Fingers crossed...

...that's what one of the consultants said to Mummy. That meas that I'm being a good boy and am progressing in the right direction. My friends watch over me to keep me on track... thanks Champ, Kraut and Tiny-too; I'm glad you're here 24 hours a day.

I got a new home overnight, it's a lot smaller... more compact and bijou, like me...

I'm 1540g's today which is 3lb's 6oz's, mega stuff this fortified milk. Mummy's milk 'straight from the cow' type isn't fortified (Mummy says 'no jokes about the cow thing please, don't start calling me daisy'...). I say that you can call her anything you like, within reason of course!

I had my first lot of vaccinations today; Diphtheria, Tetanus, Pertussis (DTP) and Haemophilus Influenza B (Hib) in one injection. Meningococcus Group C - in another. What a cocktail! I don't think I'll be afraid of needles when I'm older.

I had another nuzzle with Mummy. She smells yummy; this gastrotube gets in the way a bit though. Harriet's got her tube up her nose, it's called a nasotube, it makes perfect sense to do this so that it clears the way for the boobie. I'd best start cracking on with breathing lark...

  1. Hi Oscar,

    A tube up the nose is definitely the way forward. I found it a lot easier to suck on my mummy's boobie without the silly tube in the way! You must be really big and strong to have those vaccinations today - we really are human pin cushions aren't we?

    Hugs & Kisses

  3. Hey there little guy!
    Greetings from Canada!
    You don't know me, but I know your Daddy - the last time he saw me I was three! Only a couple years older than you! Glad to hear that you're hanging in there, my Granny (Priscilla) says you're awfully cute. Hope you get to go home soon!

  4. Hi Oscar
    Looking forward to seeing you on Wednesday - glad to hear you are growing so fast - just think you'll soon get to be as tall as your Daddy's cousin Tom - he's over 6ft now (ok he is 15) but that's something to aim for if you keep growing at your rate!!!
    Loads of love

  5. Hi Oscar,

    Can you tell your mummy that my mummy's mobile number is 07717512000. Now that I have moved rooms, she's worried she won't see your mummy any more! Can you ask your mummy to text her number to my mummy please.

    lots of love

    Harriet
