Angel still has the chest infection, Dr has put her on stronger AB's now , which means a nasty nappy rash no doubt, preparing already by coating her bum with vaso lol!

She has the sniffels! I think that it's just a bug she caught at daycare. We are seeing the dr tomorrow for her six month check-up and then he can take a look at her. I called him as soon as I caught the blocked nose, he told me just drops and then he will see her tomorrow. I also think she teething. Last night was a shocker. She screamed for half an hour, jamming her fist in her mouth and being miserable. I did try some gum-numbing stuff, but that made her sick and even more fussy. I massaged her gums and then she stop crying, but as soon as my finger is out of her mouth, she gets red in the face and knaw on her hand. Poor baby!! She passed out later, totally exausted, shame.
I hope all of your babe's is ok!
How is Lelani now Nadine? Hope she is better
hi storm,how are you and the troops?poor harry has been in the wars,we spent 3 days at the royal childrens hospital with perferated ears drums,bronchiolitis and dehydration,he was not well for a few days,wasnt eating,took him to the dr and they sent him straight to hospital,he was on oxygen and tube fed for 2 days.he was refusing all food(formula) and couldnt breath properly so needed assistance,his ears were sooo bad,they were weeping prefusly.he is much better now and we have an appointment next week to talk about his respiratory problems and the possibilty of gromits for his eras,he is still fussy with his food and is completly refusing solids.but all in all better than he was that is for sure,
nikki
OMG Nikki you poor thing. I hope Harry will be okay. He looks such a cutie in the picture.
Storm hope you guys are all ok.
We are all fine, Eleanor loves her food she has good days and bad days with her formula. She's back at the physio next week first time in a month so hopefully this will be our last visit.
OMG Nikki!! Poor Harry, he sure has been in the wars, glad to hear he is doing better.
Angels chest is now 70% clear woo hoo & putting vasso on her butt stopped the rash.
Hi Michelle!!All doing well!!Fatty now weighs 9.3kgs best of luck for Eleanor at the physio .
Wow Angel is doing well Jo.
I think Eleanor has only just passed 8kilos.
OMG Nikki, poor Harry and poor you, i hope he's on the mend now.
Orlanda is still doing great, i started her on solids a couple of weeks ago and she's gradually getting the hang of it, aside from that she's still a booby girl. She is very happy and aside from not liking being too far from the nearest cuddle she is fine.
Had another trip to hosi with Indie this weekend, he swallowed one of the metal balls from his brothers magnetix, i felt like the worst mother on earth, we now have an x-ray of his tummy with what looks like a full moon in it and are waiting for nature to take it's course.
We also have a new dog, have completed on our block and are waiting for a meeting with the builders to decide on bricks, roofing etc......
Hope everyone else is keeping cosy this weather.
Taz
Oh dear Taz, what a nightmare I dread the day Zaccie does that trick, although I managed to escape it with the bigger 3.What kind of dog did you get? & Yay for the land being ready too!!
Hi guys, great to hear everybody is doing ok. Exept maybe taz! Sorry, it's just that I think it's funny, not the hospital side, but swallowing a metal ball and having a great X-ray to show people on his 21st birthday!!!!!!! Hope it comes out soon enough. And I am sure nobody thinks you are a bad mother!!
Lelani is doing OK. Giving me ups and downs. She does not drink her bottle well, but eats all her cereal and veggies. Pead said I should not worry. She looks happy. The last two nights she was very fussy. Cried alot. I am dreading teething.
Well the marble has left the Indie...... nature took it's course on Monday night and we are now safe to stand behind him when he bends over without fear of being shot!! I never had any of this with my older 2 but then i suppose they didn't have any older brothers toys to experiment with.
The dog is a 3 year old begian shephard/shetland collie cross, he's lovely, some people i know sadly had to return to the uk in a hurry and needed someone to take their dog, I'm a sucker so we now have another dog. Dominic has adopted him and boy and dog are inseperable which is nice for both of them.
I am so looking forward for the build starting, we need the extra space, Orlanda is still in with us as she has nowhere else to go, with the new house each of them will have their own room and best of all we'll have loads of space outside for them too. Just a pity it all takes so long..... i'm not a very patient person.
If anyone's interested I've added a few more pics to my totsite, I don't get much time to play with it these days.
LOL Taz imagine the damage that would have done hahahaha
Angel has got a clean bill of health, lungs clear & no more AB's hope it lasts longer than 3 weeks this time.
Oh & putting the vasso on her bum stopped the nappy rash from coming, *phew*, Ab's have caused such feral nappy rash before, so yay yay ya ya
Nikki, how is Harry now? It's so hard having a sick one, hey? Hope he is all better now.
That's good news Taz. Hope the house build doesn't take too long.
Jo wonderful news about Angel hopefully she stays well for a little longer.
Nikki i hope Harry is better.
Eleanor is doing great. We borrowed a jumperroo from a friend and Eleanor loves it since usinh it she now stands up on your legs.
Well the good health didn't last too long, she is sick again!!
Michelle, hope Ellie & Alex are ok.
Nikki, how is Harry?????????
harry is going great guns,we went to the childrens hosp on friday and he was given the all clear.the day care center informed me that there was a case of german measles in his room today.......oh dear!
nikki
Great to hear Harry is well Nikki. Fingers crossed the german measles stay away!!
How is Angel Jo ?
Alex is much better you wouldn't think anything was wrong with him today. Hopefully they all sleep well tonight as i could do with a good nights sleep.
