    Oh, RoryRory
    Why did you have to start this thread...? Beautiful stories from everyone that make me cry. I'm at work and keep getting teared up everytime I read a new post. I'm surprised my work mates haven't noticed the sniffles coming from my direction.

    I remembered another thing that is a special memory. My DH isn't a soppy person who shares his emotions often. So when I opened my emails one morning when I got to work and saw one there from my DH (he's a tradie so doesn't go on the computer often) I thought what has he sent me. He ended up writing a beautiful little note saying "I just wanted to let you know that I love my wife and our Squishy (bubs nickname)and I can't wait to watch you grow with our child" I burst into tears at my desk and had to duck off to the bathroom to compose myself. I ended up printing the email to tuck into my cars sunvisor so that I can be reminded of it whenever I'm in the car. He phoned a few hours after to see if I'd read it and I got mad at him for making me cry.

    I love these stories...keep em coming

    Sushee - what a beautiful story, I can understand why you burst into tears!

    After TTC for nearly 6 mths, AF was about 5 days late. I went to the supermarket to buy a test kit and hopefully not run into anyone I know. I went to the spot and there was a man looking at the cold and flu stuff right next to the kits. I fluffed around the area for ages until he finally left. Snuck the kit under a magazine and quickly gave it to the girl. Raced home (DH wasn't home yet), did the test and it was double lines almost immediately! I had to wait the prescribed time and I just watched it, sitting on the floor. My heart was racing and I couldn't wait for DH to come home. He rang to say he would be a little late - typical when you've got good news they are late! He came home and I was fumbling my words and a bit flustered. I went to our bedroom, made him sit on the bed and close his eyes (I bet he was thinking something else was going to happen LOL!!) and handed him the test. He opened and looked at it a bit strange then looked up with tears in his eyes "Is this what I think it is" and I said yes! He jumped up from the bed, picked me up, swung me around, in tears saying "we are going to have a baby". We were both over the moon.

    To this day, the test stick is in Chelseas special memories book - DH wouldn't let me throw it out!!!!!
