Sarah
My complications started when I was 17 weeks pregnant - my waters ruptured around Josh. I was pregnant with twins and the risks were mounting. It was decided to put me on bed rest; I spent 7 weeks attending the day ward twice a week and monitoring my vitals at home – pulse and temperature every 4 hours to look for signs of infection.

Sarah D
In 2025, Baby Hugh arrived early. Mum Sarah recalls, "It was three days before I held Hugh, tiny and still attached to many machines. What a magical moment this was, not at all like it is in the movies. In that moment and those that followed, nothing else mattered." Read Sarah's full story here.
