thanks you lot, once again you are supporting us with your kind words.
Dh and I feel closer to you than we do to people who are meant to be 'close' to us-sil phoned this morning to talk to dh and she never even bothered to ask how baby was.
Feel so sad that we have no support around here, I know other people have things going on in their own lives, but surely it would n't have hurt her to ask about her little niece or nephew?
Anyway, thanks to you lot, and sorry for going on about sil's (and other peoples') lack of interest.

Yes dh and I slept through last night after so many nights of tossing and turning.

thanks all, tc. xx
