Please help a preemie

Shame, man! At least they don't have that far to fall when they are little. (Unlike us!) Those first steps are probably the thing parents look forward to most after baby has started talking. However, you will need eyes in the back of your head now - they get into everything!

 

Karmi hasn't started crawling yet, so walking is probably a way off.

There is about 1 week difference between walking and running .. and once they run, they only slow down again when they are teenagers..[emoji6][emoji6]

Very true

 

There is no walking in our house anymore

Nearly 20 months (cant wait to get to two so we can just say they are 2 )

And this is why our cats are very distressed ATM.

Just a week before her first birthday and Bunny is in hospital once again. This time it is bronchitis. She really is very susceptible to airway infections

 

Her mom had a hard time yesterday, because Karmi's dad was working out of town. I've added her message for those of you who understand Afrikaans. Basically there was a power outage because their municipality owes Eskom a lot of money. She had to struggle with a heavy generator to be able to nebulise her sick baby. Other stuff too. The stress and struggle reminded her of the terrible things they went through in July last year.

Sorry to hear that the little bunny is sick

 

Hoping she has a speedy recovery!

Bunny's cheeks are not quite as red any more. She looks better and at least mom knows how to pack for hospital stays. (She has had plenty of practice by now!)

Bunny is recovering at home. We are grateful that the bronchitis did not lead to further complications.

This is it!!!  Karmi is one year old today!  Bunny beat the odds and the tiny warrior has never stopped fighting.  I wonder what she will make of her first birthday party on Saturday? 

 

- From 980 g to 7.25 kg.

- From 32 cm to 67 cm.

- From 1 ml milk to 180 ml milk (and food!).

How far she has come!  Thank you, Hubbers, for helping her get here.

Thank you, LWB.  Karmi's parents are torn today.  They are overjoyed to have a beautiful baby girl, but will never forget or get over the loss of her brother.

Having never been in their situation I can't say what it must feel like but I can only imagine it must be so difficult. Karmi's birthday will always be an emotional time for them with so many mixed feelings. Happy to celebrate another successful year with Karmi but morn the death of her brother.
