“Things were tough for quite a few years. I have degenerative disc disease and ended up in pretty constant pain for three or four years, which really didn’t help our attempts to start a family… The amount of stress my body was under just wouldn’t allow it. Eventually it was so bad that I couldn’t even sit. I’ve eaten meals in restaurants standing up, and I was popping painkillers like nobody’s business. We decided surgery was our only option, so last year I had one disc repaired and two other discs replaced. Since then things have definitely turned around. Not only am I pain free, but just before Christmas, myself and my husband finally got to tell our family and friends the amazing news that there would soon be three of us. We had an early scan at seven weeks, but there was no way I could keep it a secret until we hit twelve weeks. I think I told everyone I know within a couple of days! We’ll be married nine years in September, and I’m not sure what the traditional anniversary present is, but we’ve definitely been given the best gift anyone could wish for.”
