Yeah Michelle, I wondered about meningitis too, but never thought aneurysm. I really hope she's okay, I'm so worried.

Thinking of you Jayne, I wish there was something I could do for you xxx
Oh poor Jayne and poor Jess... My thoughts are with them.

Far out! Poor Jayne and Jess. I'm praying like crazy that she's ok.
OMG... I'll send her a message now!! I've been worried about her but had no idea it would be anything like that... so scary. Poor thing has been through enough lately, why do things like this keep happening to such amazing people... life just isn't fair but I'm praying all is fine!!

Anyone heard anything from Jayne??? I'm really worried. Sent her a message last night and haven't had a response.. I don't want to keep bugging her but hope we hear something soon.
As for me... I had another scan today to follow up the brain measurements and all is still looking great... I'm soooo releived. They even said we probably didn't need to worry about another scan - YAY!!! Best of all... they finally switched the machine to 3D for us today and we got to have a really good look at bubs face... it looks soooo much like Luke did.. a little cutie!!! It's incredibly exciting, I can't contain myself... really need to scan the pics in and get them up on FB!
Hope everyone is doing ok.

OMG, poor Jess! I hope everything is ok Jayne, thinking of you.
I was hoping that we had some more news on Miss Jess too. Jayne I can't even begin to imagine how scary a time this is for you. I wish I was closer so I could do something to help. Just know that you are all in my thoughts and am hoping like mad that everything is ok :hug:
Kelly WOOHOO on a wonderful scan and how exciting that you got to see bubs face in 3D. How is Luke doing?
Bun how are you and the family doing? I hope all the sickness has left you all alone for a while.
Michelle how are you coping hun? I know you are doing it all on your own now and have been thinking of you lots :hug: Oh and I should let you know that every single time Sage sees me on FB he asks to see George and says "oh bubba george, so cute" lol.He is right though cos George is very cute ;)
I'm so happy atm. Sage has been in undies for 5 whole days and we've only had 2 accidents. He even tells us he needs to wee when we are out.He was funny on Tuesday as he and I were trawling the car yards to try and find me a new 2nd hand car(finally) and he even told me he needed to go to the toilet then hahaha and best of all he sat on a big person toilet seat and didn't freak out. He has a little seat with a step attatched here and at the inlaws house so I am very very proud of him. He's woken from his naps dry each day too but he still wears a pull up to bed during the day and a nappy at night.
I hope everyone else is doing well.
Mako - Sage is sooooo cute :D
Just a quick one as I try to settle the masses. I received a very special bundle of gifts in the mail from my PAML cheersquad yesterday which was such a special surprise. I know Willow has been trying and trying to get over here but the bugs keep beating her (hopefully they are actually getting better today too!!!) so it was postal rather than hand delivered. The good news is - my little man is so little he will fit into his gifts for quite some time ;) Not to mention they are PERFECT for our trip back to the IL's in a little while and for the evening football games. Perfectly toasty. And there is some encouragement to actually print off some of our pictures. In particular, my gift is just stunning. I just need an occasion to wear it to :think: I know - how about Melbourne!!!
It looks like Melbourne is in the planning. My gorgeous best friend is putting in a request to have that weekend off and as soon as she lets me know the result (after the weekend) I should be able to make bookings. If the parents can come down early - great, but if not I still have back up plans in progress. I need the time away although I will pay for it when I get back. The month of September is a very, very tough one so a night away will be a blessing.
Week one solo down and we have survived. Finding a rhythm of sorts. Bedtime sucks because I am needed to settle all three but we will get there one day. And I got a 2 hour catch up nap today with someone to monitor the progressively waking little ones. BBL - moo girl wants boobie.
Just a question; what weekend are you all meeting in Melb?
Im still not sure Id be able to make it, but the inlaws are coming around 24th Sept for 2wks and Ry was talking about getting holidays for the whole time so I might possibly be able to steal away for a day/night/day. Might end up being a last min decision.
