Michelle: firstly, that is wonderful news about Omar. You are doing such a great job baking your baby boy. Secondly, TBH I'd be worried about you if you sounded like you were ok IYKWIM. You are in such an intense raw phase of grief and it is so entirely healthy to let yourself feel that. I'm so very sorry you babies lost their daddy. It's bloody unfair and cruel. But just as them asking for their Daddy is one of the saddest things, a cuddle or a smile from them is also one of the things filled with so much joy. It is those moments which will fuel you to power on through this pain. I love you girl, you know that. Belly rubs for Omar, cuddles for O an L and big squishy hugs for you.

Mako: I think whatever you feel is valid and your Mum needs to respect it and the boundaries you've set. No child mine is ever to be taken anywhere without my knowledge or permission. Period. I think you are well within your rights to raise it with your Mum.

Kelly: whoo hoo, almost 12 weeks. Good luck with your scan on Wed. Holding your hand from afar.

Jayne: how exciting. Ignore what the family think, you enjoy yourself babe.

Bek: whoo hoo on E's sleep improving. That is wonderful news.
