Two days to catch up on as I have been otherwise involved for the last 24hrs with our daugther Alison, who had an 8lb 5oz girl at 9am on Monday morning.
Dilans Sunday was good, she gained more weight and was still looking "Cute" in her cot, however Monday has not been quite so kind to her as the last few days have been, nothing too major, just a small set back hopefully.Since she has come off the breathing aid her hemoglobin levels in her blood have dropped, this aids in the level of oxygen in the blood, on previous occasions the hospital have just given her a blood transfusion, however this time as her body appears to be starting to create the chemical needed to up this level itself they have decided to give a chance to rectify on her own this however has meant that she has had to go on an oxygen feed to her nose, I suppose you could call it a progression rather than a set back, it just seems that way when you see the tubes back on her. To finish on a more positive note Dilan is now a "HUGE" 3lb 6oz, so things probably are'nt that bad really! I will report back in 24hrs..........

Hi, please pass our congratulations onto Alison and all the family - does the new grandaughter have a name yet? She must seem enormous next to Dilan! Best wishes to all, wendy and colin
