We live in Blackheath in SE London and Im a scientist and work in a fetal medicine centre and scanning department and the lovely OH is an equities trader. We have been together 8 years and couldnt live without him, he is awesome.

Hi everybody :wave:

I'm Rosy, I'm 19 - 20 in January, and come from the capital of New Zealand - Wellington. Overall I love living here, but the weather could sure do with a few adjustments sometimes! We get all the wind in this city, and right now it's meant to be summer but it's always raining on and off!

My OH Tom, who is 21, and I have been together since April 2008. We met at an electronics store where we both worked and were good mates for awhile before realizing we were great for each other. Poor guy, he was right under my nose for awhile and I didn't even notice

We're expecting our first baby together, a little boy. He came as a bit of a surprise to us both, but we're thrilled (OH is still a little shellshocked I think!!). This will be the fourth grandson for my parents and the first grandchild for Tom's - everyone is very excited and supportive which is lovely

I work for the NZ Police doing Firearms Licensing...sounds fancy, but it's pretty basic data entry really. What can I say...it pays the bills Though I used to compile photo lineups which were pretty fun, you really do get desensitized to people with tatts/scars all over their faces after awhile!

As for my personality...I'm rather outgoing and have no problem speaking to people I don't know. I'm a stickler for manners, hence people tell me I'm rather polite. I'm also very friendly if I do say so myself I have a bit of a short fuse which seems to have gotten worse whilst pregnant But I'm working on it. I am an avid cat lover - yes, I am one of those people who will stop to pet other peoples' cats ...we have our own cat named Slinky who is just lovely, she talks to me

As for my favourites: My favourite food...I have many, but can't go past tuna sushi (obviously sadly can't eat this right now!) and anything sweet! Ice cream comes to mind. My favourite movie is A Clockwork Orange, and my favourite band is The Doors

Sorry for the essay and the smiley overload! Here are some piccies for you guys! First is of me last week with an adorable bunny; second is me and Tom; then another of myself, Tom, his best friend James and James' girlfriend Sarah at Tom's mum's 50th; one of bump last week, and lastly our kitty Slinky investigating our pizza box

Hi everyone, Lovely idea...

I'm Julia and married to OH PJ for about 18 months. We TTC on our honeymoon and finanally got BFP about a year later!

This is our first baby and first grandchild on PJ's side and third on my side. I'm finally into the glowing stage of pg and am loving every second of it. Have got to the stage where I sit or stand with a silly look on my face and stroke my bump!!

Pj is my toyboy...he's almost exactly 22 hours younger than me!! We got married the day before my 29th Birthday and 2 days before his! ... it means he has no excuse to forget my b'day or our anniversary!!!!!

we have two cats who have been my surrogate children until now.... but we still love them to pieces and hope they don't freak out too much when Junior comes along!

I've attached a pic of me and PJ from our wedding.

[sandrass]

Hey I thought Id join in hope thats ok!

My name is Nicole (not actually Sandra ) and Im 22, 23 in January. My husband is 30. I have been with him for 4 years and I have known him for almost 10 years. (we did not date until I was 19). This will be our first baby, and we are very happy about it!

Our baby is due on May 20th which happens to be my moms birthday. It is my moms first grandchild but not my MIL's.


Here is a wedding pic and scan pics from 14 weeks Any guesses on boy or girl? haha.

 

[sabriena]

I guess I'll come in here and do this too, since I've looked at everyone else!

I'm Sabriena and I'm 27, my husband is Jamie and he's 28. We've been married for nine years, going on ten next year. We actually met over the internet and he's from Australia and I'm from the US. This is our first child as we wanted to do awhile by ourselves and have no kids.

We do have a dog named Ruby who is a German Shepherd/Malamute mix as well as a couple cats and a soft shelled turtle.

We're due on April 22 and still don't know what gender it is because the baby was a stubborn butt and wouldn't show the goods. Here's a picture of us:

 

[greenlady]

I guess I'll come in here and do this too, since I've looked at everyone else!

Me too!

I'm Edwina, mostly people call me Eddie. I'm 30, Australian, my husband Jackson is 39 and a London boy born and bred. We had our first date 10 years ago yesterday, when I was a 20-year-old Aussie working and travelling in Europe (as we all do). We spent a total of six months apart just after we got together as I had moved back to Oz, but then he came and lived with me for a year, and in 2001 we moved back to London and have been here since then. Jackson is a really passionate chef and also a blues guitarist and harmonica player, only gets paid for cheffing though! I am communications officer for the Royal College of Anaesthetists, I get to design books and stuff mostly so I really enjoy my job.

We got married in 2006 in Camden, London, and it was such a blast. My mum and Dad, three brothers and some friends all came over for the wedding. We vist Oz every few years, not often enough because its so expensive, but next time I go I want to move back for good, hopefully 2011.

This is our first baby, we're on team yellow! Here's some pics, us on our wedding day, on holiday at his mum's in France this year, and me on my 30th birthday in May.

hi my name is Natalie, im 30 years old and live in a village called erskine near glasgow. My husband is called David and he is also 30 years old from the same place. We bought our own house 3 years ago then we were married on 11th July this year and this is our first baby.

We are due on 3rd June and cant wait.

David works as a bus driver and I was a sales account manager for 10 years but gave up my job when we discovered i was pregnant so going to be a stay at home mum.

We first met when we were 14 and used to be on our community youth council together, then we got together aboout 5 years ago when i came back from spending a year in Australia and met up on a night out.

We have a wee rabbit called Fergie and enjoy eating out, karaoke and generally just having a giggle.

Nice to get to know you all xx
