The Happy Thread

Ah, okay
There would definitely be something wrong with her if she preferred cat food over homemade cooking

I'am so happy today, my DGS nearly two went home last night after 5 weeks with Nanee, His mother arrived home yesterday lunchtime we went to the airport to meet her.  I love him to bits but it was a lot of work for this old lady. Now I'm packing the caravan and heading off for a break....

Brenda I can understand that one completely. 5weeks is a very long time. Bet he was happy to see his mum too

Hi Dede, at first he pulled back and pushed her away, but after 10 seconds he realized who it was, I was walking free.   He was being a real monster at the airport, anyone who saw him would have thought he was a real little s--t.  and he was.  normally he is quiet good.LOL

5 weeks, goodness me you are a super grandma Brenda    Was he calling you Mummy?

I'm concerned that I could have my 2 year old nephew for several weeks if my sister has her baby early. I'm nominated as no.1 to take care of him. It will turn my life upside down. But I would do anything for my sister.
She had a scan yesterday and everything not looking so positive. She's 26 weeks. She needs to keep bub there for hopefully several weeks yet. Any sign of early labor and they will send her away to another hospital as they can't cope with babies born before 30 weeks here in Launceston. Last time she went to Adelaide for 5 weeks. Fingers crossed that doesn't happen this time. The doctors have started her on shots of steroids to strengthen the babies lungs just in case

Dede. fingers (and everything else!) crossed for you and your sister!!  she's very lucky to have so much support from you . . . do hope everything goes well - for you both!

Thanks GF, we can only take one week at a time now. At 26 weeks the baby has around a 80% chance of survival, she weighs around 1.1kg which is pretty good considering my nephew was born at 30 weeks weighing 1.5kg. The bigger she is the better too.

I'm sending lots of good luck wishes your sister's way Mandi

I'm very happy that we're getting rid of my brother today!! Yipppeee, I will have the bathroom to myself again, no more dried milk dregs in cups, no more smell wafting out from under the spare room door...

[astarra]

Bet you'll miss him soon Amy! 

Mandi - I sure hope everything goes well for your sister, I think about her so often.    Please keep us updated. Sorry to hear everything not so good. Thinking of you and her.
