Lucy Letby asked in messages shown to the court if she needed to be worried by a doctor's questioning.

A nurse who is accused of murdering seven babies asked a colleague if she should be "worried" hours after her alleged final attack on an infant, a court has heard.

A trial at Manchester Crown Court heard how doctors were "content" with Child Q - a premature baby boy - until the morning of 25 June 2016. Prosecutors said Ms Letby caused his collapse with an injection of air and a clear fluid, which could have been saline or water, into his stomach.In a statement read to the jury, the father said: "I got to the main door to the unit and I was stopped from gaining access to room one, I was told that there was nothing to worry about, that he had a chest infection and they wanted to make sure he was suitable for a visit.

A nursing note from Ms Letby, who was Child Q's designated nurse that day, said "apologies were given" to the parents for not informing them of their son's collapse. The court previously heard that, after the deaths of triplet brothers Child O and P on 23 and 24 June respectively, Dr John Gibbs had become "concerned" about Ms Letby's presence on the unit.Lucy Letby is accused of murdering and attempting to murder babies on a neo-natal ward
