Hope you have caught up on your sleep by now. It does sound like the dates were wrong. Must be soon now though.

Yes MWofG we have returned to a semi normal state but by my reckoning, if he didnt cover her on that date then she might have come back into season 3 weeks later.....which would possibly mean this weekend could be her due date  ???

Good luck Anke,

Willow was struggling so had to give her a wee hand and kid 2 arrived while she was busy washing number one, good going though for her first time
