Woman heartbroken after suffering SEVEN miscarriages finally has a baby thanks to a stitch in her womb and daily aspirin

Samantha Bourner, 33, from Kent, spent a traumatic 12 years trying to start a family with her partner David, 35 (the pair are pictured, right). She suffered seven miscarriages and gave up hope of ever having a child. Doctors diagnosed her with Antiphospholipid syndrome, which increases the chance of blood clots and raises the risk of miscarriage in pregnant women. Doctors prescribed daily aspiring and drugs to stop her

blood clotting. They also put a stitch in her womb to stop it opening too early, so she could carry a baby to term. When she became pregnant again, she was thrilled, and was delighted to hear it was twins. She lost one of the babies at nine weeks old, and it was absorbed back into the womb. On December 3 2014 she gave birth to Noel Arthur Paul (pictured left), and couldn't be happier. She said: 'We are over the moon with Noel, he really is a miracle and I adore him.'
