Leaky sorry to hear you have been at hospital AGAIN?

leakyR · 26/06/2007 18:49

Pinions G was going for scan to check there's no scarring on his kidneys from the UTI.

I also meant to say that the Scottish babies are all gorgeous as are their older sibs by the look of things.

Off to feed grizzler now.

Leaky, sorry to hear the hospital visit went so badly. It must be terribly hard to watch your baby being upset, and the rest, that way. Hope that the tests go better next time and the results show he's ok.

Pinions · 26/06/2007 19:15

Leaky bless - must be awful aswell having to see all those needles go in etc. I am so bad with that that DP has to take bb for injections. T screaming downstairs so have to go back later x

bubblez · 26/06/2007 19:23

oh leaky i missed your post, sorry to hear about G's hospital visit, hope that in a months time they'll have an easier job finding his viens and that everything'll be fine...xxx

maveta - your lo is adorable, and i think the dark full head of hair gives away his spanish side...

Pinions · 26/06/2007 19:49

T is listening to James Morrison cd in his moses basket - works every time - he should be out like a light in 10 mins.......

Pinions · 26/06/2007 19:52

3 minutes - thats a record magic!!!!!!!!!!!

Sexonknackeredlegs · 26/06/2007 20:31

Evening ladies.

Maveta, Noah is gorgeous!

Bubblez, snuck a look at your 2 as well, and they are gorgeous too!

Leaky, sorry to hear you had such a bad time at the hospital today. Big hugs to you both.

Not much going on here. B was fab this evening which was a relief.

Feeling a bit pants tonight - think it is probably stress related as dh off in the early hours tomorrow and won't be back until after the dreaded bath/bed time routine. Wednesday is also the day I have both of them and have to get to gymtots, back home again, grab lunch and then to swimming. I manage it ok, but the thought of it literally makes me feel sick. Pathetic I know, as many cope no problem. Also wondering if K is ok, as had 3 poos today - normally we just get the 1. Apologies for yet again discussing my fave subject!!

daisyboo · 26/06/2007 20:34

Just crashing in to LOL at your thread title

oooggs · 26/06/2007 20:36

Ellie - if you are about - thanks for your help regarding freecycle - have just recycled my first thing and oh no I think I am addicted dh has just rung from work and he is very very worried to what I am going to get rid of next

elkiedee · 26/06/2007 20:50

oooggs, what did you freecycle and what does your dh fear you might get rid of?

I think I'd have to pay anyone to take away most of our junk, though the neighbours did ask if they could take a dodgy bookcase from outside. (Yes, absolutely, with pleasure)

oooggs · 26/06/2007 20:54

only my collection of novels which I haven't read for years (or got the time too). He knows what I'm like - currently as soon as dt's grow out of anything I have ebayed it - think he has got the hint we are no having anymore children

Luckly can't think of anything else to freecycle at the moment to he can sleep in peace tonight

Katy44 · 26/06/2007 20:59

Lesley what a horrible experience
Finally seen maveta's pics after the connection dropped last time! Noah is lovely, I thought the one below was where you were pregnant - then I saw a little face peeping out
Hope everyone is OK, T going for jabs tomorrow and mum coming with me, so have stocked up on the calpol!

Hi all

Have finally got computer working properly, I hope

Bubblez - really sorry you're having such a rough time of things. Dont think you weren't strong enough to go through with it, it must have taken a huge amount of strength to make the decison you did. You did what was best for you and your family. Doesn't stop it hurting though I know. Your LOs are gorgeous BTW

Dippy - yay for P smiling today - makes the early mornings so much easier to cope with i find!

Maveta - noah is adorable too!

And thats as much as i remember!

Dylan had his hip scan at the hospital this morning and both hips are now fine, in fact they are grade 1 which is as good as it gets!
Had him weighed yesterday though which didnt go so well, he only gained 2.5 oz in the last week. He is 10lb 1 at 9 weeks so is now below the 9th line. He started out on the 91st line at 8lb13.5 and hv (the nice one!) said thats the most she would want him to drop, if he drops anymore will have to think about supplementing him I know thats not a bad thing and i did it with dd and ds1 but just really didnt want to this time. Am hoping its just cos he's had a bit of a cold as the week before he gained 6.5oz which is his best ever. Still got all the usual crap about am I drinking enough, make sure i eat lots and dont overdo it blah blah blah. Thing is I am doing it all right as far as i know. I eat loads, havent lost any weight since he was born much as id like to (still 2 stone heavier than pre pg but just got to put up with it till he's weaned i guess), im drinking 4 or 5 pints at least a day. He feeds every hour and a half 2 hours still in the day for at least an hour at a time generally. I keep him on same breast for ages before swapping. I spend alot of time sitting down with him doing nothing due to his feeding despite house being sh*t tip. I feed him through night, I sleep with him after his first long sleep of the night and feed him whenever he wakes. Dont know what else I can do. Beginning to think I'm one of those 'very rare' people who really just don't have enough milk Think I might start a thread one night this week but not sure i've the energy tonight.
Sorry for long rant.
