Hi ladies

*scuffs shoes bashfully* Is anyone welcome to join? My DS Elliott turns 1 on 17 July, same as Tom I think? I've been a forum lurker for a while, not just on BB but EB, M&B etc and really like the community style that BB has. Now that Elliott's turning 1 (OMG), I'd really like to jump into a group if that's ok?

This is more nerve-wracking than starting at a new school!!

Um, a bit about myself & my little family:
My name is Ami, and I'm 25. I've been with my DH Tim since I was 18 and he was 21, and we were married in October 2006. While on our honeymoon we discovered I was pregnant, due on 5 July 2007. On 17 July 2007 I still hadn't delivered and was induced and gave birth to my DS Elliott Trevor, weighing in at a very healthy 10lb 14oz. At this stage I should probably tell you that I'm very proud of the fact that I only had gas, and more than a couple of stitches! Elliott's been a champion breastfeeder, and is still on 3 BF's a day. For the first six months of his life he was a nightmare to get to sleep and eventually we went to Tresillian where we got some help getting him into a routine. He's a pretty good sleeper now, sleeping through from about 7pm - 7am, give or take. He has one sleep a day for about 2 hours after lunch. Not sure what else is relevant... But would really appreciate feedback or just a hi!

Looking forward to "meeting" you, if you'll have me!
