WE WON'T DROP THE BABY

Both Laurence and Adele have cerebral palsy and they were criticised by doctors for being irresponsible when they had their first son
Tom.


Adele was determined to have a natural birth the second time around – even though their condition is due to their own difficult births.


She ended up having a C-Section in the end, but only after 18 hours of labor! They had a lovely healthy son named Jamie.
