Harry is Caucasian and was a full-term newborn whose arrival was induced two days before his due date because he had ceased to grow in the womb.
Following a nine-hour labour, Harry was born with the umbilical cord wrapped once around his neck. His colour was purplish and he briefly needed medical attention before being given to his mother to hold. His Apgar score was 7 at one minute, 9 at five minutes, and he finally scored 10 when he was ten minutes old.
Harry weighed 3kg (6lb 10oz) at birth. His full body length was 51cm (197/8 inches) and his head circumference was 34cm (131/4 inches).
