IT’S been a difficult week for Millie Radford.
And while she’s been in hospital with her youngest daughter Elodie-Jade, Millie’s mum Sue Radford has been looking after her eldest, Ophelia.
Now that Elodie-Jade is back at home, after battling RSV (Respiratory Syncytial Virus), and Millie took to Instagram to thank her mum for all her help.
In doing so, she also thanked mum-of-22 Sue for helping Ophelia reach an important milestone.
“Ophelia’s had the best week with her nan, grandpops and all her auntie and uncles,” Millie wrote in a post on her Instagram Stories.
She penned the message over a picture Sue had sent her of Ophelia enjoying some food, as she added: “Ladies what lunch”.
“Thank you Mum, you’ve been a massive help – even got Ophelia off the dummy and night time bottle.”
Sue then reposted the picture on the Radford Family‘s Instagram Stories, adding: “Aww she’s been so good.
“Auntie Heidie is really missing her tonight!
“But yay for no more dummy or bottle.”
Millie revealed on Wednesday night that Elodie-Jade has been discharged from hospital, as she shared a picture of the smiley tot in her car seat and writing: “Home time!”
Elodie-Jade was born on the 20th September, weighing 7lb 10z, after the mum Millie announced that she was pregnant with her third child and that they were expecting a baby girl back in May.
Millie, who is the seventh eldest of the 22 Radford kids, also has Ophelia, three, and Chester Bleu, one.
After Millie shared news of Elodie-Jade’s arrival in a post on Instagram, Sue was among the first to comment.
“Aww Millie she’s just so beautiful,” Sue wrote.
“I’m so proud of you you did amazing bringing her into the world.
“Thank you so much for asking me to be with you. Love you Xxx.”
