I've E-Mailed MNHQ to see if there is anything they can do.

Off to collect DD1 from school.

Hi all,

MJIM, why an awful night hun? Did Naomi not sleep?

Dawni, you shouldn't have mentioned creme eggs... I bought 10 Easter Eggs for DH's neices and nephews and mine (aswell as buying them for my bro to give to nieces and nephews) from Sainsburys while they were on £1, do you think they would mind if I started to work my way through them? Surely they'd understand that their "not quite ready to be born yet" baby cousin deserves Easter Eggs too?! Oooh that's a point - maybe I could hint to my family that she deserves eggs too, then I would get loads for Easter!!!

Juanitad, my goodness - we could write a book about your detective skills!! The poor girl maybe too scared to come back now because she'll probably think we're all nutters and that she's better off out of it - !!

HC fingers crossed on getting a response from MN....

Oh well, logging off for a short-time now. Have to work on my CV. I've got three years worth of work to update it with - I can't remember what I did for the first two of those three years though - yikes!!

What you can do is what people used to do when I worked in the bank. They used to seal a letter and write the name on the envelope with a 1st class stamp then enclose a letter with it asking for the letter to be forwarded on to the customer. We used to just fill in the address and stick it in the post. A You are Leaving to have a Baby card with our apologies could be sent to the school and they would be sure to forward it on.

What do you all think?

HC I think that is a brilliant idea, she really must know just how much she is missed.

MJIM What a poor night you've had, was there something wrong with Naomi ?? or just unsettled xx

DH has been to the doctors to get his stitches out from the cyst removal, he told the doc about lastnight and it turns out he has thrush !!! Apparentley from all the stress, hope i don't contract it now , anyways, the doc wants him in twice a week for steroid injections which will increase fluid around the bone. He will try anything at the moment.

By the way DawnAS, i also got a couple of pots of prefiteroles in chocolate sauce.....I've just had one which was very yummy

I think juanitad found the address of the school and knows her name. I am happy to do it if the details are E-Mailed to me [email protected]

We can then decide what to write in the card.

Dawni-hope DH picks up soon. Does your hair look good, bet it does.

juanitad · 27/02/2009 19:55

HC - will e mail you after I've posted this, agree with you all that we need to contact her somehow. I think today was her last day at work. I know that my school are happy to forward things on to me while I'm on mat leave, so I'm sure hers will do the same

HumphreysCorner · 27/02/2009 20:20

Thanks juanitad-now what shall we write in the card.

Dear CE

We are all totally distraught to find you have left Mumsnet after our discussion last week. We are so sorry to have upset you enough to leave and would love to have you back on board. You have been a great friend to us all and are a great support. We can't wait to find out if you have a boy or a girl. We understand if you don't feel able to join us again but you would be most welcome. All the best for the future!

Love BonkersAnonymous

Oh, not very good at this. Can someone make tthe above a tad better?

Ceebee74 · 27/02/2009 20:32

I am so that it has come to this but I agree we need to do whatever we have to to try and persuade her to come back. Although I have to say that she must have amazing willpower if she doesn't come back and at least lurk/read this when she off next week - ML is so boring waiting for the baby to come - maybe that is why she deregistered??

HC what you have said is good but maybe add something in about missing her and also say we understand if she doesn't want to come back but could she at least pop back and let us know if she had a boy or a girl and what she called it.... I can't imagine not knowing that Also, maybe direct her to the thread so she can see how much we miss her and want her back??

Complete change of subject - HC I need some diet advice if you don't mind.....as you know I have lost a stone and tbh, it was relatively easy but I seem to have stuck and I don't know why I only lost a pound last week and, although my official weigh-in is tomorrow morning, it is not looking good (I know - I shouldn't do mid-week weigh-ins ). I am completely sticking to my daily calorie allowance and doing lots of walking/exercise and not doing anything different to what I was doing a few weeks ago so why am I not losing weight now???

HumphreysCorner · 27/02/2009 20:41

Good words Ceebee, I'll get a card and practice what I'm going to write.

Your diet-I would vary what I am eating as that can help. Swap your breakfast etc. When I'm doing WW I count everything again instead of sneaking the odd thing and not counting it and I also start weighing every portion again. For every stone you lost you have to drop your intake slightly-on WW it is one point a day. Perhaps you are maintaining your weight and need to kickstart it again. Sometimes you can stick for weeks before the weight comes off again. Keep at it as you are doing brill.

Can I slink back without anyone noticing?.............

I still feel awful about what happened ? I truly truly never meant to upset anyone (if you knew me in RL you would know this). I especially never meant to upset Dawni as she has so much on her plate already. I can?t believe you all think you have upset me and I think I have upset you all

My initial reaction was that you must all hate me and I had better leave. Don?t know what made me peek back but when I saw your brilliant detective work/stalking and all the lovely things you all said, it made me realise you don?t! (I?m also slightly concerned that Juanitad might turn up on my doorstep unexpectedly! )

I am not someone to take the easy option and blame stuff on my hormones normally, but I think I am just feeling very overwhelmed at the moment. I am usually a strong, independent woman, career all sorted and in control of my life; and I?m starting to realise that this is all about to change monumentally and I have to allow others to help me. Plus I am as big as a house, have been working really hard to leave things properly for my replacement, and haven?t slept for weeks. Even DP and I have argued and we never do that

Arguing with you guys on here must have just been the final straw and I couldn?t deal with it at all. Now I have had a few days to calm down I would love to come back if you?ll have me ? I miss you!

PS. Could we not mention this any more? ??.. (I feel like a right plank)
