Wow Juzzo Harlow makes Toby look full term. I hope he is doing well now for you. are you close to wellington - it must of been hard having to go forwards and back all the time for that long. We are only in Jville and that was enough. toby is ok with his feeding although he needs the odd top up. His main problem was his little lungs went pop!!

leeG thanks for the reply, yes it was placenta previa with a suspected accreta which is when the placenta starts knitting into the wall of the uturus. Good to hear how well you guys are doing.

Wellington Neonates rock they were so good to us and all the nurses are so friendly and helpful.

Shelly, I'm curious???? His lungs went pop???
I'm in Aotea, Papakowhai, and yes the drive in every day for that length of time was difficult with 3 other boys to look after but you do what you have to do right?

Yeap thats how the nurse described it. He had a hematoma on both lungs and went from Agar 9 at birth to a breathing tube for 5 days with chest drains on both sides.
I know Aotea well, we have friends who live out there. Its hard going when you have other kids, I know I felt very torn between them.

Awwww, poor wee guy, that must have been difficult, did you have any indication while you were pregnant that things weren't quite right or was it a bit of a shock?
