Meningitis scare yesterday!
I think its safe to say its prob one of every parents worst nightmares seeing that dreaded rash and when you push the glass down on it it doesnt fade or dissappear...
We were very lucky that Josh didnt have meningitis after all but yesterday was a very scary day, we ended up having josh sleeping in our bed last night when we got home from hospital as we didnt want to be away from him!
(Even tho I did get a bit annoyed with all the kicking in my back by the morning )
I was just so glad he was ok.
Have to say the hospital was great and I think the whole experience was more traumatic for me than Josh and he was so brave the whole time, even when they took his blood and I was crying he did scream a little bit but as soon as theyd finished he was eating a biscuit and ok, cheeky monkey!
Just a reminder I guess to get suspicious rashes checked out straightaway, and I'm so relieved our little man is ok.
Hope everyone else had a lovely xmas and new year with their babies, lo's and bumps.
