mitch & tiggy- I'm so sorry, I didn't see your welcomes, thank you so much!

carrie-I'm glad to hear there is a light at the end of the tunnel as far as the babies settling down goes, it's just getting through this tough bit that is the challenge!

nickers-I was in and out of hospital with premature labour at 29, 33 and 35 weeks. i had steroid injections at 33 weeks to strengthen his lungs just in case he did come (i thank god for that!), and he decided to make his entrance just 2 days after I was discharged the last time. I had GD and was going to be induced around 39 weeks anyway, and after my last hospital visit was told he will be here any day and was a nice size. some walking set labour off for me, and after being in and out of hospital, opted to not stop labour (by the time I got to the hospital i was 5cm anyway so not much hope of stopping him). He weighed 6lb 5oz - probably huge in comparison to all the tiny bubs here!

I just got some tough news - blake has a fever and an ear infection, and ive got conjunctivitis and PND. ive known for a while something isnt right with me, hopefully the low dose of anti depressants helps out.
