    Had a very bad day today. Bad news at the hospital for me....FIL in a car accident with OH's gran of 97 (both ok)in the car and friend lost her baby today at 29 weeks preggers. I posted about her a few weeks ago...she was 38 and had an 18 yr old and was pregnant again and the father didnt want to know. I wish I had not woken up this morning!

    Bad day for you, PP. Hope your FIL and gran aren't too shook up. So awful when you hear of someone losing a baby too. It must be devastating.

    oh my goodness.

    I lost a baby a couple of years ago at 29 weeks - was just thinking of her (the baby) today. I just had to convince myself that it was probably the best thing for all (not least the baby)

    This doesn't help much but just wanted you to know I'm thinking of you all.

    Lol, that made me chuckle. I saw Supernanny last night, I do hope that family manage to keep up the 'changes' now that she's left....

    So do I!! It made for quite disturbing viewing in parts. Did you catch the follow up on E4? I'll say one thing for the family, they were definately determined to see it all through, despite the set backs. And just how immaculate was her house!?

    My 12yo loved the bean bag/chill out area (we discussed the essense of the programme today, they didn't watch it) he got himself all excited hoping I would give him a chill out room in the understairs coat cupboard ... until I pointed out that, no, he couldn't put the music system in there and no, there wouldn't be all his books in there to keep him company either :naughty: He thought about it for a nanosecond and decided I could send him to his room instead :rotfl:
