A twin due to be medically terminated to save his brother’s life made a surprise arrival – in the toilet bowl. <br /> <br />Mum Corinne Rose, 30, suddenly went into labour and welcomed twin boys, Grayson and Neo Cattanach, while on the loo at 32 weeks along. <br /><br />Corinne was delighted to fall pregnant with the non-identical twins in July 2022 after fearing she couldn't have kids. <br /><br />But the amniotic sac for one of the twins, Neo, burst too soon, and doctors broke the news that he wouldn't make it. <br /><br />To give his twin, Grayson, a fighting chance, Corinne made the tough decision to undergo a medical termination for one of the boys. <br /> <br />But the day before the procedure, Corrine found herself delivering both babies alone in the bathroom on January 19, 2023 – “scooping” them out of the toilet. <br /> <br />The pair went to the neonatal ward and Grayson, who weighed 4lbs 6oz, was discharged after three weeks. <br /><br />Neo, who weighed 2lbs 14oz, has defied all the odds despite doctors fears he ''wouldn't pull through''. <br /><br />He has finally joined his brother at home after being discharged on May 17, 2023 - after spending nearly 13 weeks in hospital. <br /><br />Corrine, a restaurant manager, from Southampton, Hampshire, said: “I still can’t believe it. <br /><br />“It was the morning of the procedure when they both arrived. <br /><br />“I think it was his big bro, Grayson, bringing him into the world. <br /><br />“He was like, ‘not today – Neo is coming out with me.’ <br /><br />“The poor kid’s been through the wringer, but he’s such fighter.” <br /><br />Corinne feared she couldn’t have children due to past health issues and "made peace" with the thought of not having kids. <br /><br />But in 2022, she was delighted to discover she had naturally conceived twins with partner, Will Cattanach, 32, a music producer.<br /><br />Non-identical twins, both babies were growing in separate amniotic sacs in the womb. <br /><br />She said: "Doctors weren't sure if I could conceive - I sort of accepted it.<br /><br />"I wasn't planning to get pregnant, so it came as a huge surprise.<br /><br />"At first I was terrified, especially when I found out it was twins.<br /><br />"But after the initial shock I started to get really excited."<br /><br />When Corinne was 14 weeks along she was forced to call her midwife after feeling as if she had ''peed'' herself while out shopping. <br /><br />Her worried midwife urged her to go to A&E at Princess Anne Hospital, Southampton, Hampshire. <br /><br />A scan revealed her waters had broken - which meant one of the babies' amniotic sacs had burst too soon and was losing fluid vital for healthy foetal development. <br /><br />The baby - which medics identified was Neo - was also diagnosed a catalogue of other health issues include bad lung function, bent limbs and his liver growing in his chest cavity. <br /><br />Doctors broke the news that her baby was unlikely to survive. <br /><br />She continues: “I had to think about what his life was going to be like. <br /><br />“We weighed up all the options and decided a medical termination was the best course of action.<br />