Nikki hope Harry doesn't get german measles.
Angi is terrible, so congested her eyes are all puffy. But she seems to be sleeping well.
Good for Alex, maybe it was just a short term fever & it fought off what was wrong.So glad he is better.
Jo how is Angel going ?
Alex has had these fevers a few times and then bounces back as if nothing has happened.
Eleanor still isn't 100% and i so would love a good nights sleep. She does seem a little better today and i am making her eat as i think that is part of the problem she is crying because she is so hungry but it hurts to eat. I know i may sound mean by doing it but she is used to 3 solid meals a day and also milk.
aaarrrggggg,harry is sick again,he has been vomiting nonstop for the past 24 hours,i have him only on water but he is very unsettled cos he is hungry,but everytime i try his bottle he just brings it all up.my washing line is full of harrys clothes and towels.he now has a temp,so keeping an eye out for any dreaded rash.......hopefully it is onl;y gastro and he will start to improve soon.have to wash his car seat cover too!!!!!!!
nikki
Oh Nikki you poor thing and poor Harry also. I hope he starts to feel better soon.
Oh no Nikki, poor little Harry. Hope it is only gastro & he is all better tomorrow.
Michelle, you dont sound mean at all, gosh I have sat there with a syringe of water forcing Angel to drink it the 1st time she got the broc.You have to do it, they can't just sit there & waste away.
She is OK today, a bit snuffly, but not like yesterday.Gotta take her back to the quack today to get her lungs checked.
I tried that with her milk last night so she would have something in her tummy.
It helps I reckon only if it is a little bit it is better than nothing.
I think Eleanor is finally over the worst of it. She's starting to feed a bit better and is sleeping well during the day. I guess that is why she now wakes at night.
harry is up to day 6 of gastro,he has lost 2 kilos and is on daily visits to the dr to watch his hydration,still on water only since last thursday,he has had a few small amounts of formula but it is so much messier when he vomits,poor thing.
nikki
Poor Harry that's a long time to have gastro. 2Kilos is a lot of weight for a baby to lose.
Eleanor now has Roseola which hopefully is the end of her viral infection.
Poor Harry Nikki, wish there was something they could do for him that's an awful long time for a baby to have gastro.
Poor Eleanor too Michelle, hope she will be better now the rash has come out.
Well Angel is better (fingerscrossed she stays that way) she wont take solids off a spoon any more it has to be finger food in her bowl, I just don't think they get to eat enough this way.
i know,im a nurse and even i dint realise it could go on for this long.i just hope chantelle doesnt get it next.
nikki
storm just curious....why are you shocked????
nikki
lol Nikki, I am shocked I have my head burried in the sand & I am hiding too!!
Goodness guys you all seem to be having your fair share sick bubs,i hope they are all on the mend now and things start to get better for everyone. There is nothing worse than having a sick wee one and the helpless feeling of not being able to make it better.
Things are fine here, Orlanda is now up to 3 meals a day, still not taking a huge amount at each meal (around a third to half a jar), still not sleeping all night either but generally happy and smiley, rolling around everywhere and trying to sit up.
I have tilers coming next week to do the floors, that will be fun (not) god knows where we'll put all the furniture as it's going to take 5 days, but it will be great when it's done. We had our pre start meeting for the new house last week, all very exciting and stressfull at the same time but another step closer.
Sending good health vibes to everyone.
Taz
Hi Taz,
That is great Orlanda is on 3 meals a day for you. It must be so nice to watch her trying to sit up. Did you get my last email ?
Eleanor is much better now, she's still on two solid meals a day as it's the only way to get her to drink more milk. I went and brought her a walker today never thought i would buy one but i want to get her to use her legs more ready for when we see the physio on the 4th. She's working out how to go backwards and i am having to put it away when she is not in it as Alex gets in for a play.
Nikki how is Harry now ?
Jo how is the lovely Angel ?
Michelle... no didn't get an email i still have the same email address but it went through a couple of weeks of playing up a while back so maybe thats the cause.
LOL at the baby walker, O is in hers just now, shouting cos she's backed herself into the patio doors and can't figure out how to go forward.
I meant to ask too girls.... does anyone have any weight loss tips, i just seem to be getting bigger and bigger and i'm dreading summer cos i will be too big to wear any summer clothes.
Taz i joined WW and since having Eleanor i have lost 25kilos. I lost 12 of that with WW.
I'll email you in a about 10mins :)
WOW MICHELLE that is fantastic :clap::clap: you must be very proud of yourself and you must look completely different.
I have put on loads since O was born, mostly round my middle and I'm struggling to get anything to wear, I'm really getting quite down about it, which in turn makes me eat more.
You know what, you've really inspired me I'm off to look on the WW website to find a meeting near me and see if i can pluck up the courage to go. Thanks for that.
I do look a lot different from the last time you saw me just before you had Orlanda.
I've not done so well over the last few weeks with Eleanor being sick as i have been eating what ever and when ever i can.
They should have a meeting near you. The lady that does ours is from Butler and the UK.
Found one...... tomorrow morning at 9.30...... i hope i can go through with it and not chicken out when tomorrow morning comes.
Got your email thanks
I'll keep you going :)
I still have your mobile number I'll sms to make sure you have gone :)
please do, i seem to have lost all my confidence these days and have reached the stage where i'd rather just stay in than have the hassle of going out so i need a big boot up the bum.
