hey ladies
what a day yday
i was at work and DD looking after Dawson, spoke to her about 9am - everything ok, then again at 12:30, when i reminded her that asides from my break times she'd need to call my ward if there was an emergency as my phone is off when in the ITU.Ha - theres not gonna be an emergency says she....
Well literally 5mins later, my mobile goes, i am still at lunch, and she is screaming down the phone, actually screaming and sobbing'oh mum tell mewhat to do aaaarrrrgghhhhhh' In the background Deej screaming too. OMG my heart was thumping i felt sick, trying to calm her down to tell me what had happened.
Dawson, crawled into the kitchen and tipped up the mop bucket; which Lou had just filled with really hot water and scalded himself. Luckily, her instinct had kicked in and the first thing she done was pick him up and put him inthe bath with the cold shower over him. My boss couldn't let me go grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
but daddy got him (he would have been quicker than me anyway)and took him to GP where they advised A&E, its not too bad thank god, 2 blistered bits and some redness but he wass so lucky not to have gotten his face or that Lou hadn't put bleach in the water or anything.
I was a wreck the rest of the day, could still cry thinking about the what ifs and thnking about how sore it looks; my poor little monkey. Just back from the hospital now where they redressed it, and we have an appt at the burns unit at the childrens hospital on Friday too.
Had to really bite my tongue to not go off on one with DD - it was an accident, could have happened to anyone I s'pose and she had been so distraught already,was still sobbing when her dad got home; but still lol, my poor wee baby, stupid big sis.
And stupid bloody daddy too - he texted me in the morning to ask how my day was, I said fine -was a bit slow as my patient was sedated and he replies 'oh didn't remember you were at work'!!!!!!'Dawson was crying this morning when I was about to leave for work but I thought you had him so I just left' BLOODY IDIOT!!!! I left an hour and a half before he did. I tell you, I need to quit working, for the safety of my boy!!! I was just receiving this stupid bloody text when Lou phoned too.
My daughter has learned a very good lesson about babies and how quick they can be and I am sure she'd never do anything so daft again - my sis is watching Deej from now regardless though; but Dave grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr, stupid man -he was supposedly keeping an eye on Dawson and left the stairgate open the day before. I was doing dishes, I came in lounge and said 'where is he??' got blank stares from DH and other sons, Dawson was up on the top landing (13 stairs up). Aaarrghhh!!!! These are the ppl I have to leave my baby with to go to work.
And all I get when I moan or complain or say how worried I am/ was is ' he's fine babe' ''could've been worse' or something equally as stupid and thoughtless.
Nat how exciting single figures to your hols yipee!!!!!!
Dawson not walking independantly yet -think it could be a while too lol, he walks around the furniture /walls etc but as soon as there is a gap he is down and crawling; he wont even attempt two steps and hates being left to stand without holding on - he screams and sits down straight away lol. I was hoping that he'd be walking by our holiday too, as his wee knees get all sore when he crawls wearing shorts. Maybe sore knees will encourage him to get up and walk lol
Hope everyone else is well, not long til Dyls first birthday Liz! Are you having a party or anything?
gonna go do some callenetics while monster napping -try and get rid of some flab b4 my hols lol haha its not shifting at all big jelly belly
take care all, kisses for babies xxxx
