yay to new friends. and no, you don't sound like an idiot :)
golly, so you only took 6 months off from PhD-ing to have the babe? I'm wondering whether to ask for a 6 month interruption or a year. (Presumably I can always go back early if I ask for a year, but it might be more awkward to ask for ANOTHER interruption, especially as I've only just got an extension on grounds of illness anyway...)
