HMHB Thats awful for your friend, hope you feel ok, I had a friend who miscarried and she had no family support so I went to spend the day with her and I felt quite bad as I was heavily pg with dd2 at the time, so I know that you can feel torn by wanting to show support but you don't want to make them feel worse which of course you won't

MuppetsMuggle · 26/04/2009 07:28

HMHB - sorry to hear about your friend, I hope your okay.

Hope everyone else is okay?

Well I'm hoping I'll have a better day painwise today, and i'll be able to walk better. esp as MIL birthday.

PlumBumMum · 26/04/2009 09:34
