	Daughter and grandson came over today. She got out of the car and said 'I've got something to tell you' - I'd sort of already guessed - she's pregnant!! :o) Between having her daughter & son, my daughter had an ectopic pregnancy and had a tube removed. This (the ectopic pregnancy) was an accident - she and her partner were going to get married before having children, but with the event of the ectopic, decided to try to have a child - marriage could wait! Well, they had my grandson 22 months ago. Got married in August - and my daughter is 20 weeks pregnant!! She didn't want to tell anyone until she was sure it was okay. I'm not allowed to tell anyone yet - so I thought I'd tell you lot! It's another accident - though they did want more - just not yet. She was on the pill, breasfeeding grandson - and STILL managed to get pregnant with only one tube! A ray of hope to others - she's obviously a bit of a fertility queen!! LOL

	I hope you don't mind Maggie but I thought I'd share my news too. My stepson and his wife are expecting their first child after many years and lots of IVF. Due in March and even though we are a good 12 hours away we can't wait. We also naturally think that the baby wil lbe gorgeous, dad is a fair Aussie and mum is Japanese. Bub just has to be cute!!
