It's easy to forget just how lucky we are to have beautiful healthy children

Our thoughts are with Vio and her family

And I'm sure we're all thinking of those that have been absent lately, and hoping that they know they can return to us if they need us at any time, no questions asked

PINIONS, SMOLE, MUMINA..., NUTTY, OCTO, (AND ANYONE ELSE I'VE MISSED)...........

sorry, feeling soppy

can I make a suggestion? as lovely as your posts are mmk, they keep making me cry, and work are starting to wonder why I keep crying at my desk is making it a little tricky to MN in secret
so after tomorrow morning would it be ok to start a new, celebratory thread that has happier thoughts on?
if i'm being daft then please tell me, just that I know I struggle to stay 'up' as do some others

did it work????

new thread

mmk · 14/09/2007 09:08

ok, I'm done with the posts! I tried to write an apology last night, as so many posts had said they had cried, but it came out all wrong.

Anwyay, the moment has passed, so there is no need of any more sad posts.

this will make you cry though Pillock

Dd sleeps 12 hours, but Ds keeps on waking. This morning DS woke at 5am and nothing would get him back to sleep, he came into our bed and was chattting and fidgeting. I nearly cried, DH nearly cried, even the cat looked emotionally drained this morning!

We resorted to putting the tv on in our room, but I couldn't sleep, so went into Ds bed, which is a childrens one. At least I got an extra hours sleep though.

hey thats us home.

The funeral was a nice as it could be.

Vio truely is the most amazing person I have ever met. She read a poem that she had written for jimjim and then a letter that she had put in his coffin. The flowers that MMK had sent were lovely. She sends her thanks. She is happy for any monies to be divided between Debra and Robin house.

my ds has also turned into a little non-feeding terror - well, for a while, anyway! Some excellent advice I had was to pump a little bit just before you feed him, will take the 'head' of foremilk off and bring on letdown much sooner

good luck
