Oh HUGE hugs {{{{{XXXX}}}}} to you Laura. What a traumatic experience....I so feel for you and your precious little girl. Makes me want to go beat up those Drs. for you!

I think you've just managed to explain why Maddy hates having her clothes off too. She tested highly for jaundice and they kept taking damn blood samples from her. The heel ***** test bloods kept clotting so in the end I forced them to take her to NICU and get one of the specialists there to take blood via a vein in the inside of her elbow.

What an amazing woman you are for doing your absolute best to ensure your little girl had the most gentle entry into the world possible. Please dont't feel like you've failed her or that you're a bad mum...she is so lucky to have you!
