Hey there ladies! I have finally decided to write something about myself so i am more than a face. This is my first pregnancy and I am absolutely thrilled to meet my son or daughter. (We find out July 11th) I have been looking for an area to meet ladies who are in the same boat so it is easier to relate...the people closest to me have not had a baby so they have been a little stand-offish!

Cecil (the love of my life) has two children already, a four year old daughter and a two year old son. We have them half the week and I have loved having them in my life. Cecil is a wonderful father and I am very lucky to have him as my life partner. We have only dated about a year but we knew our relationship was too great and plan on spending the rest of our lives together. We moved in together in November, 2006 and in January of this year we decided to stop taking any precautions against pregnancy. To our surprise, in March we found out we were pregnant. It happened so quickly and honestly, I had tried with my ex-husband...I didn't think I could get pregnant at all!

April 20th was our first appointment. All tests came back normal and we found out our due date was November 28th but on the paper they gave us it said the baby was due November 27th...I go with that since it is a whole day sooner than the 28th!

I look forward to using this site to express worries and joys and look forward to meeting all the wonderful ladies sharing the same experience as I am.
