A Christmas miracle!

In the last 13 months, me and DH have been trying for a baby and have had 3 miscarriages, one at 5 weeks, a missed miscarriage found at 12 weeks & a blighted ovum found at 7 weeks. The last one was just in October. I had sort of given up hope and decided to just wait and see what happens next year, me and DH wrapped a baby blanket and put it under the tree at the start of December (an old wives tale that it'll bring you a baby for the Christmas after). I didn't track ovulation this month so was unsure of my dates properly but I had a rough idea. Well I had a strong positive test this morning, a true Christmas miracle!! We are just praying this baby sticks for us and becomes our miracle 👶🏻❤️

A Christmas miracle!

Oh how lovely OP. That is properly cheering ❤️

If you are looking for non alcoholic drinks, Gordon 0% gin or 0% Aperol with tonic water or bitter lemon are both great. I'm menopausal and can't drink as much. Non alcoholic beers are better now too.
