On the 30th Jan 2021, a bed at GOSH was finally available for Rosie! The transport team came and packed her up in a special transport incubator to take her via ambulance to GOSH. My husband wen in the ambulance with her and I followed with my parents driving me.
We were told they would only accommodate one parent but we were hoping that they would have space for us both.
It was quite nerve racking as we had been warned if an emergency came in while we were on the way to GOSH they may take priority for the free bed and we would have to turn back. I didn't feel fully settled until we got there and knew the bed was really truly hers.
Transporting to GOSH:
The very evening we were there I was hoping to feel relaxing and glad about the end of the hospital journey being insight... That is when I noticed MY CS had an infection. We were in central London... It was evening... and now I needed antibiotics quick as this infection could go to 0-100 very fast.
So we spent the evening in a and e... Just when we hoped out bad luck was finally over!:
Photos from our stay at GOSH:
Rosie has her very first bath at GOSH - she wasn't impressed:
Rosie having her sleep study at Gosh. They fitted a new NPA which was 7cm (compared to Colchester's temporary one which was 9cm!) The sleep study showed she had no signs of obstruction during the night with this new NPA and X-rays showed it fitted well in the right position:
