Hi all,
I've been reading but there is alot happening here and I never seem to find the time to reply! Also my sinuses are still playing up something shocking and I can only stand short times on the computer. Oh for a headache free day... Chemist Brand Pain Tablets are my best friend at the moment. I did have the CT done and the short version of the report is that they are stuffed. I see the surgeon in August and am crossing my fingers that they do a surgery sooner rather than later. But it is making it hard to be a mummy, thats for sure. I have a cold at the moment which will no doubt result in another infection so back on the antibiotic round about. grrrrr.
Bethany is getting cuter everyday! It is incredible watching her learn new stuff and just watching the world through her eyes. She gets on all 4s but no movement as yet. She also pushes her self in to a half sitting position where she still leans on one arm. That is pretty cute!
She is still really stuggling with her feeding. We made the switch to soy and that seemed to relive the "pain"symptoms for a while but now we are lucky if she takes 100mls a feed and we have to offer it she never "demands"anymore. She was weighed Friday at the hospital (more on that in a minute) and she has put on about 300gms in just over a month. Not a disaster but not great either. It works out to less that 50gms a week.
Anyway why we were at the hospital was our GP wanted a urine test done cause she thought Bethany had a UTI, guess what she does. It most likely has something to do with the fact that she has a small vaginal opening. It may mean that there are other abnormalties we can't see so she is off to the pediatrition at the end of next month for that and her feeding, she may end up there sooner if things get worse.
I feel like such a bad mummy. I can't get her to feed and I can't figure out why nothing has changed she just stopped one day. She has a UTI and I can't get her to get more water in. The best idea I had that works is using a wet washing that is pretty wet and cold from the fridge she loves sucking on that. But it seems like a pretty lame way to help your baby. My head hurts and I am worried about my baby.
On that rather depressing note I think I will head to bed.
Sorry bout no personals I will try better next time
