Introducing myself! Oops!

I realised yesterday I had posted a post and hadn't really introduced myself.

Im 27 y/o and have been with DH for just over 11 years, married since September 12.

We will be first timers when our LO comes along (EDD 10 Aug) and I am very inquisitive about the whole pregnancy/birth process. I'm the type who thinks of a question and thinks "I know I'll ask online" so forgive me if there's any odd/stupid questions posted over the coming weeks.

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Ask away! I too wanted to find out as much as possible before my first, I wish I had discovered Mumsnet back then! Now ready to pop with our second child and I have found Mumsnet to be a great source of information and support.
I've asked questions on here that I would be much too embarrassed to ask someone in 'real life' and I find you tend to get a more honest answer (whether you like it or not!) than if you had just asked a friend or midwife.
The world of pregnancy and babies can be scary at times but I promise you it will be the most rewarding amazing thing you ever do. Smile

Thanks for your lovely supportive reply AlwaysDancing1234. I must say I'm a bit of a knowledge freak and IMO if you are armed with knowledge, then at least you have tried lol

God, I asked SO many questions on here when I was pg, I didn't have a clue and everything seemed weird. That's what MN is here for though!
