*squeals* G! So great to see that you're over the moon happy. He sounds divine - I bet he smells just gorgeous too, I miss that newborn smell LOL. Sounds like he will have quite different colouring to Lewis. And woohoo on the great birth too - can't wait to hear more about that when you're ready to share. Were you surprised at him being so small?
Andie, if that were me having to listen to that, I would seriously have kicked him in the nuts!! That is such an insult to you and just because he's at a low point in his life, that doesn't mean that he can excuse himself as their father by asking you such a question.
ROFL H at no doodles - I hope that doesn't mean you are getting great big ...... instead Have a great time and i tomorrow morning is kind to you.
welcome home Rainy!! ooh it must be so good to get home and show jimmy his new digs LOL!
MM: oooh do post a pic of the cake and all that jazz of the wedding! we do love a good wedding photo squizz!
PP: ah, exciting that you mum is coming and can help out a bit and YAY! for N taking those steps. for leila it took about 2 weeks to really find her feet and walk 24/7 ITMS.
AFM: wellllllll. let me tell you i have had a SHOCKER. have been in hospital since friday. i literally got of BB and felt really bad from the tonsilitis. at about 2am on saturday morning emergency (after ignoring me for approx 8 hours) told me that they couldnt do anything that the gp couldnt sent me packing. i returned about 6 hours later, unable to see, barely talk, vomiting and unable to stand. so you can imagine that the potential lawsuits must have flashed in their brains! so i was dealt with by the deputy director of emergency this time for them to find that my heart rate was sky high, i was severley dehydrated to the point that my veins had pretty much shrivelled into little prune like stems LOL! and my blood pressure had gone whacko. so was admitted and put on heart machines and pumped full of drugs and the bits and bobs through IV. (of course it took 3 attempts and 4 people to actually get the cannula in as my poor veins had gone on holiday). so yeah, have just got home an hour ago. i feel much better still very dizzy but at least i can walk. they told me that i had to be wheeled up there (cannae remember for the life of me LOL!). and i am very tired. have lots of drugs to take now and will have to see a specialist this week to see where we go from here...hopefully the big chop will be done. so want it!
and all this on our FIRST wedding anniversary.
Leila has been a champ through it all. our neighbours with toddlers took her in for the day and night and she had a ball. but was still stoked to visit me this morning in hospy.
Rainy!!!!!!!!! - I'm soooo happy for you. Congratulations!!!! I can't wait to see photos of Jimmy - makes me all clucky! Way to go on no tearing - great news.
Pp - that's great that N has taken his first steps. Wait until he's trying to climb the side gate like Hannah was doing this morning. I hope you get some nice sleep ins
Clare - OMG! you poor dear, that is absolutely horrible! Your poor dh must have been beside himself with worry. I hope you're feeling super very soon, and that the specialist can wave his magic wand and make sure you never feel like that again.
I'm feelin unwell, but feel bad even saying it after reading your post Clare. Think i should just drink a concrete milkshake and harden up!
Once again i have missed out on so much, hopefully i can keep up from now.
i spotted a post from Supa - how are you going?
Clare you poor thing that sounds horrible!! They need to take those tonsils out ASAP! Good old L for hanging with the neighbours, how handy that you have them.
Rainy YAY welcome back from the hospy with your precious new bundle! I am so happy that you are so happy!! Well done on no tearing thats a relief. I am looking forward to hearing all about your labour.
Jaz - I'm clucky too, will you go for a fourth?
Andie - So sorry that your ex and his family feel that way about A. How insulting!
Better go, the in laws are here for the weekend.................SOS!
Congrats again Rainy, so glad to here that things went well and that you are settling in nicely.
PP - way to go on the steps for N, there will be no stopping him shortly.
Clare - OMG you poor thing...what an adventure for you. Hope you feel better soon after getting those nasties out.
Andie - hugs...his question just makes your decision extremely validated now.
MM - Woohoo...how was the hens night? And 6 sleeps to go until you're a MRS!
Jaz - Haha on the milkshake. I tell people to take a teaspoon of cement and harden up but might have to borrow the milkshake line just to vary it a bit.
Hows everyone else? Trill...MD....Oz. All okay?
We're good here...Sarah is still not 100%. Dr said a ear and throat infection so will take her back tomorrow to see if its improving or not.
Hi everyone,
writing through tears after reading Arte and Pp's posts. I know how you're feeling too. My grandma has just moved into a high care unit too. My first visit I cried and cried. I 've been trying to visit her 3 times a week, and i usually leave her feeling very upset. My grandma has never been a real cuddler iykwim, but i hold her hand a play with her hair, because i just don't know what else to do. She is so sad. I think the thing that saddens me the most when i see all of them at the home, is that I don't know what their lives were like before they ended up there .... what were their interests, dreams and goals. What made them laugh, when did they fall in love etc, etc.
Anyway, great big hugs to you Arte and Preg.
Rainy - all of my girls have struggled with wind pains. Md's advice about the massage is a good one. Also, when you feed does your milk come out quite fast?
I'd love to hear about how precious Jimmy entered the world Stay safe.
mm - i hope m's rash isn't anything nasty. It's not a heat rash is it?
clare - that is seriously scary.!! We're so lucky that you're ok.
oz - hope you get some energy back soon.
