Baby of the week: Grangemouth tot Freddie Duncan

Mum Lauren Buchanan is a line operator at Bakkavor Salads, while dad Sandy Duncan is hygiene team leader at Bakkavor Salads. Freddie has a big brother, Finn, who will be two in November. The family live in Grangemouth.

Mum said the pregnancy was great from start to finish and she only had a little heartburn. When it came to the birth she said it was very quick. She was only in labour for around six hours from start to finish.

Mum and dad chose the name Freddie as it reminded Sandy of his dad who sadly passed away when he was around seven years old. His middle names are after Lauren’s granda and papa.

Freddie is full of beans, always smiling and giggling away.

His proud grandparents are Robert Buchanan, Shirley Buchanan and Julie Forrest.

Mum and dad would like to thank the midwife looking after them whilst they were in the labour ward at the hospital. Mum said: “She was brilliant from start to finish. I can’t remember her name unfortunately.”
