On boxing day, there was nothing i wanted more than to wee on a HPT and see those two damn lines.. instead george came one day early and another months hopes were dashed.. on the other hand one of my best friends wanted nothing more than for george to arrive - he was 12 days late at this stage.. i insisted that she took a HPT.. she saw two lines! but she assumed one was an illusion because it wasn't as dark as the other.. never the less.. i was right on the phone to her to explain - i am somewhat of an expert on how HPTs work now! sad i know!
you see they were in no way planning this - as my friend too has complicated blood issues and needs to carefully plan any pregnancies.. none the less by my calculations she was 6 weeks pregnant so i recommended her to my specialist OB that i saw with Matilda.. and I'm soooo happy to hear that they are taking her on... it makes me feel so relieved.. i thought to myself last night.. we would not have known of the specialist OB if we didn't have Matilda.. so simply having her means that my friend and her bub will now be in the best care from the start.. this makes me happy, very happy.. i don't think anyone should ever have to go through the loss of a baby and if this helps my friend in any way it is clear proof that Matilda's short life had a reason.
oh, how i miss my baby girl...
Hi Lana,
ReplyDeleteI'm really happy to hear of your friend's pregnancy, and that you are able to help her. I also wish that you have a fantastic 2010 and are able to fall pregnant quickly and have a safe pregnancy.
Thanks for your comment about my SIL. Like your friends with SIL problems, I have to really push myself to go to family gatherings, but as they have kids around Brodie's age, I tend to go for his sake. She has alienated my husband's other brother and sister (they don't go to any family gatherings anymore), so I know the problem is all to do with her.
Take care.
