Re: My Girls

Hey Pettina, I think our messages are crossing each other.

I've just realised that you're expecting. Congratulations!!

My doctor once told me that it was a good thing to feel so sick in the morning.
She said it
meant the baby was growing well. I can't repeat what my thoughts were to that!!
Some of
my friends/family were lucky enough to miss the nausea aspect of pregnancy and
they
went on to deliver happy, healthy babies, I couldn't see why I couldn't be in
their group. I
hope for you, those feelings subside quickly. You probably have your remedies,
but
Ginger tablets worked a treat for me (that and eating, eating, eating). Isn't
it weird (and
disgusting) that a pregnant woman can feel hungry and nauseous at the same time?

As for Isabella, oh dear. I have no experience there. I just feel for you both
(and for John
who probably wants all his girls smiling). I'll be thinking of you and I'm
sending you
hugs, and strength through the comfort universe.

xxx
Donna
