Every parent-to-be dreams about a ‘perfect’ pregnancy. An uncomplicated delivery, giving birth to a perfectly developed, normal and healthy baby is also part of the expectation.

The possibility that something may go wrong and the baby may arrive just a little too early is something that ‘happens to other people’.
