I am so sorry to hear your little baby will be having such a surgery, but we are lucky we will in this day and age when these things can be repaired with little fuss. I wish you and your family all the best through this time. I have no doubt everything will be A OK, but be kind to yourself, it will be hard recovering from surgery, have your new arrival go through surgery and having another little girl that isn't so well. I hope you have the support of family and friends to make this time as easy as possible for yourself and DH.

They have some great things on in the hospital on Christmas Day, not the greatest place to be with your baby girls, but Christmas is about family and as long as you are all together, thats all that truely matters. Matilda wont even know that you're meant to open presents first thing in the morning, waiting until she gets to the hossy wont even fase her.

Another take care, wishing you all the best.
