Stella Creasy takes baby into Commons chamber for debate on abortion

A mum who was repeatedly offered abortions by doctors because her daughter had TWO rare conditions, has given birth to a healthy ?miracle? baby. See SWNS story SWMDbaby. Doctors warned first-time mum Kimberley James, 24, her unborn baby would not survive after a 12-week scan showed she had swollen in the womb. She was diagnosed with hydrops fetalis, which affects 1,000 pregnancies every year, and the survival rate is just ten per cent. Four weeks later Kimberley was dealt another devastating blow when she was told her the tot also had cystic hygroma which affects one in 8,000 babies and causes defects. She was advised ?at least three or four times? from different doctors that she should have a termination. But Kimberley, of Worcester, decided to trust her gut instinct and go ahead with her pregnancy. After a 13-hour labour, Kimberley and husband Nicholas, 24, welcomed 7lb 6oz Penelope at Worcestershire Royal Hospital on May 9. Incredibly, both Penelope?s life-threatening conditions had disappeared and she was given a completely clean bill of health by stunned doctors.
