  • I just watched this video after two mos. My lil girl was born on 11/23/2011 and she weighed 2 lbs 8 oz and was 11 weeks early. It was a struggle and she fought hard to survive! She is now almost 8 lbs and getting healthier everyday. It is a funny thing, this thing called life. Most of us take it for granted; my little one clings to it every day and strives to make the most of it! Will you as well?

  • Thank you for sharing this utterly amazing story with us all. My twin boys were born at 30 weeks, now very large very noisy 11 year olds! I wish all of you the very best :)

  • One of the most beautiful videos that I've ever seen in my life!!!!!

  • What a beautifull video your son will love this when he is older, thanks for sharing this with the world and good luck to your beautifull family =)

  • just beautiful. what a lovely video to look back on in years to come, and to show zachary too. Im delighted everything worked out so well for you in the end, as for so many it does not. congratulations guys. just beautiful x

  • I break down in tears every single time I watch this. May God bless your baby boy, he is simply a beautiful gift from god. I am currently 29 weeks pregnant with my first baby and I cant imagine how heartbreaking it must be for any parent to experience this. Im glad that he is doing great. You and your wife are both very strong individuals.

  • Omg this is so beautiful.

  • He's Gorgeous. 

  • he is a strong baby. i'm touched to see the boy when he was holding his mother's finger, shows he was so scared sleeping in there alone. but he made it...what a miracles..

  • 6:34 cause the baby was rapped up like that ,i thought he died i was going to cry omg :o !!

  • So many have so much in common. Ours was born 11/23/11. Her name is Ahsha which is Sanskrit for HOPE. God Bless You! Great video

  • i havent cried that hard in a long time such a beautiful story my son was born at 26 weeks he is 3 now and doing fabulously well done on such a beautiful strong baby boy ..... just beautiful!

  • Crying like a freak seeing first kangaroo cuddles with Mum.

  • Hi lovely story. My second child was taken by C-Section at 38 weeks. My water didn't break but I was EXTREMELY low on amniotic fluid so my OBGYN said I had to have a C-Section ASAP as in immediately as soon as she discovered it. I was just curious how it was possible for your baby to survive for so long with no amniotic fluid. Forgive me if I'm ignorant, just going by what I experienced myself. Tell me the beautiful story!

  • Oh wow, This made me cry! Such an amazing story. Such fantastic supporting family. Bless you all xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

  • what a great story! I had PPROM at 26 weeks and my twins were born 8 days later. I was going crazy in the hospital for that long, I have no idea how you made it 11 weeks! :)

  • I cried :( I'm so sensitive

  • Its so little and cute!

  • Glad he is doing great, God bless!

  • @breanna1141 And can you make a video of him now?

  • hi, ur vid z so inspiring! i just have 30 week preemie on this 31st may. i'll b happy if u'll tell me something more about his weight loss in earliar days n how much was his average weight gain later. i'm much concerned about that. my baby girl was just 1 kg at birth. i'll be grateful if u'll share that info directly or in any video. thnx!

  • Thank you so much for this video! I am in the hospital now at 26 weeks, 3 days. My waters broke at 14 weeks and I was given no hope at the time. I loved watching this. I'm just curious what hospital you were in? I'm in Abbot Northwestern in Minneapolis

  • Comment removed

  • Omg this video is so touching. Im sitting here with tears in my eyes. I am in my 30th week of pregnancy with my second son. This would have been so hard on you, your family and your little one. You are all incredibly strong! I hope your son is doing well x

  • sweet :) I just came back to my hospital room from the NICU, my beautiful little angel was born 62 hrs ago weighing only 2lbs 12oz, my water broke 2 weeks before, and it has been a long stay indeed! (with more to come, cuz I won't leave her w/out her) I heard from a few nurses here about women who held out over 10 weeks and it blew my mind... wow! you're my hero, mama, excellent job. :) how long did he have to stay in the hospital? Good luck to your family! inspiring story for me :))

  • omg he is so small and so cute im just a little sad to see all those wires around him. how the little one now? is he doing well?

  • My duaghter was born at 27.5 weeks and is now 14 months old. She was I'm guessing born around the same time your son was. I can remember the first time holding her and I'm not sure whether I showed emotion or not. I was probably out of tears, but I absolutely loved it. But I did her birthday video with the same song by Mercy Me and our daughter is actually gettting ready to be a big sister. This time we are having a boy.

  • do anyone here knows this song? whats the name of this singer plz? ty

  • GOD BLESS YOU ALL!!! AND THE LIL ANGEL THAT GOD GIVE YOU :)

  • cute baby,god bless

  • 4:15 is one of the most touching moments I have ever seen in my life, mummies face when she is handed her precious baby, so beautiful!

  • Absolutely amazing how strong a tiny little preemie can be. My son was born one day short of 34 weeks. He was 4lbs 6 oz. The hardest part for me was having to leave him the hospital was almost 2 hours from home. He is going to be 7 on the 26th of this month. He amazes me every day.

