Hi all,
Welcome new mums and good luck to you all,

Furgurnie, while in surgurgy I went for straight for a coffee! Its always a 'nervious wreck' time, do something for yourself, then you have more to give back when they get out. Take care, breath deep!

Pink Fairy - DD has get less than two weeks left for her cast to come off, SOOO excited! She has done really well putting up with the whole ordeal. She has gone back to kinda, the first week she wouldn't let me leave, the second week the teachers were happy to give it all a go on their own, and she was fine. Its great for them to get their self esteem back among their peers, and feel a bit independent again! Not to mention great excuse to leave the house for a change, cabin fever be gone!
Good luck, keep busy til the op date, then hopefully it will just sneak up on you, the waiting is the worst bit!

PS - DD is pretty worried they will chop her legs off accidently when they remove the cast. She says she is going to ask to be asleep for this. Haha
