XxXKatXxX In hospital :(

Hello everyone,

I am not sure if you all remember Kat from this thread I have been talking to her daily since we met on mn. Well she has been doing fantastically well as I am sure you are all aware but for a little while she has been getting cramps like labour pains and last night she went to a&e as they became unbearable. She was admitted and hooked up to a drip and had scans, it appears that something was 'left in' or something that 'shouldn't have been there' was there following her emergency c section and has caused an infection in her womb and now there is a possibility that her ability to have children in future has been affected. Since she has been in hospital her bf has been in touch with me keeping me updated and asked me to post on mn on Kat's behalf.

I am in total shock and wish there was more I could do for Kat and her family, I have my fingers crossed for them all. This is so sad for them all and they have so much to deal with already.

Kat is unsurprisingly feeling very low and missing Tilly. Her bf is doing an astounding job of taking care of Tilly and Kats sister is at Kats bedside and has been the whole time. I was wondering if we could all send her our love,hugs and support and hope for a speedy recovery.

Thank you all in advance and I will update you as when I hear any news xxx

How dare you. I have spoken to Kat, her mother and her sister over the phone. She is a very brave young girl, going through a horrific experience and has asked me to post on mn on her behalf in order to get support and love from the friends she has made on here. You are accusing me of being a trol? Do a search, you will see I have posted many times on numerous threads onvarious subjects as has Kat, and her mother has on a few occasions again on Kats behalf. I have even posted pictues of my children on here fgs. God forbid anything even remotely similar to what Kat has been through happen to you or anyone close to you. You have truly upset me, and as for reporting me, how unbeleivably riduculous. If you still are in doubt as to how genuine an mner I am CAT me. I am disgusted.

You have been duped aswell then as babies that small do not go home

jessicaandrebeccasmummy · 21/09/2006 16:38

well you tell us how a baby of 4 days old, born at 28 weeks and only 2lbs in weight could possibly be BF and home - its stupid - would never happen - medical negligence at the very least.

And still you are trying to upset me as well as Kat, how very kind of you. Can you not find it in your heart to offer messages of support? If not I suggest you leave this thread.

TRIP TRAP

IME and IMHO this KAT person is a liar or a medical miracle baby

This miracle baby would be all over the newspap[ers and tv

CapedCrusader · 21/09/2006 16:43

But you still can't answer the questions though.

Nobody is having a go at you as such, but other than hearing someones voice, what makes you 100% sure she is for real?

SoupDragon · 21/09/2006 16:43

But Emskilou, the information posted points to this not being true. At least about the 2lb born at 28wk baby going home at 4day s old. It does not happen.

ills · 21/09/2006 16:44

OK lets have aphoto of this 28 weeker and stop all the arguing

lanismum · 21/09/2006 16:45

this horrible, must be so upsetting for the mumsnetters that have lost a baby

RTKangaMummy · 21/09/2006 16:45

Which hospital was this baby born at ?????

who was their doctor in NNU

misdee · 21/09/2006 16:46

this is a 28weeker i'm sorry, but there is no way a 28 weeker would be allowed home.

HRHQueenOfQuotes · 21/09/2006 16:47

have to say that having a sister and mother who can also been 'spoken' to (on the phone) sounds very reminsicent of a prize troll over on BW.....HM - you'll know the one I mean - the time when I was banned .

RTKangaMummy · 21/09/2006 16:47

exactly misdee

AvaLou · 21/09/2006 16:47

This is just getting silly.
A baby at that gestation would not be born and be fine, they wouldn't have the sucking reflex, their eyes would be shut, they would have papery skin, they would need serious medical intervention just to survive.

One of my closest friends had a baby at 29 weeks and I was with her throughout the 13 weeks her DD was in hospital, seeing her pain as she could barely hold her, and the scares they went through when she stopped feeding/ had heart failure/ bowel problems. Every day for them was a nightmare my friend didn't sleep for weeks and dropped 3 stone from the stress. Thankfully she is now a fit and healthy toddler so this is nothing to joke about.

Unless there was an enormous date discrepancy then this whole story is tosh and incredibly mean.

ills · 21/09/2006 16:47

Agree Misdee have seen lots of prem babies and they don't suckle till 32-34 weeks gestation and get very tired when they do start BF.

StanBoardman · 21/09/2006 16:48

RIGHT THATS ENOUGH

Leave MNHQ sort this out ffs

Posting on every thread that the "troll" is on is not going to help anyone, its bringing up bad memories of those who have lost prem babies

Call me a fool call me stupid, I made friendship with a young girl and her family and have believed what they have said to me. I'll leave this thread now, it has lost its purpose to give Kat and her family support. Makes me sick.

Poor emskilou and poor Kat too. She may have been lying but you have to be quite down and desperate and unbalanced to do something like this.

Kat go and get yourself some help.

Emskilou you've been really kind and you may have been duped as to the actual details of the person you were helping but remember, you probably still helped her in some way and she clearly needs help.
