He arrived a few days after our fourth wedding anniversary; we started trying on our first wedding anniversary. We'd been together for three years before we got married.

Got pregnant after two months! DS1 was born well before our anniversary of meeting as he was premature.

Twenty five years later still going strong.

About 3 months when I found out I was pregnant, so a few weeks when it happened. Complete accident, but also the best thing that ever happened. We had 20 years together and were so happy. Even his kids were delighted he was finally happy, and are close to their little brother.

Found out we were expecting after 3 months. Obviously not planned as we were only 20/21. 19 years later we’re still together and about to celebrate our 17th wedding anniversary.
