Oh Maria, I'm sorry that Isobelle and yourself are having such a hard time. Please don't worry about moaning, thats what we are here for honey. I'm sure that Isobelle is a real fighter and she will overcome her present difficulties.
Sending you lots of PMA.

hi
isobelle seemed much better yesterday and today i felt i needed to spend some quality time with the boys and elise. it's the first day i havent been in to NICU.
well this afternoon we recieved a phone call from the doctor to say that they have discovered she has a heart murmur and would like our permission to put her on Ibruprofen. they think this is the reason for her breathing problems and why she's not improving as fast as she should be. i'm going to phone the unit and ask for more info as i'm not sure how ibruprofen works in this situation.
Anyway just needed to talk.
Hope you are all well. xx

Hi maria, im sorry isobelle has had a set back and i hope the ibuprofen helps.

Please dont think your moaning you have to vent your emotions and I cant think of a better place than here. We all know how scary this is for you and are here anytime you need to talk. I hope you start to feel better soon.

I bet the kids had a lovely day with you, it must be so hard juggling seeing them and isobelle. Have they met their gorgous little sister yet?

Hi Maria,

Just wanted to send you my love. You are going through so much right now and I think you're doing an absolutely amazing job of coping with everything that's been thrown at you. It's hardly surprising PND has kicked in with everything you've been through. Are you on meds? I was on Sertraline when I had PND and it worked really wekk for me.

I hope Isobelle is doing ok today and you and the family are there for each other.

Much love, J x

thanks so much.
unfortunately the treatment didnt work so not sure now what will happen. her stomach is distended and shes quite pale. shes also back on CPAP again. i'ts such a roller coaster and is physically and mentally exhausting, but have to stay strong.
