Was that your last pregnancy or did you go on to have another one after that? There’s is a 10% chance of it happening again the next time, I think those are good odds considering how quickly she was seen to this time round, they will be even more prepared for it second time around and if it’s a 1/10 chance it doesn’t really scare me that much. Pints surely? 2.5 litres is half her blood. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was my last pregnancy. The chance of another retained placenta was too High a risk, I’d lost most of my blood and they were about to give me a full hysterectomy. Thankfully the balloon cathater worked but was kept in recovery for ages as any hint bleeding I’d have been in and everything out. My last mementoes before being knocked out was the registrar being told consultant was in building, they medics were in complete panic. She was my third and there was no way I’d risk it again and I went and got sterilised. My GP’s totally agreed. Had to fight with the doctor as I was single (I’d left husband by then) at time and he clearly hadn’t read my medical file other than the summary of hospital admits which were mental health stuff. Why did single woman want sterilised......cause we still shag!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gnash Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 On 2/24/2018 at 22:46, Gnash said: I was changing my 18 month old's nappy this morning and suddenly felt a warm moist feeling on my face and body (I was topless). In the next 2 seconds or so I tried to decipher this unexpected situation, before my conscious mind realised the only rational explanation was that my beloved son had projectile shat on me. After spending some considerable time cleaning myself and the carpet, I looked at the lad in quiet wonder that he managed to aim at, and successfully hit, my face with his faeces at a distance of about 2 feet and an upwards angle of about 45 degrees. Turns out this was due to a flare up of his cow's milk protein intolerance. Two weeks of vomiting every night and diahorrea through the day ain't pretty, but now he's been off the dairy for a few days it has calmed down. It's a bugger because oat milk costs way more then cow's milk. He'll be fine once he's used the oat milk as he'll never remember anything else. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She's fine but has a third degree tear. Googled it and wished I hadn't, sounds fucking horrendous. I've had an anal fissure before which was the worst thing I've experienced, but this sounds worse. Any P+Bers had a third degree tear? My wife had one for our first child, but she was stitched up (in a good way) and after a few weeks was ok. Had a caesarean for number 2 though, to avoid the risk of rupturing at the same spot again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you I had a brief agency job collecting severed limbs and various bits and pieces from surgery and bunging them in an incinerator. I think @Jimmy85 would enjoy that. Only found out when one of the bags split open. Edited March 4, 2018 by welshbairn 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jacksgranda Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 Youngest granddaughter baptised yesterday. It was the same minister that did her elder sister, 8 years ago, he must be well into his 80s, certainly made me wonder where the time has gone. That's the first time I've been in that church since then. Back to step daughters for food and a chat, then home (via Tesco, for some unknown reason.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had a strange occurrence with our two's baptisms. The same priest baptised my two sons. He was new to the parish and baptising my eldest was his first action at the church, then he was heading back out to take up some position in Rome when it came to baptising my youngest which turned out to be his last action at the church. My eldest is 5 this week. Everyone always said your kids will grow up fast, but I am genuinely shocked how true that is. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
