When my daughter’s pregnancy was on the line, it felt like history was repeating itself…

The bump in 1992 was mine; the baby, who would be born the following day, at 29 weeks ’ gestation (“term” is 40 weeks ) was my daughter Rosie .

Like mine, Rosie ’s pregnancy had been textbook up to that point.

Like me, she’d had no warning that things could suddenly shift to red alert, with the baby in her uterus seemingly failing to thrive.

Rosie stayed in hospital from the day she was admitted; the plan was to keep her baby inside until 34 weeks , when there would be the best chance of survival.

Her son, Sol , arrived at 11.30am on a sunny morning (hence his name) Sol was bigger than Rosie 3 lb 5oz and she had been able to take steroids before his birth, to help mature his lungs.

He's now six months old a plump, chuckling, diamond diamond of a boy.
