Reference conference paper in journal article?

C

Hi all.

Hope title says it all.

I've recently presented a paper at a conference and now I would like to submit it to a journal.

So i'd like to put my stake in the ground, so to speak, in making sure that its clear that it was my work / idea etc - not that its ground breaking, i don't want to sound like i've invented the wheel here (sprout)

But still a mini step is still a step.

To my question, is it ok to reference a conference paper ... especially when the journal paper is essentially a re-hash of the conference work. I feel a bit like a fraud ... oddly enough and wondered how your get around this.

appreciate your thoughts. thanks
