Its been a quiet couple of days as jenni has been very ill with a bad worm infection. Jenni joined im solidarity with 1.5 billion of the worlds population who are infected with worms. She has had de-worming medicine and is now on the mend. Today I too have had a tummy bug but its more of a classic bengal belly and I think I am on the mend also. Konica blames my illness on too many sweetsfrom the bakery. She could well be right but they are so delicious its worth the risk.
last night shubrho taught me how to do a spinal anaesthetic. This was pretty exciting as its quite a specialised procedure. I managed to do it fine but I cant yet claim a champagne tap as there was a tiny bit of blood in the first drop.
Overnight we had a very small and very premature baby born. There isnt much that can be done for her and it is unlikely she will survive. We are trying kangaroo care which involves skin to skin contact with mother and baby. We brought some kangaroo care slings from the UK which are like a sling that holds the baby in place. Its the best way to keep a baby warm and is just as good as an incubator.
