We've now welcomed mini sun, dawn, kat, zazou and selfies (please tell me I haven't missed anyone...)....who will be next?!

Those of us waiting impatiently will be showing down on dates, pineapple, RLT and curry while having awkward whale sex.

James, words cannot express how desperately sorry I feel for you and Wesley and for your loss. I know we all feel the same and if we can offer any sort of support as you navigate your way through the early days with a newborn, please don't hesitate to ask. You are both in my thoughts xx

BellaBooo · 06/02/2014 16:36

James,
I'm so so sorry for your loss. No words seem enough.
You'd be more than welcome to join us. Don't be afraid to ask for any advice or if you wanted to talk, I know everyone on here would be only too willing to help. As has been said, the facebook group would be a private place for that if you preferred.
My thoughts are with you and Wesley.

As others have said, if you need anything - anything at all - please don't hesitate to come to us.

Take care, hugs x

I am so, so sorry to hear about Gill, James. Even though we never met her in person we shared a lot of ups and downs over the last nine months, both here and on our fb group and we all consider each other as friends. Gillian came across as a very funny and warm person and will be very much missed in our group. I hope you will join us when you feel up to it and that we can try and offer you some support. So many condolences to you, Wesley and your family. I'll be thinking of you all lots and sending lots of love and strength.

ChocoFrog · 06/02/2014 17:24

James and Wesley my heart is with you both at this difficult time. Thinking of you and sending heartfelt sympathies. Thanks xx

DawnOfTheDee · 06/02/2014 17:24

My sincerest condolences for your loss James and Wesley - Gillian will be so missed here. She was a sweet, lovely, caring person and a great mum, although i'm sure i don't have to tell you this.

Please feel free to come on here or the fb group for support, chat, somewhere to rant, whatever. You and the family are very much in all our thoughts xxx

Thisisfreakingmeout · 06/02/2014 17:31

I am so sorry James. I am thinking of you and Wesley.

I am sure you have family and friends for support but, to echo what has already been said, if there is any support we can offer, please don't hesitate.

James - echoing what has already been said more eloquently on here but all my thoughts and best wishes are with you and your family at this incredibly sad time x

I was really shocked to read your update James and my thoughts are with you, Wesley and Gill's wider family and friends. If there is anything that anyone here can to do help you either now or further down the line then you just need to ask. Thanks

mrscookie78 · 06/02/2014 18:02

I am so sorry, my thoughts are with you and Wesley.

Shropshiremummy2B · 06/02/2014 18:11

James,

I am absolutely devastated to hear this awful news about Gill passing. She was an absolute trooper and a very entertaining lady. I know she would have made an incredible mother to Wesley and we all know how much she was looking forward to it. It seems so strange as I was only thinking about her yesterday, wondering where that little piglet in wellies had got to!

Enormous congratulations on the birth of Wesley, what a legacy she has left.

Massive cyber hugs, PLEASE keep in touch. We will try not to talk about leaky nipples too much and can hopefully help you in some way shape or form. Xxxx

Morien · 06/02/2014 18:21

I am so, so sorry for your loss James, there's no words, but you and Wesley will be in my thoughts. We're always here if you need to talk or if you need any advice x

HarlemWobble · 06/02/2014 23:26

James, I'm struggling to find the right words just now. I can only imagine what you must be going through, but do know that Gill was much loved here on MN and will be so missed. Thinking of you and Wesley.
