It seems a big expense and hard as f**k to know what to buy when you can't go into a shop and see them/talk to someone. We got an iCandy pushchair, pricey but well worth it, still using it with our son 6 years after we bought it for our first kid. Never had a problem with it, actually miss pushing it around as son has almost grown out of it now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erih Shtrep Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 (edited) Feeling a wee bit numb tonight. I'd posted on here previously in 2015, 2018 when me and Mrs Williamson lost babies in the 2nd and 3rd trimesters. In 2021 I've a 8 year old boy and a 2 year old boy who was born with possible health concerns due to an ecogenic kidney and another one that just didn't form (PKD). He's been doing great post birth but they wanted us to go a genetics test which has confirmed he has a HF1 beta genetic issue and will develop Type 1 diabetes and will need kidney dialysis by the time he reaches puberty. It's a parental thing and has been tracked back to me. I don't have any health issues and I'm struggling to take it all in. Dunno if anyone can speak about this on here.

Aufc Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Well i was coming on to have a moan about how this lockdownMight send me over the edge with my kids. However, it all seems very tame when you read the above message. Bit of perspective 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry to hear this Erih, with our situation, my daughter in law and wife are in HIE Facebook groups. I’d be surprised if there isn’t groups that might help in your situation also.

Erih Shtrep Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Thanks folks. That's the baths done before the 'Night Garden' Mrs W started signing to my youngest 'Oh ye canny splash yer mammy in the bath....Oh ye canny splash yer mammy in the bath....Oh ye canny splash yer mammy' unable to finish the last time I called up the stairs 'Coz you came out her fanny'. She gave me the usual *Grow up Grahame* eyes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torpar Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 According to The Wonder Weeks app our daughter has either 1 or 2 days left of her Leap 4 fussy stage (my wife and I downloaded the app separately, entered the same due date but her app says 1 day mine 2 days) I read that when the fussy stage ends it's like a light switch and she will go back to being a happy little baby that likes to sleep. Fingers crossed that is the case. Also wondering about other people's exclusively breastfeed babies, I kept reading at some stage they only poop once or twice a week, this seemed to be the case for maybe 2/3 weeks, Isla now poops 4-5 times a day. I don't mind cleaning her up at all, she is in cloth nappies though which require pre soaking before washing, I know in the long run it's saving us money and helping the environment, but heading down to our buildings laundry room every second or third day is brutal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't remember what my first 2 were like, but the youngest was the same as yours with dirty nappies while exclusively breastfed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falcor Roar Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 My first child, baby Hamish was born on Wednesday the 27th of January weighing 6lb 10oz. Mum is doing a great job while I've moved our stuff to the new house in Angus.
