A woman who lost her baby twins when she was a teenager is now supporting other grieving mums. Laura Bagley felt isolated and alone when her babies died just 12 weeks into her pregnancy.
Underlying health conditions with her uterus meant doctors had previously warned her she might not carry full term if she ever fell pregnant. So the unplanned pregnancy when she was 17 and studying for her A-levels came as both a shock and a worry for the Chesterfield teenager.
Coupled with the fact she was in an unsupportive relationship at the time, she said, it made her feel alone. "I wasn't planning my pregnancy," she said.
