    What a shame to lose some of this thread....I was thinking of printing it out for DD to read when she's older to tell her how many people were cheering her on. Is there anyway to recover it? Oh well.

    Heidi is going well, we're hoping at her weigh in tonight she'll hit the 2kg mark! What a milestone. She's breathing completely unassisted now, not even oxygen required and they've taken her chest leads off too so less monitoring! Her stomas are going beautifully and she's really looking like a different girl compared to the weeks where she was unwell. Its truly amazing. We had another great breastfeed today. They may also take her central line out this week and the next step will probably be an open cot when these bubs are doing well they move them quickly - a bit disconcerting for us but great for her. All steps closer to bringing her home.

    Oh Wow *Infinity* isn't she a clever little girl, breathing completely unassisted, central line coming out and talk of an open cot, wow some very big milestones, and bring on the 2kg!!!!!
    It can be overwhealming when it all happens at once as it can often do

    I keep all my notifications so I have all the posts for this thread that I am more than happy to send through to you, so you can compile it all together and fill in the gaps, it just won't have the pretty Avvies and smilies. Hopefully there is a chance it can be recovered

    Take care xxoo

    What wonderful news! This was the first thread i thought of when i knew data had been lost. Would be great if we could piece it back together. One of the other threads said something about being able to find lost posts on google by using the thread title.

    So great that Heidi is feeling better and looking stronger.
