    I say keep the fortune cookie for a week and if it doesnt improve, take it, and your fortune back....
    Shame it was a bit sucky though hun.....

    Its basically a charm bracelet, but it only has two charms on it (I'm picky about the charms). And basically I got it as a way of marking our first baby (which I miscarried)'s appearence in my life, and today is the anniversary of being told and I just feel a really strong need to have it near me...plus with Landen being sick I've been all mental about everything, and massively paranoid something is gonna happen to him, so i keep checking on him for my own sanity....
    If it was just a nice bracelet, I'd be p'eed but its solely that one charm, which is sentimental, but i also cant get a replacement as its not sold anymore....

    I only ever wear it for strength (call me superstitious/freaky whatever), its not like i wear it daily...
    I cant remember ever wearing it with L.... because it has a hanging end, so it can catch....

    I have a feeling its in a bag somewhere.....must check hospital bags. I know i had to take it off at hospital as it wasnt allowed in theatre....

    Hospital bags are in Landens room :o

    Morning everyone.

    After a week of V riding around on the brush making horsey noises, we got her a hobby horse. She's absolutely terrified of it. :rotfl:Back to the brush then. :o.

    Exactly what I was going to say susan. Ironic. :)

    Oh dear CAFC, hope it turns up soon and hugs for you.

    Thanks for the hugs. :o Party was good, A was smiling at everyone and got lots of compliments from some grandparents for bfeeding which made me feel good. HOWEVER, got back to IKs and there were lots of relatives so DH suggests we keep her awake so everyone can see her... and I agree like a moron. So now ive been holding her in our room since 7pm as she just cries if I do anything else- clearly over tired as shes laughing then crying in her sleep too. Shes been sleeping for about 10 mins now- lets see if it lasts.

    On the bday front- had my FIRST present today- he had my wedding ring engraved with A's name- hes had his done too. I get my next present tomorrow. I suppose hes trying but he's still getting the cold shoulder for being a muppet.
