Bethany Homar, 28, was told there was a high chance her little boy wouldn’t make it when she was rushed for an emergency c-section at 26 weeks and three days.

She had suffered a placental abruption - where the placenta separates from the wall of the uterus before birth - which can be fatal for the baby.

Little Isaiah Gordon was born weighing 1lbs 10z on April 7 this year at Sheffield Children’s Hospital, Sheffield, South Yorkshire.
