New to EBB? New to OT? Not sure which threads you fit in? Come in here and introduce yourself so we can all get to know you.

I'll be part of the welcoming committee!

I'll start I guess (tho most people know me (or off me))

Hi, I'm Bekkaz. I am 26 and am a SAHM to my beautiful 10mth old daughter X. I live in the Waikato with my husband of 4.5 years. I'm a terrible house keeper cos I spend way way way way WAY too much time on EBB.

I first joined the TTC and (sometimes) the infertility threads and from there ventured to OT and MTBNP boards. Now I pretty much just lurk here and there...but not in the Sept '05 board

If you are new, hello and welcome

I'll join in with you Bek

Roscoe, Im 28 and a SAHM to my almost 10 month old son, Alex (sorry just about freaked out typing that lol)

YAY Sept 08 Mummies I live in Auckland.

Joined in 2001 for the Crohns & Colitis forum and then spread my wings a bit when I found out I was expecting and started looking round the other threads.
Have tried to step back from EBB a few times but it always calls me back

Hi my name is Tatty Ted aka ssbailey02

I am heading across the ditch to Sydney in 24 days to begin a new life for myself. I might turn lesbian - I'm waaaaay over men!

Im 24 and a SAHM to my two boys and their dad. I started on the May 07 to be mums and then ventured out to PND and OT and have visited/posted to other boards as they have related to me.
I wanna TTC#3, but DH isnt too keen.

This is great bekkaz, even for us "oldies"

Ooo this is cool

I'm Joy and have one son Carlos who is almost 4! WHOA almost 4!! Can't believe I'm a Mummy to an almost 4 year old

We are kiwi's who have recently relocated to Melbourne and loving it We'll eventually move back to NZ and probably settle in Hawkes Bay but our life is here for now

I've been around quite a while now I joined when I was preg with Carlos and have made some amazing friends and support networks who I wouldn't be without for the world!

Oooo and I'm engaged, getting married at the end of next year

Hi I am Tinbum. I am 30 and live in Whangarei (where I was raised, but moved away 12 years ago). I have 2 children, DS will be 6 next week, and DD will be 6 months on the same day.

I've been around for a little over a year, when DD was conceived.But I am well and truely addicted

I'm IndirectPoem, 22yrs old. Been married since I was 18 (will be our 5th anniversary in november!). I joined when halfway through my pregnancy with DS and eventually branched out into the OT boards. Now I go into the weightloss ones too. I LOVE EBB!!!!

Im mum to nearly 2 year old Jamie and due in 3 weeks with #2. Live in Lower hutt and totally addicted to EBB. I have met some amazing people on here, and to be honest, most days they are what keep me (slightly)sane.

Tinbum - How cool Isobel is 6 months on the same day that Noah turns 6 That is really special

Hi I'm renz.
SAHM to 2 boys: 2y10m and 4.5m.
On EBB a lot.

Tinbum... we are the same age and I grew up in Kaitaia... you never know we might have played netball againest each other years ago at school or something!

ANYway...
Hi! I'm Maz (30) and I'm a working mama to George (3) and Rosa (7mths). We live in Papakura but I grew up in Kaitaia and lived in Nelson and Invercargill too over the years. I've been a member since George was in my belly and I really don't know what I would have done without having this connection to fellow mamas. I have met so many awesome people from this board!

I went on a hiatus from here about 2 months ago, my life was crazy and I needed to give something up. But slowly slowly I'm being lured back to the world of hugs and handbags! lol

Hi all I'm Caprice I'm 37
full time working mum to Cole (3 going on 19)

I hail from Hamilton originally but have lived in Auckland all my adult life I've been a member since TTCing through miscarriage and carrying Cole and now I post on OT here and there when the whim takes me
like Maz have made some fab friends here :-)

I get on here when I can but not as often as I'd like and quite often I am too shy to post

What a cool idea. I often lose track of who everyone is.

I'm Hamiltonian. I have no idea where I got that name from??? I'm not all that imaginative or creative. DH and I live in Cambridge but I have offices in Hamilton. DH and I both have our own businesses so we are a pretty busy little family. We have two 2 year old girls who are an absolute delight!

I joined the infertility thread initially as DH and I were undergoing fertility treatment. We've been TTC again for the last 18 months or so and are starting our second round of IVF next week.

I grew up in Taranaki, studied in Hamilton, lived in Auckland for 4 years and moved back down to the Waikato 5 years ago.

I like to think I am a glass half full person!

ooo, i'm Hannah. I'm 30, with 2 kids.
i joined EBB to chat to TTCers and MCers, and it took me AGES to venture into OT!!
Now i rarely go anywhere else!

Well planned aye Joy But yeah, pretty cool that they're exactly 5.5 years apart.

Yeah it is nice to touch base and find out who everyone is again after some name changes. Hmm it might mean we will be able to understand where we each come from so there will be less and ..... Nah! hehe

Okay I'm Smoochie aka Tamryn. I was born in South Africa and moved over to NZ in April 07.

I started off with the BabyPhat weightloss forum then went from there to TTC and fell pregnant 9months later and hung around the pregnancy threads for 9months then the Reflux forum and now back at the weightloss and OT Forums.
I am SAHM to two daughters an almost 3yr old and an 8month old. I am coming up to the next 9month change over so where will I go next? TTC maybe?

Oh and I am also married to a wonderful man for almost 6 years.

I did play netball back in the day Maz, you never know. I actually have family up Kaitaia way!

Cool idea!

I feel like an old timer...I came here because people I know from another (long since defunct) forum I belonged to came here - I think Roz (on the Reflux forum) and Gutz_cmum are the only one's left though.

I am a 33yo Mum to four children aged nearly 8, nearly 6, nearly 3 and 5m. Boy, boy, girl, boy. And a cat who is also nearly 3. And a lovely dh who helps out heaps around the house.

I am a SAHM and part time library assistant, and also involved with breastfeeding support and advocacy.
