Hi. I've been a lurker for far too long, so here I am at last, doing something about it.
I've been lurking since TD days. I was going to sign up on the day everything started to go pear shaped, so I waited for the dust to settle. Then I was diagnosed with an exceptionally rare heart condition, and a pregnancy that was already complicated went a bit crazy. (I have extremely well controlled type II diabetes, but I found out that diabetes always goes haywire during pregnancy. I also have hypertension usually, but my blood pressure got very low when I was pregnant.)
Laura Katherine was born on the 15th June by medically necessary c-section. We had some complications but everything is fine now.
Laura has a lot of hair and she's huge - 98th centile for weight and 99.5 for height. She can roll but prefers not to. She can sit well now that she sees the point of it. She's completely obsessed with standing up, and she walks holding our fingers, but refuses to try crawling. She is formula fed (bfing didn't work for us) and we're doing BLW. We use cloth nappies.
The last word may be a giveaway that we're in the UK - southern Scotland, to be precise.
I don't have a favourite poster, but I do feel for people who had trouble ttc. L was conceived on the day of our first appointment at the infertility clinic! I also feel for everyone who had a difficult pregnancy.
I'll try to work out how to post a picture of L and how to add a profile picture.
