Hi everyone,
I hope all are doing fine. Realizing everyone is now going to be busy with delivery and then baby..and i may not get a chance to say this later, so my sincere thanks to everyone. I feel like i know so many people some who i won't even recognize if i see u somewhere, but i have had a great support system thru' this forum. My husband is always teasing me if i don't update daily forum khabar :), but honestly i have been thru my sugar tests, u/s, visa rejections, problems, shopping tips, naming baby everything more with u guys than with time spent talking with my family ..means a lot to me, seen many relatives backing out when Pa ma passed away,so seeing strangers helping others is such a positive feeling.
Thank u with all my heart (from both me and praveen infact)
I would like to atleast wish u guys on ur birthdays/baby bdays/etc. so if u could please send me ur email address to radhikap@hotmail (.)com..(if u feel comfortable sharing)so i can atleast wish u guys on happy occasions and remember how much u helped me during this event in our life. Now hearing about deliveries makes me happy even though i have never met bargavi/sandhya/khushi..great to have this feeling of knowing someone without having met them.
I wish u all the best and hope everyone has a peaceful delivery and enjoys being with family and friends and ofcourse a very happy life ahead as moms. bye
Thanks

nikki Radhika replied. Thanks to everyone who sent me mails today, was overwhelmed seeing messages in my mail a/c. I will try my best to keep in touch with all of u.
Ashra, be strong and cheerful everything will be fine and God willing ur mom will be there for ur delivery.
(Note: I have a feeling i am doing to have a son, not sure yet..miscarriage forum didn't think u would go thru it, just saw a message of a friend in trouble and that was long back..so we ended up being email friends.)
Nick u getting closer to the date..all the best. I will def. try to login yahoo forum whenever i get time.
Thanks once again for ur messages and contacts. Wish u all the best. have a nice time with ur husbands for the few weeks left to spend some alone time with them..take care.

Radhika kalyani replied. Hi radhika,

How are you?.Hope u are doing good.After reading your posting i almost have tears in my eyes.I feel the same way as u do.This board has helped me in many ways.As iam a house wife i stay in the house allday.I felt very bored.But after joining this october board i feel that many people are arround me.Iam very happy that we all are enjoying this board.I tell all our stories to my hubby daily.This board has not only become a part of me but also to my hubby.We must continue this even after having our cute babies.
Take care
Have nice weekend
with love from
kals sumana replied. Hi Radhika,

I was really moved by what u had written.Like all other girls this board has become a must see in the morning routine.If I dont see this forum , I feel as if I havent done something important that day.
Even yesterday I was telling my husband about Barghavi's delivery and other messgs, and he immediately asked ,so when are u girls going to meet.I was surprised that he understood that this forum has helped me in so many ways.
And Radhika, I think we had all decided that we would still be in touch even after our little ones make our life's busy.
Take Care,
Will mail u soon.
Sumana Ashra replied. Hi Radhika,
I really feel gr8 to have u as my friend.eventhough i know ur face i can easily come & recognize u...all these days u have been very supportive to all of us & esp me..u believe me r not after seeing all the problems u have gone thru in ur entire life(i just happen to see ur messages on the forum miscarriage & losses 2 days back)unknowingly i started sheding tears..i donno how u have overcome with all this.trust me i dont think i wud have been able to manage..Radhika ur son is going to be the luckiest person 4 having u as a mom..when i see ur problems mine is overshaded.The only problem which i am going thru is my parents not able to make it for my delivery.since i am the only daughter i was pampered like anything..my parents used to take care of me like anything. all i wanted to do is i want to bring them here & take care of them like how they use to do..i am sure they will be shocked if they see me now ..how resposible i am..i have been with my parents only for 18 yrs.the month i entered college ,i got married..my husband is my dad's elder sis's son.so i know right frm the beginning i am going to marry him.all those 18 yrs i have tortured my parents like anything,
by not going school,not eating i expect them to come & plead me to eat..always fighting with my mom,not helping her so many... if i think of that now i feel really bad..i badly want my parents to come & see me how i am here..my husband is also right equal to my dad.i am so lucky to have 2 gr8 ppl in my life. my dad & hus..myself & my husband used to talk lot abt u everyday..he use to console me by saying u see radhika how she is matured..taking life lite..eventhough i cant be u but i will try to follow u..these days i cant sleep at night if i am awake i keep thinking all \";Bakwaas\"; ..
Regarding hospital bag i have collected all the things kept in a rack but not yet packed..Regarding nursery i have car seat/crib yet to be fixed..Baby things i have got most of them.i am sure my cousin's and aunty r planning for a surprise baby shower but donno when??(this i came to know when my hus was talking to my aunty over the phone,i happen to take the other line;-) )so i will be set in another couple of weeks . as i am due in second week of oct.i shall send u all my details to ur id .pls i always wanted to be in touch with u...so that i can vent ;-) just kidding
Ashra Lakshmi replied. My dear Radhika,
Thanks for sharing your sentiments with all of us here. Although I joined this forum pretty late almost nearing my delivery, I must admit that I have always been a silent reader and have learnt so much from each one of you.

Yes we all go through our shares of sorrows and joys. I wish you all success and a happy delivery (when are you due) May God Always be with you and your family. Take good care of yourself and the lil one and stay in touch.

God Bless ! Manvi replied. Don't get so senti we are not leaving you!remember we must stay in touch after the li'l ones come.Anyway since we both have already exchanged emails I hope to stay in touch with you too.
But really yaar life has become so busy already&Iam really wondering how our future's going ot be.BTW looking forward to my lamaaz session this weekend! Nick replied. Hi Radhika

Felt good to read ur post and I also feel the same about this board.Though joined much later during my pregnancy visting this board everyday has become a part of my normal activities in life.
And you won't belive it I have not yet packed my hospital bag yet I have already told my husband from before that if I ever have to rush to the hospital for delivery he should update this site with any news.
