The two videos presented here are about life stories: parents of low birth weight babies and a low birth weight baby now aged 25, share with us their experience. They discuss the causes of low birth weight, the hospitalisation, the fears, the role of the family and the life of low birth weight babies as they grow up.

Low birth weight stories

Nicki Blundell, mother of preterm low birth weight twins, Hector and Felix, describes her experience.

 

Laura weighed 5lbs at birth. Now at 25 years old she and her mother, Dr. Paula Stewart, talk about their experience and demonstrate how a loving family makes all the difference.
