Grieving mother spends FIFTEEN days bonding with body of her stillborn son as she changes his nappy, rocks him and reads to him before finally saying goodbye

Following a difficult pregnancy, Lynsey Bell began haemorrhaging just minutes after doctors revealed baby Rory would not come into the world alive. 


After plucking up the courage to hold Rory when she awoke from a coma two days later, Mrs Bell, 32, and her husband Mark, resolved to make the most of the short time she had with their little boy. The grieving couple, from Newcastle-upon-Tyne (pictured right with Rory) changed his nappy, rocked him in their arms, read him stories and bathed him to help grow a bond and say goodbye.
