Thread: My pregnant wife

Waldo,

I was not allowed to be present during the birth of our first (CS) and I still think it was one of the worst times of my life. Please don't let work keep you away.

Dan

Chris, get in there if you can. Seeing my child born was the greatest thrill I've ever had. However, having said that, the health of the baby and your wife are the most important things.

She's in the right place and she has lots of support.

I hope it all works out for you.

G'day DanP,

As soon as I've done enough that I can finish the rest in the early hours of the morning I'm packing up here and jumping in the car - could be 2 hours off that yet. I'm racing don't worry.

The last thing I want to do is miss the little fella saying hello and to hold him/her before going into the humi crib.

Waldo
Hang in mate. The whole board is behind you.
Sorry I am too far away to help.
Dave..

It's just hard juggling a business with deadlines etc., but working for myself it means there's no such thing as 9-5 (sometimes it's a 24 hour plus day), it's just now a wait and see what the specialist says.

Ahh - can't tell the boss to get stuffed eh? That makes it a bit harder. Do you have any friends that could assist in the donkey work? I guess you would have already thought of that.

G'day Gumby,

That's what I'm hoping to be there for, see how it goes.

TassieKiwi, thanks. What I'm doing right now is pure design so it's not something I can pass on too easily. Just hoping I have enough ink for the printer.

Waldo

I jsut came across this thread. Sorry to hear about your situation mate. With a baby on the way I can relate.

Hope it all works out.

Trav

Your getting there.
every days a winner.
Tell her she has a lot of fans out here.

Really hoping it works out for you guys there.

And jam the work. I'd walk out on my work here instantly if family asked it of me. No hesitation whatsoever.

If the clients can't understand that, then I'd be inclined to think yer prolly better off without people like that.


On the cooking, if you need some ideas for cooking your own grub, give a shout. I'm sure we can come up with something.

Says I with a sirloin steak (from you know where) in the fridge for tomorrow night's dinner.

Good luck mate, sounds like you need it more than we do here.

Waldo our hopes prayers and good wishes are with you.... and the boss lady and ur whole family hope today is a better day for u all jules

Again, all the best to you Waldo and Kylie.
The whole situation must suck, however it seems that you are in good hands and each day brings you a little closer to a new little member of your family.
Hope that you can stay supportive and strong for Kylie, and tell Kylie that there is a whole heap of well wishers that are cheering for her.
Can't offer any help with the design work - however if you need a lawn mowed or if you feel like a bleat session over a coffee - give me a yell.

Go you good thing.

Keep the chin up Chris, thinking of you all.


Regards..............Sean

G'day,

Kylie is much better today. Last night was a killer for her with the bed set up the way it was which resulted in a lot of presure on her chest etc. meaning she had no sleep. Today she consulted with the medicos and they've put her bed to a much better incline which will mean the pressure is back on her cervix and bub could come sooner - but the torture of the pain reduced on her chest.

No bub yet but that is good in ways. Survival rate is now 91% against 58% which everyone is happier for.

Some cute nurses there which is always good.

Schtoo, can I have that sirloin medium well done with some pepper sauce?

Yeah Clinton1, the lawn is taking a back seat at the moment and I have to atack the weeds in the garden on Saturday.

I'll post with any more news later on, have to go watch Ghost in the Shell on good old SBS.

Good news.