Hi my lovely Ladies,
Just a superly quick post. We are home with Miss Jess today. I wouldn't let them do a Lumbar Puncture on her & the other option was a MRI but they have to do that under GA & given that she had passed all her neuro tests with flying colours, they decided not to do the MRI unless she presents with headaches like she did Thursday morning. The initial suspect was menengitis, then it went to an aneurism or even a brain tumour. She was giddy all over, couldn't stand up, kept on lying on the floor saying she was falling down & unable to walk in a straight line & staggered sideways into the gurney in the GP's office. Also, she vomited persistently with a headache. So was all very scary & it's usually Claudia who gives me medical grief, Jess is the super healthy one of them. Anyway, they have decided that she had a dose of vertigo due to finding some fluid behind her ear drum which was still retracted following a big ear infection she had 6 weeks ago. Our GP has been notified & should she get another headache or start vomiting again, or get a fever, or anything of the like, I have to call him, who will put her back into hospital & then she will get the MRI. The way they explained things to me this morning, I felt really comfortable with bringing her home & she is back to her usual sparkly self today - attitude & all!
So, I'm officially DONE with hospitals. To think we didn't even visit the GP AT ALL in 2009 & already for 2010 I have met the Medicare Safety Gap!!!! Ridiculous. I think my nerves are freaking shots to pieces, my patience is about zero & I'm just about done with 2010. Wake me when it's 2011 please!!! Oh & Claudia has her biopsy on Thursday. Far out man. Thankfully Alan is home on Wednesday to share some of the load.
I'm so sorry for such a selfish post, entirely not my intention, I am a loser & have no life this weekend, so I'm sure I will make up for the selfishness.
Love Jayne
Far out Hun. My heart was racing just reading your post. It must have been terrifying. I can't tell you how happy I am to hear she is feeling better.
My thoughts will be with you for Claudia's biopsy. Bug cuddles from afar :hug:
Spring x
Michelle: congrats on week one flying solo. I love reading on fb about your adorable children. You are doing a wonderful job raising them.
Mako: WTG Sage!!! It's so nice when they are out of nappies. Makes life a little easier. That is until they want to start wiping their own pooey nappy (lol)
Freya: if you go to Melb will you be taking any kids?
Well we got a great tax return so don't piddle your pants but I'm thinking of trying to make it to Melb. I'll have to bring B but would most likely leave O with DH. So what are the dates? I have to consider also my IL's are there and if I visit without seeing them I'd be in huge poo. So just an idea at this stage.
Prob not Spring. Only because Ry should be on holidays and the inlaws should be here. If Stell were younger I would for sure. Im prob only going to stay a night (think I might push my luck with two after my 4 days at the GC lol)
:dance: this is looking bigger than Ben Hur :D I would be going down on the Friday 1/10 and going home Saturday evening but I am yet to sort out details. Can I pee my pants yet ;)
Right I'll get onto that seduction proposal when Ry gets back next week and see if we cant make this a massive meetup :rofl: :)
ETA - I can get flights for under $200 return to come home either the saturday or the sunday. What is the accomodation again? I scrolled back but cant find where everyone is staying at, I know its in the city right?
Michelle, Spring - maybe we can ordinate arriving at similar times to share taxi's or airport shuttle, and give each other a hand?
I feel so sad! As much as I would dearly love to take off to Melbourne and visit a heap of people in Victoria, when we're struggling to keep the rent paid and food on the table - not gonna happen!
But I finally lodged my forms to apply for the disability pension and had my assessment yesterday... It won't be a quick process, but if I get approved, the pressure will be lifted somewhat. Keep your fingers crossed, we NEED this!
Hope everyone has a great time!

I'm so freaking excited!!!!! I'm heading to Canberra with the boys on the Sunday afternoon, so maybe some of us will have another meet up at the airport LOL. I'll have to be super-organised and packed on the Friday so I can relax with all you lovely women on the Saturday. Did I mention that I'm excited????? :D
