July/August 07 Toddlers

Well I ended up getting an iron injection while I was at the Dr.  I have to have one every week for 4 weeks, then fortnightly for about a month, then will check the levels again.  It was only $3.70 for the iron injection pack, and will be $5 for the nurse to do it, so I thought that was affordable.  And it only hurt for 5 mins afterwards.  I hope I start feeling better soon.  I know I'm always tired, but know having 3 kids and a house contributes to it.  My levels were at 8, when minimum they should be 20, or up to 200.

 

Oh and the Dr had got the results back from Jett's egg allergy blood test, and it was moderate positive!  So he's definitely allergic to egg, and she will get him tested in 6 months time as they do tend to grow out of it. 

 

I got my mum to look after the kids while I was out so then she stayed for dinner as Dh is working out of town and staying overnight.  We had Spag Bol!!!  Haha, I normally cook it if Dh isn't eating with us, as he doesn't normally like it, and I do, plus its quick and easy to cook!  Jett loves it too.

 

Hi Melln!  Nice to have you pop in.  Hows you and Bree?

 

Mel sounds like your trip was enjoyable, despite the sad occasion.  I'm sure your grandad would've been very happy with his send off, it sounds like it was perfect.

hi mellin
hows bree?

hi mel glad the trip was ok & the plane & everything

yes christmas is sneeking up so dam fast!!
and as our pay day falls on a thursday we dont get pait untill the following week!!!! GUTTEDDDDD

so is anyone going away for xmas or new year??
i have no idea what we are doing

hi shell
nikki

jessica i hope lachie gets better soon hope you dont catch it!!

hi italiah, where do you get the iron injection packs from??
my doc said shes suprised i can even get out of bed with how low my levels are but shes never said anything about a iron injection

GOod luck with Bella's bloods Shell. I am sure she will be ok but it would be good for her to know if shes a carrier.  I guess there is a pretty high chance she is a carrier.

 

I have just stopped my iron tablets as I cant stand what they are doing to my bowels.  One day I'm constipated and the next runny as.  Its awful and it hurts too much to do them (pelvic floor is weak and sore).  I have had the injections once before and I would prefer them too.  Will see how I go after the birth.  I might ask for an iron test while I am in hospital incase I need another transfusion.

Hey guys. We are good! I've been a tad distracted these last few weeks aye, so i havent been on much. Briahna is still her same old self lol. Starting to talk more and show off alot, she loves to dance for people.

Ive actually been seeing someone which is totally weird!

Have been spending all my time at the beach and stuff so its been fun, loving the nice weather! And ive fully fallen in love with the Mount! Its awesome!

 

Right now bree, my friend and I are stuck in Auckland till payday (tomorrow). We came at the last minute on sat for a party.

Then im back up again for christmas! Grr! I hate the trip from tga to aucks!

 

Hope everyone is well. Sorry i havnt really had much time to read all your posts, but i will try at some point!!

 

Yay!  School's out for summer!!  haha.

 

Wow Cat your mum's house is awesome!  Hope it sells.  Where will she move to?  Love the pool - I would love a pool!  grrr about the evil aunt though.

 

Melln, sounds like things are going great with you.  Must be nice for you to have a man back in your life!

Glad Bella was ok getting bloods Shell. 

 

I'm feeling ok.  I think due to AF arriving, and my tiredness, things get on top of me sometimes.

Yay!  That's great Cat - and for a good price too! 

Hello Justme!!  Wow it's been like........ forever!!!  So nice of you to say hi, how are you and Ethan doing?!?!?

Bella had a wee boo-boo last night. We bought a fireguard to protect her from the fire in the lounge, just put it in the lounge, but it still wasn't fixed to the wall (but its pretty damned heavy) Anyway, little miss determined thought it was fun to try and hang off it, which of course we told her 'no' several times. Just when I'm home alone and turn my back for a split second, she tries it again, only this time she manages to pull the whole thing down on herself and it landed with a crash right on her 4 little fingers on her left hand.

As you can imagine, she was pretty upset, but seemed to settle after lots of cuddles and slept fine through the night. However, said finger was still sore and swollen this morning, so we took her to the after hours and low and behold she has fractured one of her fingers!! Only a small crack, but still...I get the feeling Bella is going to be the kind of child that is going to have lots of injuries because her determination and inquisitiveness get her into trouble!!

She is fine, she just has to have the finger strapped and will see the orthopedic guys soon to double check its OK.

Drama over for now and she is sleeping!

hi justme!! good to hear you 2 are ok

where is everyone hiding

kandice hope everythings ok with you

lol italiah yes jett climbs onto the table, usually he will drag the beanbag over or sarahs little chair to help him get up but . . he also climbs onto the dining room chairs and onto the dining room table and thinks its funny to sit in the middle of it.
