And as her “perfect” 11-month-old Henry gurgles with delight playing with his rubber bath toys she knows it is the “best decision” she has ever made.
Rosie, 29, discovered at her 20-week scan that her unborn son was likely to have Amniotic Band Syndrome – where strands in the womb entangle a baby’s limbs and inhibit proper growth.
