A baby boy weighing just 268 grams (9.45 oz) at birth was sent home after months in a Tokyo hospital, the smallest surviving male baby in the world, Keio University hospital said.
The boy was born through Caesarean-section last August after he failed to gain weight during the pregnancy and doctors feared his life was in danger doctors feared his life was in danger
I can't recall if a boy or a girl...but they lived.
Back then...that was about the smallest..that we could treat.
About 24-25 week gestation...was the limit..on us helping.
I'd guess things are different now.
I dunno...don't work in a Neo anymore...
It also said Einstein was very low birth weight and people thought he would be retarded.
He may not have been retarded but he was autistic...a serious brain disorder.
