Miss Bad Wolf 34 Posted October 15, 2020 Just checking in. My goldfish Charley died but now I have Loki. He is small but will grow up sooner than later. My other fish Summers likes to rest during the day. She gets excited about food. I think she stays up late when I am sleeping. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Arctic Mama 3,648 Posted January 23 Also please excuse the radio silence on my end, I had my newest (and last!) little guy on Wednesday and he only just got out of the NICU. We are still trying to iron out nursing and such and should be discharged tomorrow, but with my surgical recovery plus trying to juggle a slightly premature newborn, I’m a bit MIA 😅 Max Theodore 2021-01-20 14:59 born 7lbs 13 oz 94th percentile 3544 grams (still enormous) 36” head 20.25” long 8-8 APGAR 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Arctic Mama 3,648 Posted February 17 Busy but we are okay, nothing much going on except a lot of nursing and trying to get sleep at random times. Recovery is really slow, since this is kid #8 and c section #4. Also it’s reeeeally cold and snowy out so that increases the desire to hibernate 😆 Max likes to be up from 2-6 am and doesn’t feel the least guilty about it. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

She has a bladder stone, normally they would treat with a diet change but she is already on a special diet for inflammatory bowel disease so they can't change it. So now we are reducing the the medication she is on for the IBD because that could be contributing to the stine, but has been a long expensive road of finding the right balance. Think we are finally there now Gonna be setting the pond up again over the next week. Hopefully everyone in there stays healthy now 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Think we are finally there now Oh no. That reminds me when Mrs. Kitty had kidney failure and then her thyroid was elevated. We couldn't treat the thyroid with out hurting the kidneys... I hate it when things get like that. It so hard to figure out what to do. I know you will do the best hun.

Fish keeping seems to be harder and harder... Mine are still plugging along. Is it in the filtration system? 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FishyMandy 6,296 Posted March 2 I think they are alright now..ive written up the full story on my blog topic Ive used almost all my meds trying to sort this out though so I dont know what Ill be doing if I need kana again, and I only have 2 tubes of metro left, neither are easily available in Aus and the site I normally buy from has been out of stock for like a year now.
