Hello everyone....what have I missed

[Samsgirl]

Hello ladies...

I am alive....albeit' just' i have to admit...

I have had possibly the worst and best 2 weeks of my life.....

I am still poorly but you will all be pleased to hear that Hannah aka Boo Boo is doing really well...she is feeding well from me and is putting weight on She is such a hungry little monster with being on a constant drip feed of high cal formula in special care, so i have to top her up with either expressed breastmilk or forumla after she has had a good do on me!

The doctors etc have all told me how amazing it is that i am even producing milk following the amount of blood loss.....I wont bore you all with the gruesome details but needless to say everything that could have gone wrong for me, did and it will take me a very long time to get over the trauma......it doesnt help that i am still in pain and me episiotomy wont heal because of my strep B and my piles are huge...see what i mean? ha!

anyway...I just wanted to thank you all for your support and your amazing messages and care shown. I did read them all when in hospital and they helped me hugely and i love you all!!!

SO come on....what have I missed...how is everyone doing?

I hope you are all okay ... xxxx

Nothing exciting going on in my world apart from the fact that I've finished work and this weekend have finally started on the nursery

So glad to hear you're on the road to recovery xx

great news with Hannah and you'll be back on your feet soon enough. Just make sure you rest lots and take all the help offered hun even when you start to feel better.

Just the usual madness here, snatching defeat from the jaws of victory and waiting to start my eviction campaign at 37 weeks lol xxxxxxxx

you havent missed much hun, couple of current labour watches, poor carly may have to reach in and drag henry out by the look of it shes made him so comfy, there are a couple of poor feb mummies waiting for their lazy babies to get a wriggle on. were all in awe of how well you have handled your labour and subsequent hospital stay, your a star and its amazing to see how positive you still are about it

 

[beckyboo1]

Yes it's the best. Just mice knowing when you have a rubbish nights sleep you can have a nap during the day. And weekends ESP Sunday's seems nicer knowing there isn't a Monday morning!!

Glad your a little better and Hannah is well! Hope you completely recover soon and get plenty of rest! good to see you back! You say you took epo, was it just the oil you used or capsules? I'm taking capsules but no rlt and bouncing on my ball but maybe not as much as I should, it's very painful! Take as much advice as poss to get her out! X

Hay honey so pleased you are back. Well done we are all in total awe of you are how well you have coped with everything. You should be so proud of yourself. Boo Boo is definitely a little princess and has daddy wrapped round her finger I'm sure. Your back for the exciting times lots of labour threads I predict are on their way. lol. x

Mine where like that too! My OH still laughs about it now and I keep trying to explain that things should have moved slowly & gently in those early stages! I could sit or lay down, I was actually stood up for 36hours until they admitted me to hospital
