Cronus wrote: Well actually that's not true. Spondylarthritis, 2 slipped discs, hypermobility and fibromyalgia and the fact a stupid consultant needlessly took her off all medication straight away means she can barely walk without crutches and is in constant agony, but fingers crossed it'll all be worth it. Baba is fine & growing nicely.
As for Kate & Wills - good luck to 'em.
Congtats Cronus. And for the very reason you have quoted about Mrs Cronus is why I am chosing not to have children (apart from the fact I have no maternal bone in my body ). I totally understand what she must be going through, its hard enough looking after yourself with the condition let alone a dependant baby. Good luck to you both and hope she can get back on her meds soon after the babys born.

Well congratulations to them and I hope it goes well.
As someone sarcastically added in the comments to the Daily Mail website's story - they will be pleased - makes life easy for them for the next 6 months! (I would suggest rather more than 6 months if things go well with the pregnancy / birth).
Sure enough, today their website is in over-drive - even computerised mock ups of what the child might look like if it's a boy or a girl. Quite frankly, I think that is distateful. What about Leveson?

Leveson is an attack on a free press and the ability of newspapers to commoditise the private lives of others, and sexualise underage girls for profit.

So not sure where your pile of crock comes from.
I thought he wasn't allowed to marry Camilla because she's a Cathoilc.

What about Leveson? I wasn't aware that it covered taste.

Thank you White Star!
Aye, it's hard going and she's only about halfway through. We had a plan of medication and pain relief worked out with our rheumatologist who then retired, and the new chap has decided he's not interested and dismissed her entirely. Amongst other things he said, "I know I've only seen you once but I won't be seeing you again." I've complained and we're hopefully being referred elsewhere.
She had chosen medication that allowed us to try for a baby but wasn't the strongest. Once she's given birth she'll be able to go on the strongest medication which is the difference between being able to walk, care for the baby and perhaps even go back to work, or hobbling around on crutches and being bed-ridden. I know you understand this all too well - just wish our bloody rheumatologist did!
