Everything crossed for her this time Galen 
Congratulations Nannienet
Lovely news Galen pushing forty is not old, my Mum was 47 when she had my sister.
Well my DGD now 20/12 is fine, greeted me with ' ikad, in bag!'
It was!
Ikad is the iPad! And it was in my handbag? I'm not sure if its me or the iPad she's pleased to see, but she did enjoy my homemade boiled fruit cake.
That is so easy even I can make it
Galen, I too had lost a baby and was 'pushing forty' when my youngest was born - he's now 21 and a strapping lad of six feet.
I understand that you still can't help being a bit concerned though......it's a mothering thing I think.
Just heard today that my son's girlfriend is pregnant. It's early days yet so fingers crossed it will all go well
Deedaa

Galen - congratulations. I was nearly 39 when I had number 5 and I had also had a miscarriage previously. My 'baby' is expecting her second within a fortnight having had 3 miscarriages previously.
Persephone Grace was born at 12.55 this morning. She weighed 7lb 12 oz and looks gorgeous in the photos. I told you it was a corker of a name. 
Wow Kitty. Congratulations to you and hello to Persephone. It is a lovely unusual name
kitty, congratulations!
Congratulations kitty and welcome Persephone Grace. I like unusual names. .
So, we got a phone call at ten thirty last night and, as DD3 and family only live in the next village, I drove over in my pjs and fluffy dressing gown - luckily we weren't stopped. . At half past five they arrived home!! Persie is lovely with loads of really dark hair. Bertie won't even know they had been out - apart from finding an interloper!!!
Crikey, that was a quick turn around! I didn't like to ask earlier if she would be called 'Percy' !
Congratulations, Kitty and welcome to Persephone. 
Oh, lovely news Kitty. Welcome to the world Persephone Grace!
