...katie...????????????????????

[Emerald87]

I'm in the outback. My hands have broken out in a severe rash from the water. In counting the hours until I get on the plane tomorrow night. Why we had to fly out at night I don't know

 

[Emerald87]

The red dirt and shrubs you see on TV... I'm living it.

 

[..katie..]

oh dear god that's awful O_O

 

[ashiozz]

0.o well at least we know you havent been eaten by a kangaroo, is the rash an alergic reaction.. ? you're not dying right?

 

[Emerald87]

Lol! Seems like an allergy rash. I was blaming the water but my FIL pointed out that I did pet some birds a couple of days so. But since I haven't touched them since then I'm doubting it was the birds. Hope they haven't diseased me :-/

 

[gigglebox]

ugh i wouldn't wish itchy on anyone. sorry about your rash.

do you get mosquitos there? is that a stupid question? did we already have this conversation?

did i tell you all that hubs has skeeter syndrome and yes, that's a real thing?

 

[ashiozz]

skeeter syndrome? Oh Dr. Google answered that question for me. Wow.

You're probably fine, I guess it could be something in the water, I hope it does go away. Can you use benadryl cream?

 

[Emerald87]

Lol nope haven't had that conversation before - we have shit loads of mosquitoes. They kept me in a job before medicine lol. Although I only researched one batch of Australian blood, most was from Myanmar and other Asian countries.
Skeeter syndrome? That would be awful!!! It's bad enough when you gave a regular reaction to bites. What does he use for relief? 1% hydrocortisone cream would be helpful for speeding up relief.
My hands should recover when I get home very late tonight and take a shower. I'll put some topical cream on tonight. If it gets into my system it'll just mature Kaida's lungs

 

[ashiozz]

I realized, youre like 2.5 weeks from third tri! how does it feel!?

 

[Emerald87]

Really? 2ish weeks? Cool!! I've lost track of time. I'm just living day by day trying not to get eaten by kangaroos or murdered by serial killers (the first Australian serial killers came from SA and I can see why - nothing to do and lots of red dirt to bury bodies).
9 days until double digits. That excites me too.
My PTL fears have reduced and moved onto fetal movement worries. She's quiet cuz she's having her 24-28 week growth spurt and sleeping heaps. *sigh* there's always something... lol

 

[Emerald87]

Oh and now she's decided she'll only do big kicks for daddy yet before she wouldn't move when he came near.
Women!!

 

[ashiozz]

aww shes already a daddy's girl =).. yeah, third tri draws near 0.o we've known you forevvvver now. I hope you have a safe trip home =) im sure shes just sleeping tns so try not to worry too bad =)

 

[Emerald87]

I attacked her with the doppler yesterday and she kicked the crap out of it. If I wasn't holding it she would have sent the machine across the room!

 

[Emerald87]

6 hours until the flight

 

[ashiozz]

LOL i used to put stuff on my tummy to watch ty kick it away.... thoooosse were the days

 

[Emerald87]

She's not quite big enough to do that on a regular basis yet.

How's Sarah?

 

[ashiozz]

lizzie is 4lbs 12 oz working on feeding and close to coming home i believe =)

 

[Emerald87]

[Emerald87]
