Wooshette_ your darling granddaughter was premmie wasn't she?

My sister in law got told this week that her baby is tiny, he's in the 6th percentile :( she's 34 weeks pregnant at the moment and she's being monitored every second day to make sure the placenta doesn't **** up. We're all pretty worried. She's had a shocking pregnancy--the first 17 weeks were constant vomiting, she had a week's break and then developed unstable pelvis.

Anyway, do you know of anywhere we can get tiny premmie baby clothes? They're going to try to get him to 4lbs before they give her a caeser.
Hope you don't mind me sending your sister in law my prayers and positive/healing thoughts for her bub, really can't imagine what she must be going through, just sending her and the baby all my compassion and positive vibes :)

Of course I don't mind. You're a good egg DVB.

It's especially hard because I come from a big family of control freaks and we're all at a bit of a loss because we have absolutely no control over this situation. I just to keep as positive as possible and be there for whatever they need.

Maaaaaan, last night was the first time I'd watched the NRL Footy Show in months and that happens?! It reminded me of the time Nathan Brown broke his leg except Beau was there to say "****" or "Yuck" heaps.
Someone failing to get ready for a broken ******* arm is more interesting than what generally happens on the Footy Shows, tbh.

I love reading News.com comments, they are gold.

I saw one bloke from NSW realise that the reason for Global Warming was Daylight Savings. Just let that sink in a little bit.
I'm more worried about my curtains fading than global warming.

Saw that one, was ******* hilarious.

There are a few others on the Guardian, the right-wing and left-wing blogs hahaha. The best ones are definitely on the Guardian IMO even the bloody authors get involved!

Some of the political party facebook pages can be funny at times. Others make you wonder how they breathe.
The WADA page post announcement of appeal was good for a chuckle. Moron comments galore.

Yea our baby was about 5 pounds and a month early. Theres heaps of premmie clothes in the shops but he will probably be in the hospital for a while, ours was in there for 3 weeks and fancy clothes are pointless..we bought a heap of Bonds onsies in 00000 and the hospital also had clothes and tiny beanies which they used anyway. Rosie was monitered too every day because the baby wasn't growing and they took her out very quickly once they decided she needed to be out and on a feeding tube..her heart and brain function became unstable so it was pretty scary and an emercency but they deal with premmies all the time and got her out quickly and safely. Unfortunately she wasn't able to breast feed because the baby had to be on a tube and hand fed with a bottle which upset her but now it's no big deal..everything worked out fine and the bub has grown and developed perfectly on a bottle. It's pretty stressful overall and not the best way to have a baby but I can tell you premmie ceasar is no big deal anymore and the most important thing is to stay relaxed and go with the flow, and realise that in a month or 2 the baby pretty much looks normal..a bit small but they catch up. 2 of my nephews were under 5 pounds and 5 weeks early, and both are 6'3 now! One of my best friends Michaela was only 3 pounds and she she grew up perfect with no health problems.
Oh and Rosie also had a 'heart shaped pelvis' which is not condusive for growing a baby.

Anyway rest assured it's not uncommon and the main thing is for the mum to stay positive and relaxed..easier said than done though!
Good Luck to your sis in law and bub :hearts: :rainbow:
