Sorry ment to say before I dont know how to put the facebook link in but if you add me as a friend you can see some photos of baby Xavier and a few of Campbell.
On a random but tangential subject to the elevit... I once saw a very convincing presentation on the rise of asthma, but this is a UK thing. You can track new homes and asthma increases really well. What basically happened is that we used to have cold, dry, draughty homes with rubbish windows. Now we have proper windows and blocked up chimneys and better heating and had warm damp houses as they aren't circulating air anymore, and this causes the massive rise in childhood asthma apparently. Not sure how that applies to Australia, but I suspect re-circulating air con is a culprit too.
I too am still taking elevit, but more for the vitamins than the folic acid. Being veg, thought I'd better cover my bases!
just had an email from my hospital dietician spookily who has told me to take the elevit all the way through to breast feeding, so I think we're all ok!
Thanks for the tip about Elevit from your dietician londonmiss, what good timing!
Glad to see you're okay boc though still without a computer - I share your pain. As much as I love my iPhone it's just not the same. And I hope you're resting up well and following doctors orders.
For those with scans soon, I discovered if I held the ultrasound films up to my white computer screen the light and brightness made it very easy to see the images!! DH thought I was a little nuts but it did the trick
AFM - home today with a headache. Think really I just needed a lazy day as I've slept most of the day. Am now lying on the couch reading my "Shopping for Baby" magazine for the zillionth time, I love it!
For anyone who wants to up their Iron intake my midwife has just started me on a liquid Iron supplement as I was borderline anaemic.. She recommended Floradix or Spatone.. I went for the Spatone and it's just a clear liquid in a sachet (middie told me to take 2 sachets) and you add it to a glass of juice containing Vit c as that helps it absorb the best.. I just get mine from the health food store... The reason the liquid form was recommended was because it doesn't cause the constipation that iron tablets can... HTH someone...
