“It’s taken us six years to get to where we are today. I’ve had an ectopic pregnancy, a miscarriage, two rounds of IVF and we’re finally here,” she said.

“She’s absolutely gorgeous. Holding the baby for the first time will mean everything to me, especially with Andy by my side as well.”

Louise said that every time she hears a woman screaming in labour, she grabs her privates and jokes: “Argh! My Mary!”
