Feeling soooooooo impatient at the minute. It's been a week since panel said yes and that the ADM was being expedited and I've still heard NOTHING! I finish work today so very excited about that as I know my colleagues are planning something (nice I hope!) and expect I will spend the day in tears....for a change Smile

The butterflies in my tummy have changed to rocks, so excited to know I will be meeting my boy any day now but also terrified that this little person is going to hate me, or I'll be rubbish at this mum lark or God forbid both!!

Far too much time to over think it all.

Congratulations.

Don't be surprised if you feel underwhelmed on meeting.

You won't be rubbish, you don't need to be perfect, only good enough.

It will be exhausting, but lovely. Smile

Best wishes. (8 years in, still loving it).
