Gezabel Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 So sorry to hear such sad news from some of you. Sending you all huge hugs and thoughts xxx 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gezabel Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 i know i have shared some of the emotional journey my son and daughter-on -law have travelled in their quest to become parents. Over 7 year we have travelled this journey with them whilst trying to support them through the ups and the downs. Two IVF attempts resulted in pregnancies both of which ended in miscarriages, the third attempt also resulted in pregancy, we have been cautiously optimistic throughout and unbelivably she is now 38 weeks pregnant. We know they are having a boy, all is well and he is due to arrive some time this coming week by C section. They have chosen to keep the date and the name to themselves - they just want to give us all a suprise and i get that. My hunch is Wednesday 27th but no idea why. The nursery is ready, they are ready, we are all ready and we now just have to wait a little bit longer! 1 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IVF is such a journey for everyone involved including the extended family. My daughters friend went through years of hearbreak too- like you with two failed attempts. Happy ending for her too 😊 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sunnyday Posted March 24 Author Share Posted March 24 Youngest granddaughter's show was just brilliant, one very proud nana here! ❤️ It was a 'mash up' - Under the Sea and Beauty and the Beast - sounds bizarre but was actually really clever. Have a great week/part week all in the lead up to Easter! 3 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still can't quite believe hs is here. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually I hope the weather improves for all of us, this rain is just depressing. Have a lovely weekend and Easter break x I am very, very glad to have reached the Easter holidays! I have spent today mostly in pjs, reading a book completely guilt free - it was bliss! I had a little walk round the park with mum and dad in a moment of sunshine. I did find myself thinking 'can I go to bed yet?' at about 6pm! Weekend plans include Sunday lunch at my sisters - I'm taking pudding but have no idea what at the moment. I also need to finish her long overdue birthday present and properly plan out my TDL for the holiday. I took no real time off at all over half-term and am not doing the same again! 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sunnyday Posted March 30 Author Share Posted March 30 I don't know if I dare mention this - I will whisper - the sun is shining here this morning - two loads of washing out and third load in machine now - granddog has had a fabulous run in our little field, I have said before I'm sure she must have some greyhound in her, she runs like the wind! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Up here too. I have a load of washing on the line have done the menu plan and food shop and am just sitting down to some elevenses. I 'should' be doing the cleaning but a cup of tea and mini eggs were more tempting. I have settled on a passion fruit tart for my contribution to Easter lunch which I've never made before. Beetroot and feta risotto for tea tonight and purple sprouting broccoli - it's a very colourful veg weekend! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
