Little Fleur Green was just one of the many bonny babies who brought Christmas joy to their parents after being born at Kings Mill hospital on December 25.

Fleur kept her mum Casey Green and hospital staff guessing for a while. When the little sweetheart described by her mum as just like a ‘China doll’ finally arrived, at 6.31am, on Christmas Day, she weighed in at a dainty 6llbs and 4ozs.

“All the midwives and the staff at Kings Mill were brilliant, they really were amazing and looked after us so well. I want to thank them.

Because of the Covid precautions, the couple’s relatives and Fleur’s excited grandparents have not had a chance to meet Fleur yet.

Casey said: "We drove by various houses going home and showed her through windows, but we’re looking forward to when they can meet her properly. They can’t wait!”
