Thank you so much everyone, for all your information and support.
Deb, I hope I can show you one day how much I appreciate all your help and love. All that stuff about playing music etc is just what I wanted to hear. I was telling DH today how much I want to be there for this baby, and help him/her on it's journey. I need to know the ways that we can be involved, I want to be as involved as I possibly can through the time in NICU/SCN. This is OUR baby, I want it to know from the start that we are there, and how much we love it. So ALL of your info is so helpful.
Rivlas, thank you so much for the offer, I will remember that .
Sally, you know, I thought of you on Friday night. How you'd had two premmies, and what different journeys they'd had. Thanks for your support hun.
Beema, thanks for all your info . We went and had a look at SCN in our private hospital today, spoke to a nurse, and the parents of triplets (they were the smallest babies in there ATM, and still not as small as ours). I'm sure bub will go to NICU in the tertiary hospital if born now (same building). But it was still helpful to see where we'll end up......or hopefully start!
Kate, thanks hun, we won't be baby buddies, but I'm still following your pg and can't wait to see your BA.
Squidipa, I thought of you too hun. I hope things go well for you tomorrow, I was telling DH about you today, he felt so sad for you having all this stress. ATM they think our baby is just over 1000g. But I can't take the u/s weight guesses for granted, I don't trust them enough . My Ob is looking more at the measurements, and the SD ratio. Ours is head sparing, so the head is on the charts, but the other measurements are all way off. What are they saying about your bub?
Mrsmac, thank you so much . Probably a bit far to courier a meal LOL, but thank you.
Rosebud, thanks for that tip. I do a bit of work with the ABA, so I am going to sort out the pump stuff this week, JIC. I think I will organise to hire a Medela Symphony, with a double collection kit. The words that that mother shared with you have stayed with me........thank you for that. I'm sure that's a really important piece of advice.
Divvy, thank you so much for that offer hun. As you probably read above, I am going to hire a pump at first, but if I need another a little down the track I will sing out to you. Really appreciate it Div .
Ginger, that is so generous of you, how lovely! I have a wonderful friend with a three month old who is happy to donate some EBM for now. But if we end up needing a bit more I will certainly keep you in mind hun .
Didispunk, thanks for that reassurance, it's good to hear happy stories
CTG was okay today, but not quite what they were looking for, so we're back in again tomorrow. Hopefully bubba will give them the accelerations they're looking for!
