When you put it back in spray it with something strong smelling and spray the rest of the piglets too. (Iodene,purple spray, tea tree etc could even be body spray if you've nothing else) not a lot, just a tiny wee scoosh so they all smell the same - this will lessen the chances of it being rejected for smelling different  ;)
Hope it goes well  :-*

Thanks Karen, I did do that and it worked fine, she got her breast milk!
Sadly the piglet didn't make it  :'( . Really don't know wether it was some sort of neurological damage or something else. Being my first such case it's always harder, an I've gone through the usual analysis.
Sad, but as Lillian said earlier - you win some you lose some. So I'll try not to dwell on it for too long.

Thanks for all the support folks  :-*
