heel prick

[keli]

The MW is coming to do Coopers heel prick test soon He's had to have 3 already due to jaudice. It really upsets me when he cries he sounds like he's being tortured!

Have one of these

Becky had 9 holes in her heels and 1 on her head at one point from all the blood tests, all gone now!

poor thing

I remember lil miss' hands were literally black and blue from all the blood the took... she'd fall asleep on my boob and the SCBU people would rub her hands for her to wake up and she'd scream in pain if we touched them....

I hate it when they have them. My Angel calmed down very quick so her blood flow slowed down. MW kept squeezing her leg to force it out!
My nephew had a ton done too as he was 3 months premature and had very bad jaundice!
