OUCH THAT HURTS :-(

Man im a silly billy.
we had Brock for the weekend (he sooooo loves his Nana:-) ) as Jillian was a bridesmaid in a wedding so we went to wellington with him.
He was so good on the way down, then it went to crap on saturday nite.
It was so hot and we had trouble settling him we tried everything, luke warm wash, windows open, only nappies on, Neil driving him round the city in the wee small hours. He finally fell asleep about 1am only to wake at 3am for a feed and proceeded to crap EVERYWHERE.
Man when he power craps HE power craps ive never seen a baby poo so much.

We ended up with a wet bed (not my side lol) so it was a long nite.

We then went to visit a friend of neils who wanted to see Brock and thats when me day went down the shitter.

I only had to go and trip on there drive way and when i fell (thank god Neil had Brock) i heard a very loud crack in me ankle.
Oh shit it was painfull Neil hurrys to get me up man i was worried i had broke me ankle it was already starting to swell.
Neil wantrs to take me to the hospital and the thought of waiting for 6-8 hrs in A&E with a grumpy baby didnt sit well and anyway i needed to get back to palmy as Lyn (me mother in law) and i were going to watch ITS IN THE BAG so i just told him Im ok (big fat liar)
so i hobble inside his friends house and they put some ice on me ankle which was starting to hurt like bugger and i just grin and bear it.

when we got back to Palmy i hobble all the way into the Regent to watch the show and then hobble back out by now its friggin hurting like you wouldnt believe.
When we get home Neil makes me sit down and rings the neighbour (hes a dr) he thinks i just sprained it so put it up and pack ice on it so Neils does as he is told then cooks me tea.
(by now im serously worried as Neil never does anything to help me NEVER).

so today i get up at 2am and head very slowly to work man im not looking forward to that im having trouble walking and i got to work to 3pm so im a bit worried.

Neil pops in to see how im going and redoes me bandage and sugests i go see the doc.
so me mother in law comes in and works for me and i go see the doc.

I had some xrays and bugger me if i aint got a piece of metal stuck in me leg.
Now i gotta see that so i hobble round to the computer and take a squiz and sure enough there a bit a metal in me leg its been there a while by the looks of it.
Seems when i had surgery on me legs 4 yrs ago he left something behind.
I didnt even know it was there it doesnt even hurt so i think i will leave it there cause if i remember rightly when i had that surgery it took me 3months before i could walk properly again so i aint gonna go upset anything now am i.

So i have just badly sprained me ankle (thank god) and i gotta go to pyhsio and i got me some good drugs so im happy (while the drugs work )

i have taken some lovely photos of Brock and when i figure out how to put them on me blog i will do so for you all to see how bueatiful me wee grandson is.

IM A BAD NANA

Yip yea read it right.
On my first offical visit to visit my brand new grandson and what does Nana do She forgets the goddam CAMERA.

So out comes my phone and i got 2 photos of my dad holding Brock just as well his parents remembered there camera so i am gonna make sure that i take the camera tomorrow causes hes just so cute he looks just like his dad when he was born.

Geoffreys doing a good job he was up at 3am this morning doing the VACUMING that kid has never vacumed but give the guy a kid and all of a sudden he becomes domiscated, so now to get him to do the washing,dishes,dusting,making the beds,ironing,cleaning the toilets,and just making sure everything is clean then Jillian could have a break thet would be wishfull thinking eh
Hes changed his first shitty nappie and yip he ran for the nurse it was so funny lets hope he doesnt forget how to change them lol
Well we going out tonight i need a bit of destressing

HES HERE

At 4.21pm Brock John Crawley was born.
weighin in at 8lb 14 oz.
He was born with the cord around his neck and was blue Geoffrey ran me and it sounded like world war 3 going on, there were people screaming Geoffrey was crying and i couldnt make out what was going on all i got was hes blue mum get here fast
SO 125km hr and it takes me 5 mins to get there.
I was rushed into the delivery suite where there were more docs than nurses and Brocks was completly white i thout he was dead it gave me a hell of a fright geoffreys a mess Jillians a mess her mums crying and so am i.
I take over the oxygen that is being blownin into brocks face and geoffreys goes to Jillian to help her get the placenta out what a good dam nightmare.
The peadritrican doesnt like his color so they wisk him away thats just what they did to me when geoffrey was born his heart stoped so it was whoa i dont like this to firmular for me liking.
Geoffrey went with brock and i stayed with Jilllian then she asked if i could check on brock so i was taken to neonates
His color was better and they were putting drips into his tiny little hand, the poor little mite hes so tiny his head is bruised like you wouldnt believe so thy give him panadol cause hes got a little headache.

At 6pm i went and saw dad he started crying and wanted to go up hospital so i had to tell him the prob with brock and he goes and has a goddam asthma attack on me man i dont need anymore dramas so we get him on the nebuliser and now hes ok

well TRY and get some photos for you all to see my lovely little man

GIVE HER THE DRUGS

MEN you gotta hate them sometimes.

Geoffrey just rang and after 36 hrs of no sleep Jillians a bit buggered NO SHIT SHERLOCK shes in the throws of full on child birth and bugger me if hes moaning about the fact that she wants DRUGS. Shes screaming no FRIGGEN wonder, shes trying to get a 9lb baby out and it FRIGGEN hurts.

Man im gonna give that boy of mine a stern telling off when this is finallly over.
The poor woman has been at it for 7hrs and is now only 3cm dialated its gonna be a long day I wish there was something i could do but there aint so i just gotta wait so im gonna read me book.

Ive just had a heated discussion with Neil and he reckons us woman are wimps he reckons he could handle it HES a BIG STRONG MAN and can handle more than us mere woman (sexist pig)

So i informed him that i would drag his balls up thru his mouth and see how long inbetween screams before he demands the drugs.

Hes now out side drinking his diet coke contemplating his future without his balls lol

WELL ITS STILL HAPPENING

well that little bugger is in no hurry to get out and into this world i can tell ya.

waters broke last night pain started then stopped then started then stopped then no one gets any sleep and this morning 1cm dialated and the little bugger has gone and plugged up the tear in his sac so his little head is dry and his bum is wet so Jillian is now being induced so watch this space eh

WELL ITS HAPPENING

After 9 gruelling months im about to be a NANA shit im a bit scared i never been a nana before so i hope im gonna be a good one.

Ive rung my dad and told him his Great grandson is on his way so hes excited but now im a bit worried bout the next phase in me life i never been an orphan before either :-(

will keep u all updated on the progress

WELL HES BACK IN HOSPITAL :-(

I got a fone call this morning at 5.30 from my sister Erica dad was taken to hospital at 3am my brother and her thout they would let me sleep as dad has had me running around for him over the last few days and they both new i wasnt coping.

So up i went at 8.30 he was having heart trouble and his breathing wasnt the best, his ankles are now swelling so his kidneys are failing again he keeps bugging me bout Brock wants to see him before he goes.

The specialist Dr Holst (Yip thats right Alisons daughter) shes really nice and concerned bout dad she thinks that maybe we look at putting dad into a hospital wing in a rest home as he needs more care than the home can give him he was concerned about where we are going to put him as he really likes the home that hes in so he said he would only go into Combrae in feilding so we have to have family meeting and see his social worker that is if he survives this episode.

well the rain has stopped and the sun is now shining so i better go and do the dishes
