But she survived against the odds and now seven months old and 11lb is home with parents Lauren and James, both 24, in Northants.

Lauren said: “It was definitely the scariest experience of my life as we weren’t sure if she was going to make it at first.

“She was so tiny, indescribable really and was on a ventilator for the first month of her life.

“We couldn’t hold Poppy for over a week when she was first born.

“All we could do was make sure our hands were washed and sanitised so we could slip our hand in the doors of the incubator and touch her teenie tiny hands.

“The wait felt like forever.

“All we wanted to do was hold our precious girl.”
