Hannah Buckle, a call centre agent with EDF Energy, came up with a novel idea to raise money for charity.
Colleagues in Fore Hamlet, Ipswich, paid £1 to guess the weight of her baby.
Guesses ranged from 5lb 4oz to 11lb 11oz.  In fact, Darcy Rose-Buckle weighed 9lb 1oz at birth.  The winner, Emma Whiting, also an agent, won a £25 shopping voucher.
The competition raised £100, which was matched by EDF, for the children’s charity, Bliss.
Hannah spent 24 hours in labour and her sister, Sophie, who also works in the call centre, said: ‘Darcy is really, really cute and all the waiting has now paid off.’
