Just a tiny scratch but it oozed a microscopic pin prick of blood.... I though it was the most awful thing that could have happened. I had broken my baby...<br />But I had to develop a "look at that, nothing, you're ok, lets get on with what we're doing." while inspecting for major heamorrage, the need for stitches ( then it would be a dont bleed all over the carpet, lets get it clean mode), and watching out for shock....Both mine abnd theirs. A friend of mine would immediately think "Shall I call an ambulance" and her child became very worked up at every wee scratch. It all gets better, and with the above problem, well Andrea doesnt fall over and cut herself now...<br />GA Kate x x xAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21563252.post-27661934661830820512009-10-05T01:48:38.504+11:002009-10-05T01:48:38.504+11:00Note for Big A...

Well I was anticipating the worst (as you do) and about 5 mins before we were called in, Kel turned to me and said 'I don't think I can do this either' hmm fat lot of good we were together! But as with M Roo, baby Lil had a nano second cry and that was that! The first round is always the worst. <br /><br />I don't think any names I could come up with could compete with those that have written before me...

I was more worried about the immunizations than I needed to be, but I think that was because of all the blood tests we had to go through in his first few weeks.

See the Friends episode where they wake Rachel's baby and then cant get it back to sleep....<br />Naming a Griffen...? a new activity in my life, never had to name a Griffen before. I think the emblem for Andrea and Robert's school was a Griffen so for me it could be "TURTON", the name of the school, so not relevant to you, My mum, Jo's Grandma, called every un-named thing as FRED, and Robert had/s a green creature of indeterminate breed known as "Henry". Or how about JIFF THE GRIFF?<br /><br />I know what you mean about the Jabs. There will be many times where you want to avoid, or scream or behave in an uncalm way, but you have to find a way to convey peace and calm and an "its OK" persona, "your doing the right thing" for the sake of your child. It will carry on throughout the rest of your life so its good to practice now! You'll manage, you've been through so much already.

I hated that time, in your life, so Nana stepped up and was strong to take you. I'm with his other Mommy.<br /><br />Love the photo of the family, thanks, and to think 11 weeks have passes. I'm with you in that I was up checking, making sure you were breathing, up again at the slightest grunt, then just up waiting and watching you, as you slept so soundly...but not me. So I fully understand where you are coming from, but it is all being a parent. You can't remember all these things, until your children experience them, then you realise that it is a copy of yourself. Just take the good bits from me.<br /><br />Groofus the Griffin.<br /><br />Hugs and love to you all, and a special kiss to Marty.Mothersupexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02126866517240477691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21563252.post-89752776302779545112009-09-30T17:16:54.736+10:002009-09-30T17:16:54.736+10:00...Amberogle...? or the cuter sussnite ...?
