Thanks very much everyone for all your best wishes (and even cards from some of you!). Everyone has been very kind.

Lucy gave us all a bit of a scare by having lost 18% of her birth weight at 5 days old, so she was taken back into hospital to be fed up :cry: . The poor little mite was being poked and prodded and having needles stuck in her arm. I will admit to finding that very difficult to watch, but Claire made sure that she was holding Lucy's hand through it all.

A couple of days later, she was allowed home again, at only 8% below her birth weight. :)

Now being bottle-fed, she seems to be doing rather well. We have the next health-visitor checkup tomorrow, so we are looking forward to reading those digital scales (accurate, but soul-less).

I've attached a couple of pics. More will appear on Lucy's web page at http://www.claireandjohn.me.uk/button if you are interested.

Thanks again,

John, Claire & Lucy
