“I’m still here” by Australian Mum Whitney Anderson

I was contacted by young Australian Mum Whitney Anderson who wrote and published her own book in 2026 -  a real-life story written from her unborn baby’s perspective. Whitney described how she was pressured throughout her pregnancy to have an abortion – an unimaginable experience. 

In the pages of the book her unborn baby - diagnosed with spina bifida - speaks to us about his experiences during his time in the womb. 

This is an amazing self-published book which touches the heart.   Please support Whitney by enabling her to spread her message about her experience during her pregnancy.  We could also buy another copy to give to another mother or group.

Whitney told me:

“It's an 80 page book just from the point of view of the baby, based on news I received whilst pregnant with my last child. His name is Bellamy. He was diagnosed with spina bifida while I was pregnant and we were advised he would have no quality of life and termination was offered until birth.

Without receiving support or information on possibilities and receiving just the absolute worst-case scenario they made me think I would be cruel to "make him live”.   But with support from my church and family I gave birth to this miracle who has continued to show up and kick goals and prove that his life is worth something.  This book is to give a voice to those babies, and to be a presence on those mums that they need to hear when given this news.

These babies are not a diagnosis but a life and a person. If you would consider giving it a read and possibly supporting it that would be changing decisions and lives all over and that's what my purpose is. To speak for those who cannot.”
