woohoo!

Well... I got my results back and guess what...?? 'perfect'

so finally... kicked Steve's butt into telling me his thoughts on the whole 'baby scenario' and after teasing and changing the subject about 30 times he finally agreed!

so from this month... am of the pill and trying for a baby! I'm not going to do the whole charting thing... not fr starters anyway. Just play it by ear and if it happens it happens.

All my online friends are betting as to when I'll fell pregnant... and I'll have to do a tally up for them!! *laughs*

It's exciting yet scary all at the same time.

I was reading through a list of things that... people recommend to do before trying to conceive and while trying.

most of it, for example diet, and quitting smoking, slowing if not completely stopping alcohol intake etc. I've done already. Our diet has always been pretty good, I quit smoking almost 2 months ago, and alcohol i have a bit but will cut down to basically nothing over the next couple of weeks.

so YAY!!!! One more step closer to being mum and dad!

Will the journey start?

Well... I get my Glucose Tolerance Test results back from the doctor tonight.

Hopefully they're clear. If they are Steve and I will hopefully be discussing tonight whether this month is THE month. The month to go off contraception, the month to start pregnancy vitamins, and most importantly THE month to start trying for a baby.

I'm both excited and nervous all at once... I seriously haven't been sleeping too well thinking about it all already...

I just have this huge craving and cluckiness to be a mum... I adore all the newborns I see and dote over every one of them! and yes yes... I know you can give those babies back when a nappy needs changing or they need feeding or they're crying or whatever and i can't do that with my own!

But I don't care!! I'll happily take every single piece of my baby... problems and all if they arise (fingers crossed they don't) and love them and cherish them more than anything.

Guess that motherly instinct they speak of is really coming out in full force in me at the moment.

so yeah... fingers crossed my tests come back fine tonight!

First Ever Entry!

Well I'm all new to this... so forgive me if it's terrible... hopefully it'll grow on me!

the main reason I decided to make this blog... is because hopefully soon Steve and i will be trying to conceive our first baby!

it's such an exciting yet terrifying thought... that i decided to share it... the up and downs as we try and the whinges and whines through the pregnancy as it unfolds...

sharing some information i find along the way in regards to products, health issues etc., and am already gathering some of that up!

Blinkies!

I'm a member of an Australian Baby forum called beyondthebaby.

All the girls are wonderful there... So helpful and friendly, plus I've gone crazy with blinkies there for everyone.

I AM THE BLINKIE QUEEN!! *laughs*
