A big HUGE hello and welcome! Thanks for coming over from Top Baby Blogs.

It's not often you'll find a "mommy blog" that chronicles life BEFORE baby (and before TTC). After marriage I knew deciding when to have children would be the next biggest decision of my life... And I wanted to plan accordingly.

Just to tell you a little about me... I'm a career-driven wife of nearly five years.

My day job is a journalist, so I'm having fun tying in my research and reporting skills here on my blog. I'm really just a young, fun-lovin' person who is just trying to enjoy life.

I started this blog last year as a way to put down all of my thoughts on children. I've gone back and forth a lot on whether or not I'm ready, but finally I'm thinking I am. September I finally started trying to become a mother at the moment, and that's when I officially turned my machine "on" then October 2009 I got my first POSITIVE pregnancy test... Yep I'm PREGNANT with my first!

To quickly catch up on my Baby Story (Pre-TTC and beyond) Check out my Baby-Makin Journey.

I hope you'll stay awhile and leave some of your wisdom because I LOVE advice from moms and pregnant women, and I LOVE reading experiences from other women going through the same thing! I do giveaways about once a week now so check in for those on Thursdays.

You've seen mom blogs, and pregnancy blogs, but this is something a little different... I focused on that stuff, but before that all happens... A Pre-Pregnancy blog, gone PREGNANCY blog! if you will. I've been forming opinions and ideas of what I hope and THINK I'll do when I got pregnant, or when I give birth... Now it'll be fun to see what I actually end up doing.

I'm hoping women like you can share your secrets (really, tell me everything, even the nasty stuff they don't tell you beforehand), help me think of other questions, and find the answers as you follow me on my journey toward motherhood.

Oh but watch out... I ask difficult questions and post crazy findings, I don't hold back, I'm only just beginning and I'm loving every second of it!
