World's Tiniest Premature Baby Born in England
The world's smallest surviving premature baby, born in London 16 weeks early and weighing only 21.14 ounces, is now six months old and is a healthy nine pounds. Christopher Williams was born November 21 at Whipps Cross Hospital, and is expected to be included in the next edition of the Guinness Book of World Records.
"When I first saw Christopher I just burst out crying," his mother Leona told the Guardian. "He was so tiny that I didn't know how long I would have him for. Every day was a milestone, and every night I prayed that he would make it through the night."
The previous record-holder was James Elgin Gill of Canada, who was born 128 days premature and weighing 21.84 ounces.
Christopher underwent weeks of oxygen therapy and had two hernia operations, spending the first five months of his life in the hospital. But his mother said he is doing very well. "I look at him now and I can't believe he's the same Christopher," Leona Williams told the Guardian. "He's just a bouncing baby boy with the sweetest nature.
"I just want to do everything I can to make sure the rest of his life is easy now."
