Her state is Iowa (are we really so forgettable?), and I have heard nothing more from her since last Friday.
I hope she was able to get her daughter, was thinking about it all weekend.
CLT747 was probably right...

The child has to sleep some time!
Yeah... but if mom hasn't been used to dealing with a hyperactive 4 year old that is dealing with a lot of stuff right now, I am betting mommy is sleeping right next to her...
Probably, literally.

She was logged in around 3:00 on Friday, viewing the thread. I had hoped she was updating then... Guess not.

Well, I'm not betting that. In the course of 3 days, there would have been at least some opportunity to update the people that she sought this intense help from and like was noticed on Friday, she was logged in later in the day after the posts predicting she would not get the child were posted that she had to have seen.
I have "hyperactive" twins (literally, dx ADHD) and work full time and would have still managed to pop off at least a one-liner -- "I got her. Will post more when I have time" or "I tried and I didn't get her. Will post more when I have time."
This entire post took me <60 secs to write.

I'm usually suspicious when a person's actions don't match the level of desperation, determination, or resolve of their statements.
Show of hands, parents--if someone had your child and wouldn't give him back, would you spend all day online venting about your problems, or would there be a big you-shaped hole in the front door of the person who had your child? I understand her initial problem was that she thought she had no choice, but after the first two or three "go get your child" posts, I would have expected to hear the sound of her front door slamming before her "thanks" post cleared the board.
Maybe I'm just getting too cynical in my old age.

Ma'am, if all I had to fight off the people that took my kids were my bare hands and a kitchen chair, I would have burst in there like an off Broadway version of Siegfried and Roy.
I'm with you......I'd probably have my broom handy

The thing I am worried about cause I followed her story, is that she went to get child and since Gma knew everyone, she was arrested... Gosh sometimes I hate podunk towns!

Yes, but at 4:00 Friday she wasn't at the daycare fighting for her child, she was logged on here.

Sadly, I agree that she probably didn't get her daughter....
