Thank you to all

by mrs-connellComment Published at 17:4117:415 comments5 comments25 Visits25 VisitsReport

Hello All,

Thank-you to everyone who gave me support & kind word for my recent loss.

I have come to terms with it now & as my husband says is going to be fun trying again lol.

So I will keep trying & hopefully there is a better outcome next time.

Charli is still a bit heart broken cause she was really looking forward to becoming a big sister but I told her that she will be a big sister just not this time.

I told Charli that the baby went to heaven & my stupid mother in-law told her that baby died so now she is telling everyone that the baby died & went to heaven.

I'm really upset with my mother in-law cause I was quiet content to just have her say that the baby has gone to heaven, but there's nothing I can do to change that now & I told my mother in-law to stop telling her that the baby died so she can get over it & deal with it in her own way.

But once again thank you to everyone you have all been great.

Hugs & kisses to all

Jacki

I'm just wondering why is it called Muggies? Is it the kind that boots that it is?

When I heard about Muggies, I thought it was mugs... as in cups.

What is a parenting question?

by DarkenedAngelComment Published at 04:0004:007 comments7 comments45 Visits45 VisitsReport

There has been debate in the past about exactly what subjects relate to parenting advice that can be written about here on minti. When that question was raised I wrote an advice article on what I thought related to parenting, and it was well recieved by the minti community at the time. But, members come and go, society's attitude changes over time, and minti is no exception to the forever evolving and changing ebb and flow of community opinion. What was deemed as good advice a year ago might be seen as out-dated and useless now!

Last night the issue of exactly what is and isn't a parenting question was raised in the reported section. And it's a very good question!

Generally speaking, I look at it like this; if an advice article can be written about something on minti, then a question can be asked about it in Q&A. But that is just my opinion.

We wouldn't go writing an advice article on how to get a That's Life (TM) magazine puzzle completed, and a question about it shouldn't be posted in Q&A. That is generally accepted on minti. But what about asking for advice on how to get rid of a wart on our big toe? These sorts of questions are not about the kids or us as parents, but they're still generally accepted in Q&A.

Q&A states not much more than it is for parenting questions only, and that includes questions about the site itself, even though there are groups for site-related questions; and other questions should be posted in relevant groups.

As minti is by parents for parents, I'm going to raise the question to create clean and open discussion on the matter to see what the current community opinions on this are. So...

Where is the line drawn between what is and and what is not a parenting question?

Rukia is doing well.....

by ph419alwaysComment Published at 22:5022:506 comments6 comments24 Visits24 VisitsReport

Hi all!

Just wanted to let everyone know that Rukia has come out of her operation fine. She was operated on at 8am this morning and txted me at about 10:30am to say she was awake again and everything had gone well. She didn't freak out as she came out of the anaesthetic as she previously thought she would, and is going home tomorrow.

Cricket Great, Glenn McGrath's Wife Died This Morning (Sunday, 22-6-08)

by ArnaComment Published at 21:3421:3414 comments14 comments64 Visits64 VisitsReport

This was posted about 20 minutes ago on the National Nine News website.

Jane McGrath Dies Aged 42

Deepest sympathies to the McGrath family at this sad time.  Another Breast Cancer advocate lost at such a young age.

On a different note, this is proving that it isn't just the over 50's who are at increased risk.  Breast Cancer is striking the younger ladies too, and we need to make the issue more aware in the younger ladies too.

Please, if you have a suspicious lump in your breasts or notice changes that you can't explain, see your doctor and ask for a Breast Screen referral to be on the safe side.  (For Australians sorry).

Again, deepest sympathies to Glen McGrath and his family.

Another baby!

by tooshComment Published at 14:4414:4412 comments12 comments45 Visits45 VisitsReport

Jo gave birth to baby Bailey - 8lb 8oz - at 9.58am (UK time) Thursday morning after 5 1/2 hours labour. They are both doing well and when I have more information I will let you know. They will probably be in hospital a few days and then there should be some pictures.

CONGRATULATIONS  to Jo, Bobby & Mackenzie on the arrival of their little man - FINALLY!

Jo asked me to let everyone know as she probably won't get on for a while now.

Went to the docs today

by mrs-connellComment Published at 19:1019:105 comments5 comments27 Visits27 VisitsReport

Hi all,

First of all thank you all very much for you kind thought.

I went to the doctors today & it wasn't all bad news so far, all the test that have been done are still pointing to me still being pregnant, the doctor said that at the moment the bleeding I am having is 1 or 3 things,

(1) I am having a normal menstrual cycle & still pregnant

(2) I am having early pregnancy bleeding which is not uncommon

(3) I am in the early stages of a miscarriage

The reason he thinks it is more than likely 1 or 2 is because my blood count is still going up quite a bit which leads him to think that the pregnancy will continue.

If when I go back on Tuesday next week & the blood test they did today show the my blood levels have come down then they will do another one & if that show that they have come down some more then I have miscarried.

But at this point in time he said that I must still think & act like I am pregnant, but not allowed to do anything just sit down as much as possible & no heavy lifting ect so having said that any volunteers to come do my housework LOL.

I will update you all again on Tuesday.
