Baby Neo arrived in toilet bowl hours before he was due to be terminated to save brother's life

A twin due to be medically terminated to save his brother’s life made a surprise arrival – in the toilet bowl. Mum Corinne Rose, 30, suddenly went into labour and welcomed twin boys, Grayson and Neo Cattanach, while on the loo at 32 weeks.

Corinne was delighted to fall pregnant with the non-identical twins in July 2022 after fearing she couldn't have kids. But the amniotic sac for one of the twins, Neo, burst too soon, and doctors broke the news that he wouldn't make it.

To give his twin, Grayson, a fighting chance, Corinne made the tough decision to undergo a medical termination for one of the boys. But the day before the procedure, Corrine found herself delivering both babies alone in the bathroom on January 19, 2023 – “scooping” them out of the toilet.
