My Girl is expecting a baby which is due in December and will be a Christmas baby, I am told that I going to be called Grandma, although I much prefer Nanny I will try to change My Girl's mind on that over the course of the next couple of months!
In true My Girl style she has given us the most worrying time over the last couple of weeks and has been very unwell. It started with a phone call from Josh her partner to say that she had been taken into hospital with back pain and sickness, the phone calls and updates went on for a day as she was tested for various things whilst having some heavy duty drugs to control the pain. I managed to arrange sometime off from work at short notice and was able to go to Manchester to stay close by. Eventually it was discovered she had gall stones, which is very common in pregnancy, however My Girl then went on to develop Pancreatitis as a result of the gall stones. Careful monitoring followed for another day or so and eventually the doctors decided that the gall bladder would have to be removed to prevent the Pancreatitis becoming any worse. As you can imagine being in mid pregnancy this was not an ideal thing to happen and to have an operation at this point was scary!
The operation went well, My Girl is very much better and the baby is doing OK! What a huge relief for all of us.
I have been backwards and forwards to Manchester several times now over the last 2 weeks and have driven hundreds and hundreds of miles! I hope I am forgiven for the severe lack of blogging recently, but I am sure you can understand why.
The last visit to Manchester was to spend a couple of days with My Girl for her birthday and a couple of chill out days together, we did have a lovely time, one of the days we visited a very well know Seaside town....... can you guess where it is????
More about our day out to follow.....
