Hi MK, and thanks, and congratulations on your little great grand-daughter! You don't sound nearly old enough to have one, but in any case your'e right - age irrelevent, daughter, greatgranddauhter,...
Thanks some more.....this is all making more sense to me now! Sounds as though in the UK we keep women in for five days (average) and therefore can take drains out much of the time before sending...
Hi Laurie, Thanks! I'm sorry I didn't include you along with MK and Joyce in my original post, I still totally associate you with iV (I know you still post there, we've hugged over there a couple of...
Kath and Stefanie, thank you so much for taking the time to post back...its lovely to log on and see the support. Sounds like Joyce's bag idea is a good one, then - catching on doorknobs sounds...
Hi Joyce! And thanks so much...yes, we're still in shock, albeit the best sort. Poor girls are going to have ancient parents, but at least our PM's wife had her last at the same age as me....has...
...but first, hello and hugs to old friends MK and Joyce, and special hello to Mia-whom-I-almost-met! And anyone else who might remember me from the old iVillage bb a few years ago. My own aunt (by...
I tried to paste a link to Laney's website, but couldn't get it to work! You can access it by clickin on Laney's story on the ibcsupport site (link below - and this one does work, hopefully). She...
I'm only a (very occasional) lurker, who was helped years ago by many of these lovely woman on another site.....but just wanted to tell you that during my own breast problem times, I talked to a...
Hi IVwife, I don't think its being a hypochondriac to have breast changes checked out - that doesn't mean you are at higher risk of breast cancer, it just means you are being sensible and attending...
Hi Simone I am an occasional lurker - used to post on another board with some of the oldtimers here, who helped me out when I was going through a very similar time to you. I had no family history,...
Congratulations Joyce!! Gia Marie sound gorgeous - I'm glad you (and she!) get to enjoy cuddles this time. There's nothing quite like a new little life arriving...storms, sad news (I just read your...
Oh Joyce....I remember Shells, from the iVillage days. I rememeber congratulating her when she found she was pregnant. I remember how upbeat, enthusiastic, and optimistic she always sounded...
Mia, I just emailed you - bon voyage! xxClaire...
Hi Mia, MK emailed me yesterday, otherwise I'd have missed your post! First, have to tell you I'm not sure if I really qualify as a 'proper' London Breastfriend exactly....I had a scary few months...
Hi Karla, I'm only a 'lurker' here who visits occasionally....(I have one or two old pals from another board who post here and gave me the link)...but I saw your post and wanted to give you a link. I...
(((((((MK)))))))))) a bunch of extra good luck hugs from London....I'm sure its impossible not to wonder, even if you're doing a great job of not actually worrying: so I hope the time flies past and...
....MK kindly gave me the link, so I could drop by and wish you all the best of luck, life and love in 2005! Its only a few hours till the New Year here in London, and I would stay up till midnight...
