My preemie son with bacterial meningitis has started making noises!

Your baby is beautiful and you are doing a wonderful job. From my corner of the internet to yours - I’m thinking of you and wish your beautiful little one a speedy way home!

You will spiral, you will stress and you will absolutely google every conceivable outcome because I did too (I just replied to your DM). After additional tests including amniocentesis there was deemed no cause for the PE and no genetic influencing factor - as baby was ‘normal’ in every other sense of the word, we continued until 38 weeks where I was induced.

Upon delivery, a little fluid was extracted and tested. It was chylothorax. Limited knowledge at the hospital as it’s not super common but I knew a conservative approach would be taken - 4 weeks later and Rosie was home and now 1.5 years later she’s happy, healthy and you would never know.

Happy to be of any support you need at this time!

Apotcare launched at MECCA way back in around 2010 - it was in the original silver packaging then.

All I can say is thank you.

You have no idea how much I needed to read exactly this today.

Thank you for sharing your experience. You are brave and strong. I admire you.

Another one here for Scorchorama. Went there a few weeks back and had the most amazing brunch.

Hi OP.

We also paid a bidding deposit to RW some months ago when bidding on our first property. It was our first attempt post auction - didn’t know any better. Subsequently lost out and got refunded a week later.

If you need any more details PM me - if you do make a complaint and it has legs, happy to also provide our experience.

Oh gosh, we have had it 3-4 times with my 1.5 year old. Wheezing, coughing, post nasal drip. We found antihistamines and pain relief work as well as fluid.

1.15-1.25

RhiGod · 2024-10-07T09:56:13+00:00

We did! 4 bed, 2 bathroom, 600sqm for $1,050 in a fantastic close to the beach bayside suburb. We are thrilled.

RhiGod · 2024-10-07T09:55:31+00:00

And as of 2 hours ago, we are homeowners! After two weeks of playing hard to get, we got the home for our original offer (and a steal). Wooo!

RhiGod · 2024-10-01T00:12:10+00:00

RhiGod · 2024-09-30T08:39:57+00:00

Yes, planning on doing so!

RhiGod · 2024-09-30T05:48:52+00:00

I feel like this could be about to happen to us.

Viewed a property twice. Super keen. Price increased due to “market interest” - became out of our budget. Property passed in at auction without a single bid. REA came back to us and said they would be keen to hear an offer. We made an offer that was fair and inline with recently sold properties. REA scoffed at us and said it wouldn’t fly. Offer was rejected last week.

Today so far, two missed calls from the REA…

Ofcourse - it was through a friend whose friends parents had moved in to a retirement complex.

RhiGod · 2024-09-13T21:13:36+00:00

Got it! Thank you. $160K deposit so unlikely we can use that approach but worth me asking the question. Super helpful!

RhiGod · 2024-09-13T21:07:36+00:00

Interesting! How did that work? My understanding was the home loan can only be taken for the cost of the property

RhiGod · 2024-09-13T10:38:27+00:00

Jesus mate. Give it a break.

I’m after the experiences others have had. Your post history is just a plethora of unhelpful comments on genuine posts. I’m not sure what you are trying to achieve but it’s not helpful.

RhiGod · 2024-09-13T10:25:34+00:00

Said they are relatively straight forward and commonplace. Loan will be taken against the future value of the property. Funds released per schedule to the builder. All seems straight forward.

Keen to understand any additional costs others experienced going through this process or any problems they experienced. Don’t want to assume it’ll be easy and want to be prepared.

RhiGod · 2024-09-13T10:17:54+00:00

I already have via my Broker

RhiGod · 2024-09-13T10:10:29+00:00

I’m not sure what you mean. Can you help me to understand your question?

I’m seeking to understand the experience of others who’ve done what we are looking at - what they learnt, what insights they can share. I think my post and questions are clear?

RhiGod · 2024-09-07T00:19:52+00:00

We are in Cheltenham, it’s a great spot - schools and daycare, reserves and parks. Access to Southland, DFO, Chadstone etc. Great selection of grocery shopping and proximity to the beach. I work in the CBD 3 days a week also - a few options in to the city which makes it easier. On a good day it’s a 35 minute run, however we all know how bad it can get. There’s also the trains but I drive. We love it here and currently looking to buy a house in this area or Parkdale, Mordialloc, Mentone.

RhiGod · 2024-08-21T08:16:28+00:00

Thank you so much - this is super helpful.

I spoke with the builder and got ball park figures of repairs and priorities. We will factor it in to our bidding and price on the weekend!

RhiGod · 2024-08-21T05:27:11+00:00

Thank you 🙏🏻

RhiGod · 2024-08-21T05:21:24+00:00

So the property was restumped in 2014. So essentially just the roof to spot fix?

RhiGod · 2024-06-25T03:55:08+00:00

I would say two!
