Well we lost one chick over night.

At least it wasn't a lavender one. I still have 4 or 5 that are looking shaky. I started medicating them yesterday at noon, and they get a heavy dose the first 48 hrs and then the meds get cut in half. So I'm thinking we'll see who makes it through tonight and then hopefully the worst is over. I did see a couple of them eating today, so it seems that some definently got it worse than the others. I have 3 blue English Orps in there with them and they have seemed fine. They are the same age as the banty cochins but twice as big. Thanks for all the positive thoughts and prayers! It seems to be working!

Stay cool, calm and relaxed and put your feet up and tell DH to bring you something cold to drink!!!

But do keep us posted. Hoping everything will work out fine.

OMGosh, she has some beautiful birds! And her bird barn is awesome! She is only about 45 min from me, so when my coop is done, I may have to pay her a visit, lol. Thanks for sharing her website!

you are getting clumsier by the minute. I fear (in a good way of course) that you are about to fall into the pool. You will be soo cool and refreshed that you will need to be escorted out of the water.

Yay for the sale!! I'm looking through my husband's geeky card collection for stuff to sell to fill our pockets right now ... I over-spent with the kids summer camps, but I think he has some cards here that are worth $$.

I'm so sorry about all the additional stresses you have going on right now. Hopefully the tumor will turn out to be benign, or better yet, an anomally in the scan. Good for you for doing some things to pamper yourself.

Eat some protein. I felt like that late in my preganancy, and was shopping at Trader Joes one day when I got so dizzy I thought I was going to pass out - I sat down in the aisle and was afraid to stand. A couple of strangers ran next door and got my a burger from Kidd Valley - that was the last thing I wanted, but they crouched on the ground there by me and insisted I eat it, so I did and felt much better. Ayou'll big, greasy burger, and it did not make me puke! It was the only red meat I had during my entire pregnancy because even the sight of meat or eggs made me hurl. (I ate lots of fish, and sometimes wonder if mercury in the fish contributed to Alex's autism. I ate fish for both lunch and dinner almost daily.)

In a few weeks, when you have your baby, you'll be overwhelmed by the love you feel for your little one, the feeling is amazing. I know you have not had an easy pregnancy, but all the yuck you feel now will seem like nothing to go through for such a beautiful little child.
