Gave my friend the details of BANDA today. Bit nervous as she will be able to see all my whines about Stuart etc and usually I like this to be my secret little moany place about life. So keep it stum (*****!)

Dont want to use her real name incase she wants to use an alias.

Its my friend who has a 4yr old son and who sadly lost her beautiful daughter a few hrs after she was born in June. I'l let her tell you all about herself if/when she is ready. She has lots of free time & would be great if she made some friends on here to chat to when her sons at school. I lied & told her you were all lovely

Hope she joins now or i'l look like an idiot saying she would ! x

She will be more than welcome when she joins... looking forward to 'meeting' her x

If you click on any of our tickers under our posts, it will take you to the website where you can make your own xx

It's like treading water isn't it, some days you manage to keep afloat but other days you completely go under and you don't know what type of day its going to be untill it happens!

How far along ar you with your new pregnancy?

Ollie was my first but were ttc number 2 at the moment xxx

Welcome to Banda Laura! Looking forward to getting to 'know' you, so so sorry for your loss. We are all always here to listen to anything people have to say!
Theres a good bunch of girls here!

i am 14weeks along tomorrow, had 3 scans so far but wont know if there is a problem with the heart until 24 - 28weeks when the heart people will do a scan for me,

so sorry for your loss too, it is like treading water stupid things set me off like someone on facebook writing that theyr pregnant and dont want to be or lookingat the babys 1st christmas cards, but im getting better at not bursting out crying

to begin with i used to sit in the mall in town and bawl my eyes out, even now i still dont think i could go to town alone, its too upsetting

Hi Laura, im Laura too

Im so sorry to hear about your little girl. My little girl, Aimee, also had a couple of serious heart conditions that were not diagnosed until she was 2 days old, and we were very lucky not to have lost her.

I am also currently pregnant and have had some heart scans in this pregnancy (at Oxford, not sure where you will be going) to make sure that all is ok.

Feel free to PM me anytime you like if there is anything I can help with xx

Laura to make a ticker click on one of mine, or go to lilipie site.. make your ticker and the get the long code for forum signatures (highlight it and then right click to copy), go back on here and at top you should see 'profile'. Click it and then click signature. Enter the code (right click &paste) the code from liliepie in the big box at the bottom.

You can paste several codes beneath eachother if you want more than one type of ticker eg bday/loss/pg/xmas/married etc...

hi laura nice to have you here, sorry about the loss of your little girlxx
welcome to the madhouse x

Do they know if its a genetic thing or was it a one off?

I don't go anywhere on my own anymore, I can't face it in case someone asks me how I am or a couple of people have asked me how the babies doing!

This time of year is so difficult because we were palnning very different Christmases, I've kind of come to terms with it becuase I've bought him loads of christmas stuff for his grave, not what I wanted to do but I still feel he's included xxx

Welcome Laura! You will absolutely love this place. And any friend of Snoopy's is automatically a friend of mine!
