To ask for a spoken word poem "This Baby"pleas

About 5+ years ago someone on mumsnet linked to a spoken word poem on youtube. It was written by a mum with an English accent about her baby. It featured the words "But ...this baby" and was very sweet.

I'd like to listen/watch it again and the bits I remember aren't unique enough to help with Googling.

Can anyone help me find it please?

I might be way off, but there's a poet called Hollie McNish who writes a lot about motherhood and babies. That particular poem doesn't ring a bell with me though. Here's her YouTube channel: youtube.com/user/holliemcnish

Is it a Pam Ayres poem? I vaguely remember her doing a poem about how your own baby is so much better than all the other babies. Will try to find it.

this is it:
My baby's eyes are bluer than yours,
He's got more teeth and he's bigger,
He's ever so bright
And he sleeps through the night
And of our two, I'd say mine is bigger.
I swear it's the truth
Mine's cutting a tooth
And he's obviously going to be tall.
No, it's hard to explain,
Now I've looked at your Wayne,
Why you bothered to have one at all.

not exactly sweet though!
