Those are great Chris

Things generally seem to be going well, Amelie was getting quite jaundiced to start with but she's a lot better now and nice and pink because we've been keeping her by the window in the sunlight and feeding her every two hours.

We have had a couple of evenings where she has been quite ratty but she's now having Infacol with each feed and it seems to help and she's been a lot better.

We've found a new favorite place to sit, next to me on the sofa which seems to help calm her without her getting too hot.

If anyone would like to come and visit then we have a free weekend

Can't believe how small her hands are!! Has she grown much since birth? I know babies grow quickly - how do you measure it?

How's Aitch getting on? Fully recovered?

I thought it was normal for babies to be jaundiced for up to a week after birth owing to bilirubin build up? Or have I got that wrong?

In some of the photos she looks a lot like you Matt!

I'm not saying you're a big girl of course!

She really does look like Matt in some photos, I thought that. She has a lot of Aitch's features too.

Will · 30-07-2010, 18:46

You see, I always thought babies all looked the same, but I was very much wrong!

A lot of babies are born slightly jaundiced, or develop it shortly after birth, it needs to be kept on top of though or it can mean re-admission to hospital to spend some time under a special lamp to break it down.

Aitch and Matt sound like they've been doing a sterling job putting her in the sun, and feeding her lots though, so hopefully its all gone. She certainly looks a lot pinker. Well done Mummy and Daddy

I was lucky enough to meet the gorgeous girlie today. I'd forgotten how tiny newborns are, she is completely perfect!!
Matt and Aitch, you're doing a fantastic job, watching the 3 of you together made me very very happy xx
