Following on from 'boys that go bump in the night'...Ben seemed to be doing fine and I was confident he was on the up that i got up thursday morning intending to go to work....hmm...er no....gave him his morning milk and it bounced 10 mins later. Phoned hospital as he was still on his 'keep an eye on him for next 72 hours' after the fall, they wanted him back in. Shorted version we spent all day on the assesment ward with Ben being sick again after nurse gave him 2 biscuits and milk. They couldnt say for sure if it was a bug or connected to the head injury so they kept him (and me) in overnight. Ben was fine and slept from 7pm til 6am, i had no sleep at all, in fact i'm sure i had more sleep on the maternity ward after he was born.
Was laying awake thinking about the last time i had stayed over night on a kiddies ward. It was with my youngest daughter whos now 10. In fact when i actually thought about it she was the exact same age. They are both geminis and their birthdays are less than 2 weeks apart. When she was Bens age we had arranged to go down to exeter to stay with my sister who was at uni down there-it was half term week.
My daughter was having breathing probs which turned out to be croup and we spent 3 nights there with her on a nebuliser every 2 hours, needless to say we never made it to exeter! 
Allowing for the birth dates and that they were both admitted on a thursday (we were going to exeter fot the weekend on the friday!) it works out that they were the exact same age! 
Too weird!
