Introductions!

Righty i haven't been on for a while and there are so many new faces so i thought i would introduce myself and hopefully others will do the same

I am Leitia (said LEE-SHA), i am 29, Married to Jason for 10 years and we have 5 beautiful children.

Lily is 9, Charlie is 7, Alfie is 6 tomorrow , Harry is 18 months and Tommy is 7 months.

Alfie was diagnosed this July as being Autistic, and he is being home schooled (been doing it for over a year now) as there are no spaces in any schools near us. And we are in the beginning stages of having Charlie screened as he has fits and social behaviour issues, Charlie also had Group B Strep Meningitis when he was 2 weeks old.

I have been coming on here for over 2 years but i did have a different user name in the beginning.

Anyhoo i look forward to getting to know all of you i haven't met yet, and renewing friendships with those who already know me

Hello....

I'm Kate, 26 and live in South Wales with my hubby Chris 31. We have a little boy Euan who was born on 21st June 09 ( i cant beleive he'll be 4 months old this weekend!)

I've used this site pretty much as soon as i found out i was pregnant nearly a yr ago. After a bit of a rocky start to mummy hood, mainly due to probs breastfeeding and my mum moving 600miles away, i'm now totally loving it!
Euan is a little cutie pie and is just starting to giggle which just melts my heart

Although i dont come on this site as much as i used to--mainly cos i'm never in the house these days--its sooo lovely to know you'll all give me advice and answer my questions whenever i post, so thank you millions!

Intros

Hi there,

Sure most of you know me by now by my name is Natalie and I am 36 years old and been with Mark for over 6 years. Been on SoFem for a couple of years now and we had our Daughter Emily May in February 2009. I am a PA to a CEO and going back to work at the end of this month which I am nervous about, not the going back to work but hoping Emily settles into Nursery and us having a new routine, i.e. the three of us trying to get out of the door all washed and dressed before 8am.

We live near Winchester in Hampshire in the Country and our house backs onto a field so we have all manner of wildlife in the garden and field which I like as I love wildlife, perhaps not the rats though.....

Anyway, have to go as Emily is due her morning nap which means an hour of chores and getting the house straight before she wakes up.

Lots of Love
Natalie & Emily xxxxx

But you're still my dod, right?

I am Jen, I'm 38 years OLD and I've got 5 weans all boys. They are

John 19
Jamie 14
Jude 6
Charlie 2
Francis 1

We live in Glasgow.

I've been hanging round here since March/April 2008. Not so addicted as I once was but I can't believe I've met such great folk and feel that I'm good friends with loads of you.
I returned to work yesterday so I may not be around too often now as my priority is FB when I've got a bit of laptop time but my heart will always be here.
I've met one of the sofeminenders when I was in London and another is coming to my house for coffee and a bitchfest in November

Love Jen and Co xxxxx

Nice to see you back mrs!

Well I'm Kirst, I'm 20 and have a little girl called Daisy Mai who is 3 I had her when I was 16 and she was born 16 weeks premature!
(she is a little old for this forum but you are all sooo lovely! )
I Live in North Yorks with my gorgeous fiancee Liam who is 21. I used to work in Woolworths but then it closed and I also worked as a hairdresser! I'm now on maternity leave as I am due baby number 2 in just over 3 weeks
So I shall be joining you ladies officially, very soon!

I have been a lurker on Sofem for about a year now, reading all the posts and getting advice up until 5 months ago when I joined properly and introduced myself. I'm on Facebook if anyone wants to add me by the way. It's Kirsti Holt and I'm about the 4th one down. If you can see my profile pic, it's a black and white close up of my face.
This site is wonderful and I couldn't cope without it.

Love Kirst, Daisy (3) and 36+3 Yellow Bump.x

I'm Shelley, married to my hubbie for 5 years now and our beautiful daughter Olivia Mae turned 1 on Friday (where has the time gone?)!

I dont post as often as I should but log on most days so will try and come out of shadows and stop lurking so much! Whenever I have posted I've received really helpful advice and hope I can try and return the favour sometime ... although not sure my advice would be that great as often feel like I'm flailing around without a clue what I'm doing, tee hee!!

Most of you already know me.....been I've been on here since the beginning of 2007 when I fell pregnant with my baby girl......I also have a teenage son....massive age gap!

I am happy to tell you more about myself in private message but for now I would like to remain a little bit anonymous because me & hubby will be trying for another baby at christmas & I don't want anyone to know!..... therefore......need to keep my real name/identity secret for now!

Hey maybe when I no longer need to stay such a secret you can all have a go at guessing my real name for a bit of fun!
