Wow! Such a lot in 24 hours!!
Sadly Immi I am at work and not snowed in (with hubby as the boss, he can be a bit of a slave driver!
) So i didn't have anytime off for snow!
We have a 4WD truck (handy to deliver beer or cope with the snow!) so that has been fine in the snow.
Willy - I am soooooo excited!! I just know that this is going to be it.... I can't wait. I have prayed for you the last few nights, do let us know. xxxx
That musical sounds like so muich fun, well done you. xx
Guppy - Sweetie, congrats to you for having a lovely healthy baby bean! not so good on you not standing up for yourself.... do you want me to come over there and sort her out...


As an ex nurse (ok so I was a kids nurse but still!) we have to take oaths and stuff about compassion, sensitivity etc! She treated you in a horrible manner and i would have complained about her. I have been spoken to a couple of times rudely by someone and have confronted them with the truth. Sometimes you have to just say it like it is to make them realise how their actions are making you feel. I had some tests done a while ago (on my kidneys) and was really scared. The nurse was reeeeallly horrible and rough with me and I just turned to her and said. ' Please be careful with me, I am really scared. I know that you do alot of these procedures everyday but I don't and I am really struggling when I don't know what the matter is and am terrified of the outcome of this scan.'
It worked a treat, she looked horrified and explained wheat she was doing at every stage. Sometimes nurses forget with all the stress of their days and need to be kept in check to remember thier caring bedside manner. We are all human and have bad days (I had some awful days in special care baby unit)but you must not take that out on your patients or their relatives.
OK, lecture over.
But make sure you ask at your next appt for a scan, if you dont ask you dont get and relay to the Doc that you haven't even heard the babies heartbeat. Sadly I worked in fetal medicine so I mostly dealt with the bad news and problems but there is no professional satisfaction greater than seeing the joy on a new mothers face when they hear a heatbeat, so just ask the doc! lol xxxxxx
Gosh that was long, sorry!
Someday -
