Expectant father David Cameron has enjoyed a "baby bounce" in the polls following the announcement that his wife Sam is pregnant.
In the seven days since the last News of the World ICM survey, support for the Conservatives has risen by one point to 39, while Labour dropped 1% to 31. The Lib Dems remain on 19.
If the figures were turned into votes at the General Election, it would give the Tories 309 seats - 44 more than Labour.
