| One-pound baby defies the odds |
| 2006-06-13 |
| So tiny that she fitted in her mother's hand, Ruby Angel Dunn is one of the smallest babies ever to be born in Britain. Weighing less than a 1lb at birth, doctors warned her parents Kerry and Craig that she may not survive. And even if Ruby did pull through, the couple were told to prepare for their daughter developing sight or brain problems. Four months on, the baby girl has defied the odds and astounded medics with her progress. Tests this week at Southmead Hospital in Bristol where she was born show that Ruby is in perfect health. . . . Sweet. You go, er, baby girl! |
