Knots in the cord can restrict blood flow and oxygen to the baby, and put them at risk of serious harm or in severe cases, stillbirth.
Lauren told New magazine: "No one knew about the knots in the cord, all we've been told is that it's very uncommon to have two knots.
"I was a low-risk pregnancy. There was no sign of any problems. A few hours before she was born, she was going to be absolutely fine, that's what it is so heartbreaking."

"It sometimes feels like she's still there, it's weird. My body feels like it's unsettled, like it's missing a newborn."
