Amulte Posted February 3, 2009 (edited) On behalf of my lady, myself and little J.Bob, id like to thank all of you for your love, light, support and well wishes with equal respect to those of you i know and those i have not had the pleasure of meeting yet. it helps to process this whole experience. My friends, sisters and brothers i love you all. Jimmy we will love you forever my little buddy! even if your covered in poo. WARNING!!!! photo contains blood. might upset the squemish. my favorite photo i caught, 4 seconds after his emergence.... just like his daddy with his big feet, large head and huge balls. wow this is insane. im over the moon!!! a perfect little dude!!! i just cant believe it, ive been walking round most of the arvo going "oh wow", "my goodness" and "(sigh)....shit..." in disbelieve, shock and awe. he is exactly 3kg's. exactly on the nose of 3000gm's. 50cm's long and cranium is 40cm round(large skull like his daddy). and again these are exact. there is no milimetres or points or anything. exact measurements. HE IS PERFECT! holy shit this fucking rules!!!!! its amazing...watching the surgery and his emergence was so..... beyond words. im still gathering my thoughts, been home hour and a half and im still piece things together. fucking wow.... ive got this wierd feeling that i cannot shake, that ill wake up tomorrow and this will have been my mind playing tricks on me. not a dream but me tripping balls virtually. this is surreal. EDIT - removed one pic as i got sick of seeing that persons face (not my baby) Edited February 9, 2009 by Amulte Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Amulte Posted February 5, 2009 hehe its all good ace. all very very good ;) seriously i love you all. she is coming along ok.... in quite a bit o pain today, went pale and shakey on me a few times. im a bit worried she may have ruptured or torn something internal as they gave her morphine (AGAINST MY WISHES!!!!!) and she had violent vomiting and dry heaving from it in conjunction with the GA after effects. they got more training, sure, but i know the girl and her reactions to things. and WTF?!?! the anesthesiologist is trying to tell me morphine is NOT ADDICTIVE!?!??!!?!?!?!??!?!!?!?!?!?!#!)^@(&%@#($%02817461203963-9 WTF!!!!!. that is the MOST MORONIC AND FUCKING RETARDED THING IVE EVER HEARD!!!!!!!!!!! we discussed it before this and it was put into the birth plan for her NOT to be given morphine! she was ment to be given Remifentalin. yes it has a sorter life in the system but its just a matter of changing the PCA dose control lockout timer to be shorter in duration. ill explain all this in a bit, sorry shit is so full on atm im having trouble keeping up. ill be able to explain things better when things cool down.

Amulte Posted February 6, 2009 ok things are looking better now. i explained the fuck up and "it all makes sense now" as to why shes not doing well. NOW things are looking better and she has been rehydrated but she is pushing herself as she desperatly wants to get home. For those who dont know PCA is Patient Controlled Analgesic. push a button for a dose, after a dose it locks you out of dosing for a few mins, then allows dose again. they filled hers with 180mg of morphine. they checkout out her internals and it appears torn but no bleeding. much love.
