Huge strain on marriages. You both need be physically and emotionally strong. Been through it five times - after every one failed the wife made me promise not to go through it again. Six months later she always wanted to try again - nightmare. Decided it wasn't going to work so went down the adoption route. The process is a long winded tiresome one but eventually got matched with a wonderful little boy December last year. I would post a picture but as the legal process isn't finished, I better not. It's a hell of a process but more than worth it in the end! It is indeed, but I suppose it has to be rigorous for obvious reasons. Well done, and congratulations. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Completely understand the need for the process to be thorough and rigorous especially in light of some of the well documented cases where it has gone wrong.I suppose it's just frustrating that the legal part has been ongoing since December 2016. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grumswall Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 just a little update. Think it may be the change in milk (today is her first day on the non cows milk) but we've been putting loads of the qv cream on her and she's starting to look more like herself again. Not getting as wet dirty nappies either so it's all coming along nicely. Eta above her lip and her eyebrows tend to be a bit tricky to get the cream on so are still looking a bit rougher. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grumswall Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 She would take Scott brown in a tackle the way she trys to chuck herself about at times. She's ridiculously strong for a 5 n a bit week old. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which was probably about half my bpm. Many excellent members of P & B have been active via the PM function but 3, in particular, have offered advice, given the chromosome balanced translocation and the greatly increased risk or another Patau bairn. But all is good thus far. Grimbo. 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

19QOS19 Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 That’s lucky for you then as you won’t have had these frustrating weeks to piss you off! I just feel bored and annoyed now after weeks of excitement. My wee one was 8 days late (Knowing what I know now it's no surprise given how lazy she is). The day of my Mrs' water breaking we had went a drive on a pretty bumpy road and I took all the speedbump streets. I'm not saying that was the reason but the midwife did suggest we do that so it possibly played a part. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
