I should also say, I'm so glad they decided not to sedate Jake at 15months (the last sedation he had was MRI at about 6months) ... I'm not really looking forward to the 3 year check though. He may be CAPABLE of lying still long enough now, but will he WANT to?!?!!! He can be pretty stubborn and difficult if he doesn't want to do something, especially if he gets shy/scared!

Glad the fetal echo went well. I remember what a relief that was that there wasn't anything major.
As for the sedated echos I remember my youngest (she just has a murmor like her brother which is innocent) getting a regular sedated echo at 1 year and she acted like she was possessed. Wouldn't wish that on anyone. The cardiologist called the next morning to check on us as she hadn't seen anything like it before. Apparently we had kept her from sleeping well that night whereas we were all so exhausted from the ordeal we slept like babies. lol.

Awww, I'm not looking forward to future echos, hope J doesn't have to be sedated.
I can hardly believe it, but J has decided to eat!   I don't know why he has decided to start eating now, and I'm hoping he'll continue to go forward....but wow! There is light at the end of the tunnel!

you may be surprised Nikki..
We had ours yesterday and Milla was an angel!! She lay still for her echo, rolling over and lifting her chin with no problem..even said thank you marcus at the end.
Stood up all proud to be measured - the first time she has been tall enough to do it against the wall!! happily got weighed, offered her finger to Bing for sat check and blood pressure and them watched without fuss at her ecg! sometimes she is such a trooper!!
soo she has more narrowing in her SVC - which they cant keep playing with - so will do an MRI at the end of the year
Heart is great. Still looking at 4 and a half for next bypass
weight and height - was born below the 15th now above the 50th!!!
SO excited - my beautiful girl - Docs were really pleased she is so well all things considered

Roman was crawling under people's chairs and across the clinic trying to escape out in the hallway LOL
I have medium length blonde hair....blue eyes....
Dunno if this link will work - but here is a recent pic of me and my darling
http://www.facebook.com/home.php#!/photo.php?pid=11503953&id=809895149
I remember a woman and her little baby and her entourage of cameramen etc.....I wonder what was happening there - Dr Stirling said they were doing a documentary.

Aww, Milla is cute!! Its kinda weird seeing the scar on other kids. I'm so used to Jake now I barely see it, but others notice it with his top off.
Our appt is tues arvo. So bummed that Claire will only see them on tues arvos - Jake sleeps 2-3 hours in the arvo and he goes to daycare tues/thurs (i'm back at work the next week on those days so moved the appt forward) so it really doesn't work for him - and I'm paying for daycare that we won't use. and then they will expect an over-tired grumpy toddler to lie still for 30mins - can't see it happening!?!
anyone going to the easter egg hunt on mon at cornwell park? or the new west ak coffee group later in the month?

awww what a little cutie Milla is
I guess we were both so busy watching our little monkey's we didn't see each other!
We may go to the Easter Egg hunt if a nice day Not the coffee group tho as I work full time  , but nice that they have formed a group in our area
It sucks doesn't it - paying for daycare and not using it - there has been countless times when Roman has been sick and been away from daycare for most of the week

Aww, nice pic. I can't do pics anymore as I didn't go into photobucket for so long they threw me out, haha, and not techno-savvy enough to work out how to do it any other way! I'm Nikki Davy on Facebook though, heaps of pics there!  May see you at the easter egg hunt if we make it. Its a bit hard, as Jake sleeps most of the afternoon and its at 2pm, but we may hold him out for the day and go.
Yeah Jake had heaps of time off daycare his first winter being sick all the time, much better last year though, and hes only in 2 days at the mo (til june) so hes barely missed a day in over a year now.
