But delighted that the christening went ahead and that Millie was able to take centre stage in her first starring role.<BR/><BR/>My great niece, Amelia Rose, is also known as Millie.

Millie was my mother's name, and it thrills me there is a new baby in the world with that name. I'm guessing it is 'the' name, not Mildred, as my mum's was.Nanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15547916206007733970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22922478.post-77047714979520712292008-06-17T19:27:00.000+01:002008-06-17T19:27:00.000+01:00Hi Tanith.

Really sorry that you've had such a rough time of it. Let's hope they've sent themselves a collective memo re getting their act together when you go back in for the op. Millie looked so gorgeous in her Christening dress, and has a really winning yawn!Juliethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18055924620237477722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22922478.post-8551793163973583672008-06-17T18:50:00.000+01:002008-06-17T18:50:00.000+01:00I'll look that book up, Cath.

It isn't one I know. <BR/>Re the connection between gallstones and pregnancy - you can imagine we have been looking it up everywhere! - apparently the raised levels of oestrogen in pregnancy can trigger them.<BR/>(Maureen)monixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16631194815411019266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22922478.post-28604129823174231742008-06-17T18:27:00.000+01:002008-06-17T18:27:00.000+01:00You know, this gallstone problem happened to the d...You know, this gallstone problem happened to the daughter of a friend of mine just a few months after *she'd* had a baby. Are pregnant or newly delivered women women prone to gallstone problems I wonder? I don't know whether they tried to take the baby into hospital but I do know that my friend looked after her grandaughter (bottle fed I assume), so if they did try they obviously failed. In your case I find the hospital's attitude to be beyond understanding.<BR/><BR/>M: I bought 'Not Now Bernard' by David McKee for Scott (our grandson) today. It's a bit of a classic and I think he's going to love it.Cathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06371069000185280668noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22922478.post-55657462895549226912008-06-17T18:11:00.000+01:002008-06-17T18:11:00.000+01:00Welcome aboard, Tanith!

It is good to have you writing on RD and especially good to have you out of hospital.<BR/><BR/>Won't it be good when Millie can post as well and we can be three generations of randomly distracted women?monixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16631194815411019266noreply@blogger.com
