If I’m reading correctly; it’s implying she added the word “bile”, it appears as though she changed it.
these were LL's and Dr Harkness's notes -12:04pm
Mr Johnson says Letby's nursing notes for Child E, as read by Letby during the break, do not record blood in the nappy.
Letby says she could not recall her notes specifically at this time.
Mr Johnson reads about what other medical staff observed following Child E's collapse.
Dr David Harkness recorded, for Child E's observations following the collapse, 'kind of strange purple patches that appeared on the outside of his tummy'. Letby says it was purple, but not patches.
Letby said the other parts were 'more pale' than the pink described by Dr Harkness.
Dr Harkness said he'd only ever seen it before with Child A.
Letby disagrees. She says it was "not the same".
Asked to explain the differences between the two, Letby says it was a "solid block of purpleness" for Child E, and a "more mottled look" for Child A.
Letby agrees it was over the abdomen, but disagrees the purple patches moved around.

So no mention of blood in the nappy either.12:04pm

Exactly this ^^^
Seems as though she can’t make up her mind on this one. First the mothers timing, the bile, the nappy and now the colour on the abdomen; quite in contrast with what she’s said previously.12:16pm
Letby is asked to read her retrospective nursing note for Child E, which described Child E's collapse and subsequent decline until he died in his parents' arms at 1.40am.
The note would have been made with reference to medical notes, Letby tells the court.
Letby is asked to look at an observation chart and a blood gas chart.
Letby says when things are going on, it would be standard practice to write, also, on the back of handover sheets or spare bits of paper.
Letby is asked about a "purple band" of discolouration she had recorded for Child E. In her police interview, Letby accepts struggling to recall the size of it at that time.
Mr Johnson says for May 5's evidence, Letby said it was a "red horizontal banding across his abdomen", and only on the abdomen.
Letby agrees with Dr Harkness it was on the abdomen, but does not agree with Dr Harkness's observation it was patches.

This just sounds desperate now, to me.
