1 week out of hospital, and now my wife's developed headaches, a fever, back pain and this rash that developed yesterday which has spread from her face and is moving down to her breasts, and she's gettig boated aroudn the face, chin and hands - and she happens to be breastfeeding Dante. She's sleeping right now, and then it's back to hospital. She had a blood and urine test done yesterday to see if there may be an side effects from the epidural :( . So taking care of a newborn, sick wife and Clara my toddler is proving to be quite a strain, not to mention the trouble I'm having with a couple of supp sponsors on this board where I cold lose my purchase and/or money and ignore my emails despite my patience :mad: .

Man, this is turning out to be the week from hell. Lckily my energy levels, and some help form EAT/AMP are helping me through it.

Sorry guys, just needed to vent.

Congrats on the birth of your son! I hope all is well with your wife...my prayers are with you and your family! a word of advice on ordering from any supplier (not just here)..use your CC card and if you have a problem then you have a resource with your CC company ..that is if you can't work it out with these suppliers...that being said..I've ordered from almost all suppliers on this board and received outstanding service each time. God bless you and your family..my prayers go out to you and especially to your wife so that she may recover quickly and get her health back asap!

cheers, she gets the results from the blood test tomorrow, so fingers crossed. As to the companies on here, yes I agree, but there's one in particular, where I will make it public after gettign advice from senior ppl on this board. That is unless I hear back. They have left me completely in the dark.

Best of luck.....giving birth is a pretty violent thing to happen to a woman's body. I'm sure she's going to recover just fine. Congratulations.

Is she on anti-biotics? It could be an allergic reaction. I'm not a Dr. though ...

ok seems the rash is just a viral thing, thank god. Some time today she gets back the results of the blood test. But all seems ok for the moment. Thanks for your prayers friends.

Good news so far to be sure. Hope she has a speedy recovery and you guys get to start doing the happy new parent thing soon. I've seen a lot of friend's and relative's lives transformed by their first kid. Definitely a happy if hectic time.

Stay strong bro, easy to say, tough to do but this is where she needs you most.

Odds are in a couple of years, it will be distant memories that you talk to each other about at one of your kid's birthday parties :)

Keep to happy future thoughts and the very, very, very best wishes and luck!

I have a daughter and know what you're going through. Believe in a good outcome, it keeps you sane...

many many many thanks for your concern. Wed got back last night and luckily all seems to be ok. Her white blood cell count is fine, but her CRP or CRV levels had gone through the roof, but have now come down, however she still has the rash and bad itch. They think it's just viral. We have to go to see our doc today who will be getting the results of the other tests they ran last night.

First off, congrats on the new life you 2 brought into the world!! Here's something my great great great grandmother wrote some 158 years ago, it always helps me see through the tough times.

no... i actually dont think that im the kind of person that can handle having children..... i love LOVE youngin's but i have no tolerance for the occasional bouts of selfishness, inconsideration etc....that children get at times in their lives. i want babies, and grandchildren.... but not teens and twenties..... i have to figure out how to do that still.....

i dont handle certain stresses of life very well at all...... it worries me... so as of now...no child plans....

so far i've settled on having alot of pets, becoming the "family babysitter" for all of my future nephews, nieces, etc...... but if i accidently get pregnant when i'm 30....then i guess i'll be a parent :)

nah i think ur wrong...when it happens you'll love it...sure there are difficulties...it's all worth it...as to kids being selfish...I really do think it's 'mostly' to do with parenting.
