How is she today Emma? They look like they've grown a heap in length so perhaps they'll chub out again soon? They are 6 weeks older than Elle but I think they are bigger than her. From an outside POV they definately look like they are growing and thriving. Poor wee Sienna though :( She was well enough to steal Elle's sandwiches yesterday and was chatting away beautifully so those are both good signs. Hope she is better today.]]> Sun, 22 Jul 2007 15:39:09 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9322&PID=184463&title=shes-just-not-right#184463 <![CDATA[She’s just not ’right’ : Well hopefully sloppy nappies...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9322&PID=184289&title=shes-just-not-right#184289 Author: busymum

Ugh, let it be said I saw this one coming! She has a tummy bug, a nasty one. 6 dirty nappies today, all completely liquid and her poor wee but is absolutely red raw. My big worry now is that she's not taking any formula, and won't drink the water or the pedialyte, so have my fingers crossed I can get some into her overnight so she doesn't get dehydrated. Hard to know if it is the same virus she's had lingering for weeks or a new one, but Maya and Mercedes are both fine and given that the gremlins share spoons, cups, toys etc. I'd think if it was a gastro bug they'd both have it.]]> Sat, 21 Jul 2007 19:26:53 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9322&PID=184205&title=shes-just-not-right#184205 <![CDATA[She’s just not ’right’ : I agree with everyone else as...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9322&PID=184130&title=shes-just-not-right#184130 Author: hailstones

they are getting a lot more active and i think they look healthy at moment but have suddenly got taller and thinned down....
but dont ignore that nagging feeling...why dont you just romp up to a plunket without an appt and play the paranoid mummy and see if someone will give you some ideas??? if not go see the doc? are they stilll seeing a paed??? make an appt - think you still have your sthn cross so use it!

Hi Emma I was going to suggest Monday too, looks like you're a step ahead of me! As for the weight, it is supposed to drop off a little bit around their age, especially if they are starting to move around. Get them measured and weighed and check whether they are holding proportion on their charts.]]> Fri, 20 Jul 2007 22:38:09 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9322&PID=183912&title=shes-just-not-right#183912 <![CDATA[She’s just not ’right’ : oh emma! as the other ladies...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9322&PID=183879&title=shes-just-not-right#183879 Author: jack_&_charli

at our plunket you can go and weigh your baby any time. Will give you an idea whether they have put on weigh or not.
BTW - I did think from the photos of your latest trip that the gremlins had lost some of their baby chubbyness... just didn't say it incase it sounded rude...

Trust yourself, as their mother you know best. Also I am a great believer in trusting your gut instinct.. go with it.]]> Fri, 20 Jul 2007 20:50:08 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9322&PID=183834&title=shes-just-not-right#183834 <![CDATA[She’s just not ’right’ : Definitely get her checked again...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=9322&PID=183832&title=shes-just-not-right#183832 Author: katie1

Definitely get her checked again on Monday and if you really don't think she is good over the weekend you can always go back to the after hours place again.
Hope she feels better soon.

They saw Plunket at 8 mths, I have to double check but I think their next visit isn't till 10 mths. I do know we get extra ones with them being twins.
I think I'll take her to the GP on Monday and just get her checked over again, and they have a baby scales there so can weigh them both too.

Emma, never ignore the niggly feeling! I am one hundred percent supportive of 'the feeling' that tells you that things aren't right. Hope poor Sienna is feeling better soon...

PS re the weight, gremlins must be due a plunket visit soon, surely they could tell you?

My poor wee Sienna just isn't herself, She's had a nasty cough for three weeks now and while it's not getting any worse, it's not getting any better either. Last week she had a high temp then two days later broke out in a viral rash, today she threw up all over the place, enough to soak thru three layers of clothes. And she's grouchy and waking during the night and screaming for one hour + so I am exhausted.
She's seen the GP once, the after hours doc twice, had a catheter urine done at Starship to rule out the kidney being an issue and had the ambulance out once to check her breathing.
As I said, she's not getting any worse, and she's certainly not drastically ill enough to warrant another trip to the after hours doc but I have this niggling feeling that there's something not right and it's making me uneasy.
I don't *think* I'm being overanxious, as Willie and Kellz both agreed that she isn't 100% but the question is what do I do?

ETA: I also have this nagging worry that both of the gremlins aren't gaining weight like they should be, they seem to have thinned down a lot and gotten longer, they're still only eating the equivalent of 1/2 can each at most meals and their formula intake barely hits 450ml a day
