PAL Summer 2011 Babies - From 1st tri to MC and back again in one go.

[Aaisrie]

Just to update you all as Kelly was able to come on and post today:

Evan Alexander
Born 20th May 2011 by Emergancy crash c-section following complete placental abrubtion at 5.04pm
4lbs 6oz of pure perfection

I felt one tiny pain and a gush of blood, it all happened so quick, no warning signs at all. The consultant delivered him in 4 minutes but he was starved of oxygen, it took 20 minutes to get his heart beating. He was transferred for specialist care the following morning but it isn't good news. He is badly brain damaged and making no attemps to breath for himself.

He's being taken out of sedation today so his brain can be assesed but so far he isn't moving at all, not responding to any stimuli or breathing on his own.

I don't know what to say, i'm still in shock, my baby boy isn't going to survive. I don't know how long i have with him but it will be days, no longer. I've held him and changed his nappies, hes the most beautiful boy i've ever seen, looks like his sister.

I am beyond devastated but trying to hold it together so i remember the time i did get with him.

I want to thank everyone for their thoughts and prayers, it means a lot to know he's in everyones minds. Thankyou for the candles, i've seen them all and it was a lovely idea.

I am staying in hospital with Evan but i will try to put his picture on before i go back, he's beautiful. I will update when i can, thankyou everyone for your support and i hope everyone is doing well xx

Emma I've been having regular BH for the last week but they tail off after a few hrs but I've been at that point where I'm like "Is this it?"

We haven't been updated on Evan, I heard that Kel got to cuddle him last night but I don't know if that's a "there's nothing else we can do" type cuddle or what..... We all lit candles for them last night as a sign of unity.

Yeah! Mine started hurting this week. I don't know how much to blame on spd though. Mw said he was very very low a month ago so I guess my pelvis might be giving up!

Xxx for your friend

Hi everyone,
Just a quick update...

Summer's nursery is coming along nicely, although i have pulled my back out putting some curtains up yesterday and now walk like John Wayne! Her cot's are due to arrive either at the end of this week or the beginning of next. Once it's finished i will take pics and post them on here.
I have been feeling a bit emotional lately .... On Sat morning i was convinced she hadn't moved in her regular patterns and so Jimmy talked to her and she kicked him in the head as usual and then all of a sudden i was crying because i couldn't bear to not bring her home now.
I also have no energy and am shattered most of the time so i don't think that helped much!
My BH have eased off a bit too, now i only get them every so often for a short time.
I have my check-up with the Midwife tomorrow so i can't wait to hear Baby Griff's heartbeat. Sometimes i wish i had a doppler but i don't think i could be disciplined enough not to freak out and use it all the time so mostly i am glad i don't have one!

Jimmy and i are off to Chester Zoo on friday so that should be good fun.

Hope everyone else is ok. Xx

Sorry you are feeling bad I hope you have a nice time at the zoo!

Thanks Emmea, i'm feeling much better now!

My boob is leaking today .... it feels weird!!

 

[Aaisrie]

Caroline wait until your milk comes through [about day 3 or 4 pp] and it RUNS out... it freaked me out the first time it happened LOL

 

[heva510]

morning all just back from midwife baby on bigger side head 3/5 engaged yay just want next 4 wks + to hurry up hope everyone ok x

 

[LittleGriffin]

I just got back from the Midwife and i am a little anemic so that explains why i have been feeling poop, i have been given iron tablets to take twice a day.

Baby Griff is head up but the midwife says as long as she is head down by 36 weeks then thats fine.

I'm off for a sleep now .....Zzzzzzzzz

Hugs to everyone!!

Sequeena that looks lovely although I just wanna grab your change mat and turn it round with the head end to the left HAHAHA

 

[sequeena]

Nooo!! It needs to stay that way, I'm left handed

 

[Aaisrie]

Ooooo interesting!! You'd have been burned for that hundreds of yrs ago!! But see how observant I am to notice that!!!

 

[sequeena]

...Thanks Eve

 

[Aaisrie]

LOL glad I could put a smile on your face!! My cousin is left handed and I used to be ambidextrous even being able to write with both hands although since I've left school I've used my right hand more and so have lost some of it
