Nov 11, 2009: Mini Mom

You've probably heard guys say, "gotta go, the little woman is waiting for me".
Of course that's just a figure of speech for most, but not for Will Herald.
The 5ft 9inch Mr Herald is married to Stacey, who's 2ft 4inches tall.



No problem there, couples mismatched in height aren't all that uncommon.
The problem in pregnancy...



Quote:
The couple met in 2000 while working for a supermarket in their home town and were desperate for a family after marrying in 2004.
But doctors warned Mrs Herald a baby would grow so large inside her tiny body it would eventually crush her organs, strangling her from the inside out.
Mrs Herald said: ‘It broke my heart that I couldn’t have kids. ‘All my life my parents had told me that I could do anything. Then there were these doctors telling me that we couldn’t be a complete family. It really hurt.’
Despite the pleadings of her family, and Doctors, when she got pregnant she decided to go for it. Now they have two girls and is nearly ready to deliver a son. One of the girls has inherited her mother's Osteogenesis Imperfecta, and one hasn't. It remains to be seen if the boy will, or won't.

Am I the only one reading this who gets hung up on the question of bedroom logistics?

Does the guy have any idea how bad it looks in the photo to have his fingers there?

Your answer lies with that giant syringe that's on the couch.

To be fair, I'm sure it's just a brief instant of time captured by the shutter click. The kid was clearly squirming and he was trying to hold her still for the photo.

I'm just trying to figure if her first two were C-Section or not.

I see where she has a vertical scar near her belly button, so it could have just been the world's most radical episiotomy, but those are supposed to be downward between bottom of vagina and anus.

TFA said they were c-sections, yes.