  • I was just looking for pics of early babies since one of my relatives just gave birth to quads at 30 weeks, and your video popped up. What an amazing story to come across...your video has me in tears. Many blessings and congratulations, I am sure he is bringing you so much joy! Thanks for sharing!

  • beautiful photos! Congrats :)

  • He is just beautiful... My daughter was born at 24 weeks. She was born weighing 1lb 2oz.. She is now 14 years old and a beautiful, healthy, wonderful blessing to all that she meets.. I pray for your son.. That you have many more wonderful videos to post. God Bless You...

  • Hello Lonny and Deanne,

    My name is Adam, and my wife Ginny and I just experienced the EXACT same thing as you all - we were PPROM at exactly 20 weeks, and we made it 11 weeks 1 day - and our son was born just two days ago... so we're in for a long journey as well!

    But your video was incredible, and brought tears to my eyes since your story mirrors ours almost exactly. I would love to hear how your son is doing now.

    God Bless,

    Adam and Ginny (from Houston, TX)

  • thanks for your comments! yes Zac is doing great. he is now 11 months and is a total monster in the house. i couldnt of asked for things to be any better! how is your little one?

  • @LonnyandDeanne Thanks!! Our son is doing fine for a 31 week old premie... He's currently on a CPAP, but only at low pressures (3) and with only room air... My wife was just discharged yesterday and is now home for the first time in over 7 weeks!! So we're handling things okay! :)

  • Great video. I can answer for Adam and Ginny that their boy is doing wonderfully. We met Adam and Ginny while they were on bed rest. Our baby was born at 29 weeks and should be released from the hospital in the next 1-2 weeks.

  • @LonnyandDeanne Dear Lonnie and Deanne,

    My sincere apologies for not commenting sooner... our "little" guy ended up being not so little - he's now 13 months old and is in the 75th percentile for both height and weight for his actual (not adjusted) age... the doctors can't believe he's normal in every aspect after being born 2 months prematurely.

    God bless,

    Adam and Ginny (now from Columbus, OH)

  • He is soo beautiful..! yur have been blessed..!

  • Thank you for the inspiration. My water broke at 14 weeks. I'm now 17 weeks and still hanging on. Beautiful video. May God grant you health and happiness.

  • Oh my goodness. I am so grateful for this posting. Thank you for shar

  • Thank you for this video. My daughter was born at 28 weeks also, and we had to use a container for her bath. It was a very scarey time. She was born Feb. 5, and next year we are walking together in the March of Dimes. I'm a Christian's and a lot of Christian's pray for things like this not to happen to them, but having this happen was a major blessing. If we always prayed for God to keep us from these things, we would never be able to put ourselves in another person's shoes. Thank you.

  • Beautiful film! Thank you for sharing....so good to see so much hope. I am 31 weeks now and she will be here soon....I am scared, but this gave me hope! Be so blessed, Greetings Elze (Netherlands)

  • your baby truely is an angel from heaven. And your story is beautiful.

  • hes a miracle baby...it makes me worry less to have my twin boys i always worry that they may not make it cause of how tiny they might be but seeing that yours has survived and is doing good gives me hope

  • Your story is amazing, i also had a premature baby boy who was 2lb 5oz, such little fighters these babies can be. Hope you guys are all well. :)

  • aww hes precious, this video got me all emotional =]

  • i love your story n it made me so sentimental.. god bless him he is beautiful. god bless him.

  • thank yo... he just came home and we are excited to spend this christmas together as a family!

  • beautiful video! I'm 29 weeks and holding on with modified bedrest right now. I pray all is going well for Zacharay.

  • Thank you for sharing your beautiful story. What a loving family you have, such a blessed little baby to have you all. I am a Midwife and it really helped me to see the experience of premature birth through the eyes of a mother and her family.  You have opened my eyes, thank you.

  • your welcome!

  • This is awesome tonight I am trying to talk someone out of an induced abortion because of this she is 16 weeks! Any suggestions?? She thinks I am judging her I just know ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE!!

  • Im very sorry that she is going through this. When Leanne's water first ruptured the doctors also asked if we wanted to choose an abortion (which we dont believe in). We declined just leaving it in Gods hands. If she wants to contact us we would love to answer any questions about our experience. After 80 days on bed rest and daily conversations with some of the finest doctors, we became pretty educated on PPROM

  • just be supportive , this is out of your hands , but i think prayer is what gets us all through tough times.

  • Thank You for sharing your experience and handsome little boy ,i have a zachary elijah james but he is 16 yrs old now and i had issues with him and his older brother , so i know the roller coaster rides of how things are. i look forward to the video when you share his home coming:)

    May God continue to Bless your family

    Happy THanksgiving

  • Thank You!
