Even though she hasn’t met everyone yet the amount of love being shown for her is unreal, the pandemic as made everyone realise how precious life is. I had a lot of support through my pregnancy from midwife and hospital appointments and I feel so blessed to have a perfect healthy baby." Photo: Frankie Thomas

Claire Gibbons, said: "Amelia Florence born 10/11/2020
The hardest part has been Amelia not being able to meet friends and family, especially grandparents and uncles & aunties. On the positive side, no visitors has meant not worrying about the untidy house!
It’s also been fun to document my new mum in lockdown journey on Instagram @me.and.babyg" Photo: Claire Gibbons

Kirsty Davis, said: "Darcy Annette Davis born 4/02/21 it's hard with not having friends & family come over and see them face to face but you have to keep them safe and technology is amazing these days and can facetime etc!
Like any new parent you are finding your bearings and with covid-19 I think it gives you more time with the little one and learn their tricks etc! Which has done us a favour before sharing them to soon, than you would if the restrictions weren't in place! If that makes sense.
Chesterfield Royal Hospital NHS FT & Royal Primary Care maternity unit was amazing! They have been given a lot slack and I was worried with reading all the comments with my partner not being allowed to be there! But everyone experience is different but we couldn't praise them enough and was amazing with us! He was there from start to finish." Photo: Kirsty Davis
