Hi, I'm new to Mumsnet. I'm interesting in making links in relation to pre-pregnancy - particularly through the conception thread, but also others. I am at the beginning of a new project on the history of trying to conceive and prepregnancy and am concerned to think about how it might offer space for reflection on the problems and experiences that people encounter today. My new blog site, if you're interested is here: www.bbk.ac.uk/conceivinghistories/
