			<description><![CDATA[ I'm going to make this my last entry... Daisy is now 3 weeks and 2 days old, and I'm typing this left handed while she feeds.<br><br>I lose hours of everyday just watching her, I love the faces she pulls in her sleep and when she stretches, and just watching this little person grow. In the last 2 days she has started to smile and it has got to be one of the most beautiful things, seeing your baby smile back at you for the first time (or maybe the first few hundred times)!<!--EZCODE EMOTICON... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ SD (or maybe I should call him Daisy's dad) came over for a visit last night. Usually in the evenings Daisy wants to feed almost constantly and even if grandma and grandpa who see her nearly everyday hold her she still wants to come back to me and graze. <br><br>With SD however, she slept in his arms for 3 hours and then woke up happy and just lay in his arms for a bit longer before deciding she wanted a feed! Even though he's only seen her 3 times since she was born it was like she already... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ SD rang me on Monday night, I had only sent him a text message to let him know Daisy had been born (he knew I was in labour on Sunday though). He didn't really sound like himself - he was very quiet and the conversation was rather stilted. I told him if he wanted to come and see us at the hospital, I could make sure I didn't have any other visitors or he could come outside of visiting hours. He said he'd call me in the next day or two.<br><br>He rang on Tuesday night and I was with the... ]]></description>
