Stunned guests at a baby shower could barely believe their eyes when the guest of honour arrived. Before they could even get on with the traditional fun and games there was a surprise for all of them.
For when mum-to-be Becky Biddulph appeared she was cuddling her newborn who arrived four days earlier. She and husband James Biddulph, 32, arrived at the garden bash on June 26 with their little surprise.
And some guests were so shocked they initially mistook Henley for a doll - before they realised that the little boy had decided to arrive two weeks early, on June 22. Becky, who works in care as well as running two businesses and lives in Stoke-on-Trent, with HGV driver James and her two other children, said: "With Henley being born so close to my baby shower, I just thought it would be the most perfect way to introduce him to everyone.
