    Great news, hope all goes well xx
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    Thanks everyone :)

    I am struggling a bit mentally; it's been quite a journey and DS has not slept today at all which probably doesn't help.

    I'm going to go into town tomorrow briefly as our first outing by ourselves; I've not left the house without someone else since before DS was born and the longer I put it off, the harder it is getting to make myself leave with DS by myself. I'm not sure what I think is going to happen? I tried last week and ended up having a panic attack in the hallway, which wasn't pleasant :(

    In other news, it's been another NSD for us and I've transferred £38.86 into savings today.
