Baby of the week: Logan Robert Conlin

THE PARENTS: New mum Lauren Carruthers (24) works in the pension sector and dad Simon Conlin (26) is a plumber. The Shieldhill couple are engaged and set to tie the knot next June.

THE PREGNANCY: Lauren described her pregnancy as the easiest nine months ever. She said: “I had no morning sickness or anything like that, I could not have asked for a better first pregnancy.”

THE BIRTH: Logan arrived four days early and Lauren said she couldn’t complain as the birth was fairly quick and straightforward.

THE BABY: Logan sleeps well and does not really cry according to his mum. She said: “He is very happy and content.”

THE NAME: The couple had a short list of names they liked and eventually shortened it to just two names. When Logan was born both parents agreed he suited Logan more than the other name on offer. Robert is after Simon’s grandad.

THANKS: Lauren and Simon would like to say a big thank you to their mums, Alison Conlin and Lorraine Robinson, for all their help during the pregnancy and the birth. Lauren said: “Their help was brilliant and appreciated.”
