A little bit of joy

I’d like to introduce you to my great grandson Tyler, born yesterday morning weighing in at 8lb 5oz. He’s a little bit poorly currently in NNU but he’s responding really well to antibiotics, my 17 year old granddaughter had him by c section but she’s doing really well too.

❤️Xx Jane

Oh my goodness how wonderful Jane, and like CallmeMum says it’s wonderful to see such good news on here! Thank you. Hope he’s not in NNU long & your granddaughter can hold him in her arms as long as she wants. My daughter went into the SCBU (special care baby unit) when she was born 25yrs ago as she had breathing difficulties. Was there was 5 days & it was fairly traumatic at the time so am sending love to you, & her at this precious time.

Much love

Sarah xxx

Cropcrop in reply toSarahsJourney

Thank you, my youngest also had 5 days (33 years ago 😬) in SCBU, he couldn’t breathe and had a zero apgar level and he’s fine now so I am able to understand this situation and my granddaughter knows I know exactly how she is feeling. Love back to you and I hope your treatment plans work well for you ❤️Xx Jane

SarahsJourney profile image
SarahsJourney in reply toCropcrop

Wow very similar to me then, although her apgar I think was about 4/5.

I’d love to know if it impacted on your relationship with your son, as I def felt a distance from my daughter due to literally holding her for seconds then she was taken away, mind you, I also had post-natal depression too so...

Cropcrop profile image
Cropcrop in reply toSarahsJourney

I too only held him for a second while they cut the cord then he was whisked away to SCBU after they got him breathing and I got a Polaroid photo to take to the ward instead of a baby, I think it made me a little overprotective of him and I think I was possibly a little scared of him too, I had baby blues so was blubbering snotty mess especially one day when we got a call on the post natal ward for me to go to SCBU immediately, I don’t think I’ve ever run so fast in my life, you can imagine the thoughts running round in my illogical brain 😬, turns out they said I could now feed him myself instead of expressing, I must have been a sight sat there in the unit sobbing and breastfeeding at the same time 🤔. He’s a big lovely gentle man now and, if i’m honest, I’m still overprotective of him 😊 ❤️Xx Jane
