Stella had her first blood test on Friday after our visit to the specialist re her eczema. The Medlab ladies were great but couldn't find a vein in her arm so had to do the finger prick and eke the blood out that way. Stella had a wee cry at the beginning but after that sucked on her dummy while watching what was going on very intently. Luckily they got what they needed from only one finger prick. Stella even got a Bravery Award, here she is with her certificate. We go back next week to the specialist to see what the results are, he seemed positive that he would be able to help so fingers crossed the need to scratch will lessen over time.
