| | Notices | Welcome to PTSD Forum. Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a life threatening, debilitating disorder that can break down a sufferer’s body through anxiety and stress. Further it poses a significant suicide risk resulting from the brains neurological imbalance and chemical depression. Sufferers often live in denial, thus this community is aimed at helping PTSD sufferers help themselves through others experiences, guidance and education. We are here for the sufferer, spouse and families surrounding PTSD. Spouses and family are too often forgotten in this equation, and often they receive all the worst that PTSD has to offer. If you're involved in any way with PTSD, get registered and help yourself now. Non-active members will eventually be deleted. If you are not a sufferer, carer or someone within the mental health industry, and active, then there is little reason for you to be a member of this forum. Non-active members with zero posts are deleted periodically during the year. |  | |

| | He is going to be a tall one, lets just say that Jods. He is taller than all the other kids his age at playgroup by a good inch or more. We estimate he will hit just over 6ft, but have wider shoulders than his brother, more like myself... 6ft and built like a brick shit house, where Logan is tall and lean, just filling out a bit now, and nut is going to be like a brick wall I think. |

| | Anthony,
Great pictures. You have beautiful boys! And happy birthday to Alexander. Sometimes it seems like yesterday that my girls were that little. My 'baby' turns 15 on Sunday. *sigh* Both of my girls were preemies and your Caleb weighs just a little less than both of my girls birth weights combined. LOL |

My oldest was in ICU for two weeks and once she started eating (no health problems other than being too little to suck on the bottle) was able to come home. Now she out-eats both my hubby and me and is about as big around as my little finger. LOL
My youngest was in ICU for three weeks, whole host of problems (apnea (stopping breathing), bradycardia (low heart rate), and jaundice) came home with a monitor (heart/breathing) and meds for five months. Razor's edge pretty much describes those first few months.
Once they grew some, they've been healthy as horses since.  |

| | Yer, that would no doubt be some tough times for you Marlene. You did a great job obviously, because they are both healthy... well done. I know I would be a bit of a mess if we had one in ICU or anything.... |

| | Anthony,
After having my youngest, I would swear that my girls were twins born almost 2 years apart. It is still hard for me to tell which is which when I go back and look at pictures of them as newborns.
Funny how nature works... |
