On 12th April 2026, our little girl Rosie arrived at 25 weeks of pregnancy, 15 weeks early, weighing a tiny 660g.

She is currently in NICU at The Rosie Hospital at Addenbrooks, where she is receiving the best possible care from their high level teams that specialise in saving extremely preterm babies born as small as she is.

We are facing a very long road ahead of us while she remains in hospital to grow, most likely to be for 4 months or so at the very least.

As you all know, Rosie has a big family of brothers and sisters all waiting for her at home, so we are going to be divided between being at hospital with her as much as possible, and still looking after our bigger kiddos.

Lots of people have offered support to us, but there isn’t much practically that can be offered, as our main issues are going to be the cost of travel and accommodation as we split ourselves between two places for the foreseeable future - and obviously the time off work that this will involve.

With encouragement we have set up this page for those of you who have offered to support us at this time.

Please please know that we appreciate the immense outpouring of love more than anything, and we are eternally grateful for every message and kindness for us, our tiny girl, and our family X
