This little baby is called William. and was born with only 28 weeks gestation (7 months). The doctors found that was not getting enough blood flow from the placenta, which meant that he had to be born before his time. Upon arrival in the world, he had to be incubated while a valve in his heart closed and shut off. He was recovering from an early infection so he could be transferred to the intensive care unit.

He was so small, that in his first days completely fit between the palms of his father’s hand. However, in these months since I was born on January 3, has gained weight. Her parents boast that now it is at 2.5kg. “They tell us that he is still very light, but for us it is our stocky monkeytheir parents explain.

Two weeks ago William was finally able to see his home upon being discharged from the hospital. His parents breathe easy and proud to see that his baby is already sleeping in his new crib: “We both cried when I was in the car ready to go home. It was an emotional roller coaster,” they explain.
