    I've emailed her back to tell her I feel like rubbish now :p I've asked why he can't have them in his milk which guarantees he'll take them all instead of spitting them back out.. Will await her reply (and carry on!) :cool:

    Sorry, been lurking :D .... Elle, we were told the reason meds shouldn't be given in milk is because it doesn't guarantee that the baby gets the whole dose - what happens if they leave a quarter of the bottle that time? They've only had 3/4 of the meds. We were advised that, if we wanted to give them in milk, we should put about a 1/4 of the milk into a bottle and add the meds to that; feed it (so they get the whole dose); and then give the rest of the milk feed.

    Goes back to lurking ..... :wave:

    I don't want to comment on abortions, but can you imagine how the parents feel? Can't imagine they made an easy choice and then to find out that their baby survived it must be terrible.
    (Whited so people can choose whether to read it.)
    In the US there was a case where the baby was born alive and the mother requested medical help but they locked her in a room with the baby until it was too late. They made a film about it called 23 weeks. I'm sure it wasn't an isolated case.

    The partial birth abortions are far more barbaric but quicker!!.. though there is no chance of survival there. I couldn't believe any civilised society would actually allow this to happen.. absolutely evil.
    Apparently they aren't used in the UK. And have now been banned as a method in the US. Although personally I find the commonly used alternative method to PBA far more gruesome.

    Aww just found out DS' great-nana passed away on his birthday. I am soooooooo rubbish at knowing what to say when told things like that. I spoke to grandma (it was her mam) and she wasn't gonna tell me but i asked how great nana was and she sounded teary. :( Feel like i totally put my foot in it. She was 98 like, and had been deteriorating for some time now.
