I swear you ladies (and Squidipa's DH and The Bear ) are my lifeline ... with my DP away so much, it's great to come here and get support (and give it too!) I think I would be having a much harder time coping with no-one to talk to (or type to for that matter!) I do get to talk to DP on the phone every night, and on weekends, but not having him physically here is hard - at least he'll be there on Monday.

Well I had a look at the u/s scans and it has special instructions for "the patient to take it unreported" WTF??????? How on earth is that gonna help the paed surgeon?? And I can't get a hold of the hossie atm to see if I can pick up a copy of the report from them I just don't want Veygas to have to go through more unnecessary u/s's IYKWIM?? Especially if having a copy of the report could prevent that!

Pixie - I think you have every right to be proud of yourself for getting through the birth with only gas, no tears and no stitches! I can imagine you would have mixed feelings about it though, knowing that Beth was in NICU But don't feel stupid for feeling that way!

Damn, there was something else I wanted to say, but my mind is like a sieve these days!

On a totally unrelated note, my 4.5yo DD is TOTALLY toilet trained, day & night! She hasn't had any accidents in the past week since wearing undies to bed (and her pullups were dry for about 2 weeks before that!) but she has been day time toilet trained for over a year! 2.5yo DS on the other hand has no interest whatsoever and will even hold in his morning poo until AFTER his nappy is changed! Little bugger! Oh well, not gonna push him ... YET!
