  But, Alice did survive, and seven weeks later – despite being on the birth control pill, Ormrod became pregnant again.In September 2012, son Gareth was born early also, at 29 weeks. He weighed 2 pounds.
“I was absolutely petrified when I found out I was pregnant again,” Ormrod told the Telegraph. “My (doctor) said I should have a termination; he said it would end up killing me and the baby, and that it wouldn’t be fair to put me through it. But I said, no, straight out."
