Congratulations Tulip!!!! You did it! You've joined us on the other side! And I hope you're on your way too CeeCee!!! Ali: Tori's feeding pattern sounds pretty tough ATM you poor darl, but don't worry, feeding patterns change quickly and before you know it you'll find that she's in a more managable one, for a little while at least. Dee: I was thinking of you and your sadness at probably never having another newborn this morning whilst I was folding cloth nappies... as I mentioned i share your sadness and I wonder how you are feeling about your own daughters having babies for you to bond with? You know how time flies; well I was thinking that before i know it Verity will probably be handing over her first baby for me to cuddle... it kinda helped with my sadness... so in future i'm going to steer my mind in that direction. I won't be placing any undue pressure on her though and I'm sure it's just a little strategy that will help me get through this current tough time of hormonal responses to sensitive issues... I've got plans to return to uni etc which will eventually serve to refocus my thoughts in the long-term. Anyhow I just wanted to let you know that I didn't overlook your last post on the issue Dee *hugs*... I've just been a little distracted with my mother until now... BUT! She's gone! Feels like a dark cloud has left the house... I've been vacuuming, burning insence, cleansing cleansing... and best of all i can enjoy being on BB again without feeling awkward... hope she doesn't log on herself when she gets back home to spy on me!

I've got to take the chance to have a quick shower too now like Ali... both boys asleep... rare opportunity. Can't wait to hear more news of CeeCee! back later!
