Little Oliver Kenneth Ford was so eager to see the world he arrived seven weeks early, weighing just 4lb 1oz.

Proud mum Georgia Smith, from Little Clacton, sent us these special pictures of her new arrival, who was born in Colchester Hospital.

Her much-loved baby was born on an appropriate day - Valentine’s Day.

* Have you got a newborn baby in your house?

We’re on the lookout for proud parents who might like to share pictures of their little ones with our readers.

From sleeping angels to smiling cherubs, we love seeing them all and would like to print photos in our paper and online.
