‘Shall we try for a baby?’  Probably one of the most important decisions that a couple make. Less than a year after we were married, we were fortunate to fall pregnant very quickly. It was August 2008, we were young. Up until then, we felt like we had it all, family, great friends, a beautiful home and more than we could ever imagine.
The first two trimesters of my pregnancy were trouble free. We chose to only share our news with our parents before our 12-week scan. I was desperate to find out the sex of the baby, secretly hoping for a girl. We were relieved that when we had our 20-week scan, all was well and delighted to find out we were expecting a baby girl. Everything became very exciting and real at this point.
