Baby Boy Born at 21 Weeks Has Set Guinness Record for Prematurity
Briefly

Nash Keen was born weighing just 10 ounces at 21 weeks gestation, making him the world's most premature baby. Despite early concerns about survival, he recently celebrated his first birthday. His mother, Mollie Keen, expresses immense joy in witnessing his growth. The pregnancy faced challenges, including the loss of a previous baby. Doctors initially feared Nash's survival due to his size and age, but he surpassed the gestational milestone necessary for NICU intervention, which was crucial for his survival and medical care.
"I'm really, really, really enjoying my time with Nash and just not taking a single moment for granted. Celebrating him and watching him grow has been the greatest joy of my life, honestly."
"We were devastated. We thought we were going through the exact same thing, and we thought we were going to lose this baby. At that point, I didn't know what I could do to turn things around."
"Sometimes babies born at 21 weeks are just too small for even our tiniest breathing tubes and intravenous lines."
