Told I could never have children - Wrong!

[Pitterpatter2]

I have just GOT to tell somebody!

I have been married 8 years and was told before the marriage that I could never have children. So no contraception for all this time. But I missed my last two periods and the doctor told me today that I am 100% certainly expecting a baby!!

My husband is currently on a plane to Singapore but he now knows the brilliant news. Mumsnetters can be the second to know bacause I have lurked her for so long.

I am so excited!!!!!

How exciting for you pitterpatter
Really pleased for you and your dh!

How wonderful! Congratulations!

I am currently expecting a Niece (due 6th Nov)

I wish u all the best in the world

Is it possible that I felt the baby moving today (about 17 weeks)? It felt like something was fluttering inside me. It would be so exciting if it is the baby!

Yes deffinately possible to feel movement.

Congratulations!

I felt first flutterings at 16 weeks so,most it could be the baby.

This is a great thread! So pleased for you!
Keep updating.

Definitely

what a lovely outcome pitterpatter

Am so pleased to read after your being told you could not have children, that this is the outcome.

congratulations!

can i recommend you to join a mumsnet antenatal thread? its lots of fun and they are generally very supportive

then you can talk about all the little details as you go along. years or even months later its hard to remember thing like when you first started feeling x or y

aww what a lovely thread! feel free to join us other due in dec ladies here

Just caught this thread, and what fantastic news!

awww what a lovely thread!

I was told i could't have children - 5 pregnancies and 3 children later .....

I'm feeling the baby move quite a lot now. Yesterday when I was in Court (I'm a solicitor) the baby gave the biggest wriggle yet: right in the middle of my closing statement!

DH loves to stroke my tummy and to feel the baby move. Strange but I never had him down as a softie! My breasts are also growing which seems to amuse us both.

You wait until it get much bigger and starts to proper jackboot about. My DD used to get her head under my ribs, she was breach and born by C sec, so inside head up until 38 weeks ouch!

My tummy facinated me till she was born, the moving around is the best bit!!

Hiccups was my favourite - and always seemed to happen just as I was dropping off to sleep at night - and I'd get the giggles, so sleep was forgotten!

Didn't see this thread before - CONGRATULATIONS on your miracle

and how lovely to have such a nice wriggly one...

Such a great thread, when can we start talking about names?

Congratulations what a lovely story.

What a delightful story, so excited for you and your DH, what an amazing journey to be embarking upon. CONGRATULATIONS!!! x

Oh, this is such a lovely exciting thread! I am so, so, so happy for you, PitterPatter!

Many many congratulations! What great news!

What a lovely thread. Our friends are expecting DC2 next month after being told no more babies following him having chemo a few years back - a little miracle. Congratulations! :)
