Piccies through the days...

I might be on 9ml's of Mummy's milk, but twice a day I have a cocktail of drugs, this tops up my tummy and makes me sleepy. There's caffeine, sodium, potassium, vitamin and diuretic and they've started me on an iron liquid too - wowzers, what a mixture. Mummy gave me my drugs today and it's possible that I'll have some when I go home.

I've been a good boy today. I haven't been out or about, but hopefully I'll have a cuddle tomorrow. Mummy and Daddy will come in the morning, Mummy will go swimming and then she'll come back to spend the afternoon with me, she might even read me a story; I like the one about the chimp who's lost his Mummy, a butterfly helps him find her.

Mummy's been calculating how much I weigh in grams and pounds. I'm 1120g's which is 2lbs 80z's - mega! She's been looking on the internet (whatever that is) at clothes for me but there's not a lot that are small enough.

Mummy and Daddy are going to take me home to their little house, so they've been chatting about where my bed is going to go in their sitting room. They'll get me a cot/bed, a changing thing for to lye on which has got drawers and things and a chair for her to sit on when she's feeding me (which she's a bit scared about as she thinks it'll hurt).

I can't wait to go home. There's not a specific time frame or a date that I can look forward to, but I'm sure it'll be around my due date which is 19th August; odd considering I'm already here.

  1. Hello my darling. Your weight is doing very well indeed, a big drop in mummies milk but what a cocktail of goodies in between. I will look for something nice for you to wear here in France and bring things over with me when I come back in August. Sounds as if you are getting plenty of rest with your drugs and hope tomorrow brings you that cuddle you have been waiting for tomorrow from mummy and daddy. Love you loads and loads.xxxxx

  3. Hi Oscar,

    Nice blog. I shamelessly model mine on yours! It's good to have you in room 4 with me, I relally missed you when I was moved, and I actually got quite ill, which I think we because I was pining for my neighbour!

    We weigh nearly the same now - you are catching up with me. I am now 2lb 11oz, so there is only 3oz difference. I need to up my milk intake now - i'm only on 0.5ml per hour at the moment! I bet we'll be leaving hospital on about the same day, which makes sense, as our official birthdays are only 1 day apart!

    Anyway - thanks for the advice on the dummy - i now have my own dummy, but I haven't had a chance to use it yet - so i'll let you know how it goes when mummy gives it to me.

    Keep growing and see you tomorrow!

    love

    Harriet
