“Our baby boy is looking healthy and we simply couldn’t love him anymore already.”
Hollie continued: “To our family, friends and loved ones that have been by our side you know you mean the world to us and we can’t wait until you get to meet him.
“Life throws up the unexpected and can be difficult at times but as they say remember there will always be a happy ending if you are willing to fight for it and he certainly seems to be a fighter... You’ve got this son.”
