Hi! I thought I'd better start a new thread now because it might get busy tomorrow morning and I don't want to lose you all Grin

I didn't know about the limit. I'm still completely humbled that I've had so many well-wishers Smile, so I feel a little self conscious. Although I think we've all been led down this path by the baby somewhat!

Am completely knackered tonight so will say goodnight and will endeavour to keep you posted on happenings tomorrow.

Thanks once again for keeping me company xxx

Congratulations to you and Mr. Southsea - and welcome to the world to Thomas. You have done amazingly well - so sorry you had a scare after he was born - hope you start to feel much better soon.

I hope Thomas is soon back on the ward with you.
