I'm so sad to hear about all the angel babies. I know if something like that would happen to me I would completely lose my shit, i'm pretty sure I would never recover. The strength of the people it happens to oh my heart goes out to them. Eva had the cord wrapped abound her neck and het shoulders and her arm and the nurse couldnt unhook it so they cut it without clamping it or anything and blood just went squirting out the ends. I often think how close I came to losing Eva and I just can't even deal with that idea.
I'm also sorry to hear that some of you have such terrible care. I had 2 nights in hospital and nearly 3 whole days and my care was great. I called a nurse with every feed to check my latch and they were more than happy to help. They came around every few hours asking if I need meds for pain. When I said the pain is fine but I'm nauseous they gave me an injection. I didn't want to leave. LOL
AFM - , i'm so sick it's terrible!!!! I just have the flu but I feel like death. Thankfully its as if Eva can tell so has been such an angel!!!! She wakes up and has a feed then plays on her own for an hour then I put het in bed and her eyes are closed and shes sucking her thumb straight away, no fighting, no sooking! Then she sleeps for an hour and we repeat the whole process. I'm so sick and hubby won't take time off work to care for me or Eva so I dont know what i'd do if Eva wasn't co-operating
woo hoo! offer on the house was accepted
Kayley...you wanna try being stuck in for 2 months looking at a baby covered in machines every day...those days dragggggggggggggg
Glad you got it sorted Gemma.

Congratulations on the house Manda
I am still in denial one minute I am happy, then the next I am shitting myself wondering how I will cope...the whole thing with hubby's dad coming home thursday is just getting me right down in the dumps too.
I would love to attempt a VBAC...but not sure they will support me in doing so, I have had 2 sections now...and with this one due just a year after Amber it may be too close for it to be safe...I am going to ask my consultant in the morning, she may surprise me, no harm in asking I guess.
Gemma you might change your mind when Libby is a bit older
