They had scheduled her to be induced next Thursday as she is high risk and on blood thinners. Thank you for your kind words!

Forgive me, Pam. I see now that you said when she was going to be induced.

It’s getting close! I am sure she is ready for this baby to be born.

Well I am a MIMI!! DDs water broke the night I posted, and BB was born yesterday morning at 651.. a few hiccups along the way but all good now! 30 plus hours of labor and 4 hours of pushing. He is adorable, and hopefully they get to come home tonight once he gets his circumcision and waits his 2 hours. ( and poops! ) They are looking forward to their own bed! i was a zombie when I got home,, took a way to short 2 hour nap and a bath then back in. They all looked better today! And a real nights sleep helped me too! His name is Brady, and he has a full head of black hair. Like his Mama and Dad

Such exciting news.
Just the memory of the scent of a newborn little head eases all tension. What a treasure. 🥰

cwillie - Crud!

Seems so many friends struggled through the latter half of June. Overwhelmed, frustrated and sad.

Today is a holiday in my country and we enjoyed the afternoon outdoors with my best friend and her daughter. Lunch and a swim. I also made pie. We chatted, laughed and decompressed. Much needed.

I hope things improve for all of you.

CWillie,

Stupid West Jet!

My hubs works for an airline. Not West Jet. But he shared office space with a lot of West Jet employees. Not much nice to say about their work culture there.

Sorry you had to cancel your trip.

This trip seemed doomed from the start, we had originally booked with the airline that went bankrupt this spring (Lynx?) after that it was either West Jet or even pricier Air Canada...flying in this country is insane. At least we were able to cancel almost everything so shouldn't be out too much money.

Anxiety ,

An ER trip that results to a hospital admission is your chance to pass the baton to POA as it should be .
Do not bring Mom home . Let POA figure out where Mom goes . Tell POA Mom needs to be placed , you are done .

Nacy -could be a good opportunity.

Well, I finally made it to a doctor here. His receptionists/nurses were kind, and caring and professional. The doctor was OK - careful, and straightforward. I am good with him. But there are two problems. The clinic is in E'ton and there is much road construction in the area. I went in a circle till I found them. And the other thing is that they are a walk-in clinic so everyone and their dog was there, crying baby, snuffling, coughing people. Not so good. The construction will pass eventually, but the walk-in nature will not. And they are rushed off their feet with too much work as there aren't enough drs here.

But these days there isn't much to choose from. There is a dr closer to me and I will try him in a while. His office is on the edge of E'ton only 20 mins away and seemingly not so busy. It might work!

There are delays in the states too . Some areas worse than others .

Im on a 6-9 month waiting list for skin scratch allergy tests so I can get allergy shots , I already know I’m pretty much allergic to air at this point .

I wouldn't say our health care is broken. Mother had great care at no cost to any of us. but we do have a grave shortage of doctors in Northern Alberta at this time.

It concerns me that they are so rushed at that clinic. Seems to me more mistakes could be made. But they do seem very competent. They took my blood pressure height, weight and blood sugar right off the bat, Never had my blood sugar taken in a doctor's office before. I think it is a good idea.

Way I quit bothering with tests. I did the skin allergy test years ago but they didn't reveal my allergy to dairy or gluten - just some pollen and molds. It was not that useful.

Golden ,

I’m hoping to get allergy shots to help control the asthma that is being triggered .
