Baby of the Week: Lucie Olivia Short

THE PARENTS: Kelly Crow (24) works at Forth Valley Royal Hospital and Adam Short (25) is a civil servant. The couple live in Falkirk and got engaged last month. They are set to tie the knot on September 22, 2018.

THE PREGNANCY: Kelly said the pregnancy was fine up until she had to have an induced labour.

THE BIRTH: At 37 weeks and one day Kelly was induced and at 37 weeks and three days little Lucie was born.

THE BABY: Lucie is a happy content wee baby. Mum Kelly said: “She is really bubbly and is always smiling. She now sleeps all the way through the night.” Adam’s five-year-old step-son Aaron adores his new little sister and loves to help look after her.

THE NAME: The couple could not think of a name so went through the baby book and Lucie was discovered. Kelly said: “We gave it a bit of a twist with spelling it ‘ie’ instead of ‘y’.” Kelly always wanted the name Olivia so the couple agreed it would be their child’s middle name.

THANKS: Kelly and Adam would like to thank all the staff at Forth Valley Royal Hospital for their help. A big thank you as well to all their family and friends for all their help and support during the pregnancy and after.
