Lou - mum arrives on Monday so reckon everything will be just fine. Friends on call till then.
Lucy - really nice to hear the update on Thalia. Try not to listen too much to what health professionals tell you in terms of development, each child is an individual and I am sure she will be lifting her head up soon. Euan was a big strong boy 99 th percentile for height and weight since he was born so he could do these things early but at his 18 month immunization we had a public health nurse tell us he never had 20 words yet and she was going to refer him to a pediatrician and a speech therapist. A mother knows her child and at this point I knew that he was more interested in motor skills than speaking. 6 months on he has hundreds of words and chatters all day. Your instinct will tell you if there us anything to be concerned about and obviously since she was so little it will take a wee bit longer. Try not to worry she is just perfect.
