Just joined Mumsnet and after joining loads of other sites and failing to use them...i'm going change this time! Even though I don't understand the acronyms you lot use.
I'm 39, have a 6 yr old, 2 step kids, work full time, had missed miscarriage last year, 1 f tube, endometriosis and partner had vasectomy reversal. So, my baby due in Oct is a miracle to me in so many ways.
Like to hear from anyone due in Oct to share fears and elation etc

Hello Aqualung - I am due in October too smile

Welcome to Mumsnet.

I have no idea why I am still awake as I rarely manage past 8pm at the moment. Anyway there are loads of us on the due Oct thread so see you there smile

Congrats by the way.

Message

Emphasis: To bold a word, surround it with asterisks, so *hello* will display hello. For underline use _ , so _hello_ gives hello. For italics use ^, so ^hello^ gives hello. To strike out a word, surround it with two hyphens either side, so --dog-- gives dog

Links and smileys: To insert a smiley face,

, type [smile] or :)
For a big grin,

, type [grin] or :o
For a wink,

, type [wink]
For a shocked face,

, type [shock]
For an angry face,

, type [angry]
For an embarrassed face,

, type [blush]
For a sad face,

, type [sad] or :(
For an envious face,

, type [envy]
For a sceptical face,

, type [hmm]

Links The simplest way to insert a link is to enter the link itself, surrounded by [[ and ]]. So if you type [[www.mumsnet.com]], the link will display as http://www.mumsnet.com. If you want your link to display text other than the web address itself, leave a space after the address then add the text before the ]]. So "Look at [[www.mumsnet.com this page]]", would display "Look at this page".
