So sorry about your maternity leave justine and carrie

[Enid]

what a complete bummer

I feel really bad for you both

x Enid

It is awful isn't it? Precious time lost because of all this crap.

I just read about what's been going on .

It's awful enough as it is but the timing really sucks .

I hope that all of us avoiding mentioning certain people on the site will give you some peace to enjoy your lovely babies.

Me too, I really feel for you too. It's unfair in the extreme. x

. Hope you can now get some respite from here and enjoy your families .

I always got the impression that Justine liked a bit of drama! Am I projecting? If so, then loads of sympathy. I am a big fan and would be gutted if she or carrie were seriously gutted.

Reading about the timing of this palaver made me cry. It's so, so gutting.

so sad for them. Hopefully it'll all blow over soon and they can get back to what's REALLY important.

Made me feel really upset thinking about the timing for you both.

Me too. Words can't express it really. Marina XXX

do you know htat woke me up it he middel of the night.

i was sad for you b oth too

Thanks so much everyone for your thoughts - really very kind of you. We'll just have to bloomin well make sure we take it at some point - maybe a 4-month sabbatical in somewhere tropical this winter assuming this has all gone away then, please God - sure you'd all get on fine without us.
Ps What are you on about nobodyatall - drama, moi ? Yours Justine Brockovitch

Do hope you get your break eventually. We promise to be good.

yes I think this is the saddest thing of all

well said Enid

I had really hoped things had quietened down a bit in these last weeks, so I really feel for you, Justine and Carrie - what with this hot weather, and all this legal pressure and no maternity leave - you both deserve a the longest of long holidays (as do tech and others).

agree, amazing that anyone would hassle women trying to take some maternity leave.

lol at Justine Brockovitch!

Yeah sorry girls

Of course, god how grim. You poor things. Well what goes around comes around.

I can't add anything more than has been said already.. just hope you both get some peace soon.
I admire you both for tackling this and coping with newborns.

I agree - of all of the things this feels like the worst bit. I hope you do take those 4 months. even if you don;t manage the tropical bit.

Oh I'd forgotten about the mat leave. bummer.

hope it all blows over soon.

Nothing but support here

I really do hope this hasnt hindered the bond with your newborns TOO much, and you take comfort in the fact MN posters are more than 100% behind you all x

ive been thinking the same thing..hope you get that well earned break.
