A mum has shared her emotional pain after her daughter was born without a heartbeat, hoping to raise awareness on World Prematurity Day.
Helen Hudson, 40, was 20 weeks pregnant when one of her twin babies, Beatrice, tragically passed away. Despite this, she carried both children for a further eight weeks before undergoing an emergency caesarean.
Her other baby, Emmeline, faced many health complications in the first few months of her life due to being premature after she was born without a heartbeat. Regardless, Helen says the family are making up for all the lost time.
