Liz McClarnon has shared the first glimpse of her newborn son following the arrival of the baby boy with her husband, Peter Cho, after a challenging, years-long fertility journey.
The 44-year-old Atomic Kitten star announced earlier this month that her first child had arrived ahead of schedule. Although the birth was a ‘bit scary,’ she reassured fans that all went well by posting a selfie from her hospital bed giving a thumbs up.
On Thursday, Liz returned to Instagram to share a series of black-and-white photos of her son for the first time, revealing that the day was originally meant to be his due date.
In her caption, she reflected on the ‘overwhelming’ experience of childbirth, admitting she was ‘quite shocked’ when her waters broke much earlier than expected, while also praising the NHS staff for their excellent care.
She said: ‘Today was our little bun’s actual due date. (No, bun isn’t his name). I can’t believe he came so early, over ten years ago.
‘He gave me a quite a shock at 4am when my waters broke. It all got a bit scary when his heart rate dropped but the amazing NHS Staff at our chosen hospital whipped into action.
‘It was overwhelming but they blew us away with their professionalism and care. We are so grateful.’
Liz and Peter met four years ago and began their IVF journey early in their relationship. She explained that both were mindful of her age 40 at the time met-when planning to start a family.
