So, instead of placing her on my chest for skin-to-skin contact, the midwife whisked her away to be cleaned up.Weighing just 117 grams, my baby girl was perfect.

Two weeks later, Michael and I said our final goodbyes to Isla at Braintree Crematorium in a private ceremony, just the two of us. I didn’t want to share our last precious moments together with anybody else. I asked my mum to teach me to knit and, hiding myself away in the garden shed, started making capes for other angel babies.Then a relative contacted me to suggest I collect wedding dresses for her to transform into burial gowns.
