Woman who suffered nine miscarriages gives birth to healthy baby boy

This is the miracle baby boy who has brought an end to 17 years of heartbreak for one woman.

After suffering nine miscarriages, nurse Catherine Findlow had almost given up hope of ever becoming a mother.

But thanks to staff at Liverpool Women's Hospital, the 41-year-old's dreams have come true with the arrival of Daniel Robert.

Mrs Findlow, who lives in Runcorn, first started trying for a family in her twenties.

After splitting with her first husband, her efforts to have children continued when she met and fell in love with second husband Matt in 2000.

As her 40th birthday approached in July last year Mrs Findlow, who has lost ten babies including twins, began to consider being sterilised.

But doctors carrying out pioneering research into the causes of multiple miscarriage at the hospital discovered 'killer' cells in her uterus were destroying her chances of motherhood.

The cells, known as NK cells, protect against cancer and infection, but if there are too many then too much oxygen is produced which can be toxic to an early pregnancy.

Liverpool Women's Hospital is the only place in the country to treat the rare condition with steroids.

A woman that has gone through so many miscarriages and still persist should be acused of manslaughter (or a variant thereof) because although it isn't intentional, the probability that it might happen is quite known to them.

They are basically killing off babies in the hope that one of them survives.
