Hiya - been gallavanting about and missed a few days.....

Reet - glad to hear you're safe and that Cairns didn't end up too bad. I have some friends who were due to move to Cairns this weekend - needless to say they're waiting a while now but not too long - they both have medical type jobs to go to.

Sunshine - thinking of you my sweet.... I keep saying to myself that no news is good news.....?

Ferrals - sorry the ole placenta didn't cooperate.

Angel - ah Sweetie - when they are first at home, from my own experience, there's not a lot feeling happy - it's more just a lot of hard work, exhaustion, confusion, tears and lots of self doubt. A lot of women don't feel "happy" for a while... so go gently on yourself. You are getting to know Honor and she's learning to live in the world. It's all pretty hard stuff so honestly go easy on yourself. Wish that you could get a break from the step kids though..... if you can't avoid them coming, then when they are there - just focus on what you and Honor need and not anyone else. I know it's hard but be strong. You will get there, and you are doing a great job. Your little girl loves you and you love her, just you're so tired to really enjoy it at the mo. But if you just can't stop crying or feeling really down, then see if you can go to the Dr and also find someone to talk to. It's ahrd to know the difference between baby blues and depression when you're in the middle of it, but PND goes on for much longer. Oh hope you're ok in that crazy weather that the USA is having.... so much snow. What a nightmare to be stuck in a blizzard with your MIL. Yikes.... arsenic anyone?

Forshelby- I LOVE the visual of your belly sticking out of the water in the bath... just awesome....

Kell & Clairesmummy- try not to worry too much.. but I know... mission impossible.

Not too much time for more persies, sorry. Thinking of you all and your darling little bubs. Take care.
