OK, well, I've had an odd few weeks to say the least!! Two TTer's already know, and I thank them for their secret keeping :hug: :hug: but it's become time to share with all of you......

It's really a very very very long story, but in a nutshell, I was trying to slim, and doing so well, I lost a stone and a half in 6 weeks, then the weight loss stopped for no reason....strange..... bear_wacko My brother's girlfriend also came to slimming club with me, and she eventually came across the same problem..... WEIRD!!

Anyhows, to cut a long story short, I went to the doctors and she decided to send me for blood tests and the like so I was booked to have that done...... A couple of days before I was due to go in for the tests I wondered......

Eeeeeeek!!! And got the shock of my LIFE!!! Look:

:crackup: :crackup: :crackup: I thought it was wind!!! :crackup: :crackup: Yes I've been given the gift of another child, a shock, but a lovely one at that. This is the scan I had done today. bear_original I'm hoping that all will go well, I can't believe I'm doing this again!! bear_tongue

And my brother's girlfriend, yep, you guessed it, she got the shock of her life too!! She's due a little while after me!! Be careful which slimming classes you join!! :crackup: :crackup: :crackup:

Anyway, I've just started to share my news, so wanted you all to know. :hug: :hug:

Psst - Congrats also to Cat and Jenn, take good care folks!! :hug: :hug:

Clare, that is the best news ever - what an amazing surprise for you. I would adore another one, but my husband doesn't think it is a great idea - he thinks he is past it!!!!! Might think about a slimming club!!! Keep us in touch how everything is going.
