Some years back my wife and I lost a baby late in pregnancy and, due to complications, Mrs T was told she wouldn't be able to have any more children.
A couple of months back, she was suffering from "ladies problems" and was actually googling for information on early menopause.
To cut a long story short we were at the maternity hospital today for a 12 week scan where I was introduced to the latest little drain on my resources.
I'm just getting used to the idea - I thought we were past all that. I have visions of a future where a teacher says "here's your grandad come to pick you up" FFS.
All being well, the baby's due at the start of August. That'll be my AR permissions withdrawn.
Hey ho.
