Oh and another thing ...

I've been looking at Mothercare a lot because it's the one place everyone knows about but I have found an awesome site called Kiddicare that carry most of the same stock but often at massively reduced prices! Amazon is also great for finding things a bit cheaper. =D
I thought I would share a bit about myself...

I'm currently suffering from post traumatic stress disorder which I've had for around ten years now but at last I am getting well again due to some excellent mental health services. I am no longer taking any medication and making huge strides each day towards full health.

It's great to finally be in a place mentally that means I go fulfil my dream of becoming a Mum.

I am wondering if this is a whole new kind of craziness though ... I am finding myself endlessly looking at baby stuff online! Do all women get this clucky?

Could I be so Lucky?

Not so long ago me and my other half decided to try for a baby. I am 28 and he is 31 so we feel like we've waited long enough. Like a lot of people we have tried to wait until the "perfect" time but it seems if we wait for that day we will be waiting forever.

Being a Mum is something I have always wanted, maybe not so much when I was a little girl, but since I have left home I have wanted a child so I am beyond happy now!

Anyway today I did a test, it's been 5 weeks since my last period and there was the feintest of feint pink lines! To my utter dismay the second pink line disapeared quickly. Now I know all about the evaporation marks, ghosting etc that tests can show but this was an actual PINK line.

I am going to wait another week before I test again, fingers crossed it wasn't wishful thinking making me imagine the positive test!
