My name is Carole, 40, husband, 37. We have been married for 12 happy years. I am now a SAHM to our gorgeous daughter and my days are now filled up with trying to find cafes that sell babyccinos (she's obsessed with them - like mother like daughter ;o).

I am a qualified Holistic Therapist but no longer practise and I was a Project Manager before I because a SAHM.

I found Babyworld sometime in 1998, and used to moderate the Trying for a baby forum. We had been trying for a baby since 1997 and had tried everything, including, giving up my job; expensive holidays; reflexology; acupuncture; spiritual healing; meditation; 'giving up', which is when I re-trained as a Holistic Therapist . When all that didn't work, I turned to conventional medicine (1 IVF and 1 FET), which didn't work either.

The emotional roller coaster over the years was unbearable at times, but we came through it with the help of the Infertility forum and a positive outlook in life. This is what helped us think that everything happens for a reason, so at the end of 2004, we decided to start the adoption process, and as a result, I now moderate the Adoption and fostering forum.

We were invited onto the Prep Course in June 2005, and started our Home Study shortly after. We were approved at panel in April 2006 and after a 6 month wait, we were matched with our daughter in October (now 2). She was home by Christmas and we are now revelling in the normality of being a family of 3. We couldn't be happier and she was most definitely a perfect match for us. She is the answer to all of our questions starting with "why"… now we know.

I also manage the Regional Forums… so please do come along and make some friends and find out what is going on in your area.

Finally, I moderate the FAO forum as well... so if you need to ask a member a question about anything, that's the place to leave a post...!!!

Happy posting, I hope you find what you are looking for here on Babyworld.....!!

Carole xx
