An Australian moms cuddles brought her premature baby to life after doctors declared him dead, she says.
Kate Ogg gave birth to twins, Jamie and Emily, in 2010, but doctors told her only Emily survived. She asked to hold Jamie, and ordered her husband, David, to join her shirtless in bed, hoping to give their boy some warmth, the Daily Mail reported.
Cradled against his moms skin, Jamie started moving, Ogg said.
If we had let the doctor walk out of the room with him, Jamie would have been dead, she said.
Jamies heart rate and breathing slowed, but after 20 minutes of struggling to improve the newborns vitals, doctors gave up and told the new parents that Jamie wasnt going to make it, she said.
The doctors gave the devastated couple Jamie for a goodbye cuddle.
We had tried for years to have kids and I felt so guilty. I just wanted to cuddle him. I unwrapped him and ordered my husband to take his shirt off and climb into the bed, she said. He was cold and I just wanted him to be warm.
