All,

I am a newbie. My husband and I have just recently found out the good news that we are going to have a baby. We were disappointed a few months ago as I had a miscarriage early on in the pregnancy. It is still early for this one as well but I also feel different so we are both hoping and praying that this time will be better. I am looking forward to meeting other people who are going through this wonderful experience as well.
