16 week twin bump pic and who I really am (Paladin/Babydust)

Ok, I've been thinking about doing this for a while and the new forum is complicated enough without having to deal with two IDs

When I first came over to Babytalk I pretty much joined DTC straight away. At the time I hadn't told many people we were trying for a baby, never mind how complicated it was likely to be so I chose to use an alias - Babydust. When the irony of Babydust became too much, I swapped to Paladin!
 
The support I got here has been unbelievable I've had such a tough few years and being here surrounded by such amazing people has helped make it bearable. I've kept copies of every reply I received after my failed treatments (6 of them, in case anyone is wondering! ) and all the congratulations I received on my BFP post as every one means so much to me. I've made some fantastic real life friends (you all know who you are) who have always been there over email, phone calls and the odd glass of wine!
 
This is beginning to sound like an acceptance speech, but bear with me!
 
I'm 16 weeks today with my precious twins, so I've decided to share my first bump photo:

And reveal that my 'normal' ID is Debsie (thanks to everyone who knew but didn't let on!)
I'll be posting as 'me' from now on and I hope you'll all understand my reasons for waiting till now to reveal myself.

Debsie

Fantastic bump Debsie/paladin/babydust!!! I can't believe that you're 16 weeks already!

I hope the rest of your pregnancy goes smoothly and enjoyably!

Take care

 Oh Debsie, I'm for you darling, I am so very, very happy for you. I've followed you as paladin and I'm utterly thrilled that you are going to have not one, but two very special babies.

Who needs hotels when you can have this? Oh my goodness, I'm so happy!

I'm sorry it's been such a long road but what an ending. 

You have no idea how thrilled I am to be finally seeing this post on here

The last 12 weeks have gone so quickly and I can hardly believe you are already at the 16 week mark

 I know we have told you numerous times - but we are totally utterly and completely over the moon thrilled with your wonderful news.

We look forward to sharing in your joy in September/October [whenever T1 & T2] make their appearance

Much love

Jules
