Glasgow baby born weighing 1lb and 14oz arrives home nine months later after life-saving transplant

A set of Glasgow parents have welcomed their baby girl home after she spent nine months in hospital after weighing only 1lb and 14oz at birth.

Aria Leigh Foreman was born at just 27 weeks with a rare genetic condition called complete DiGeorge syndrome. Mum, Kayleigh Coyle, was rushed in for an emergency c-section on November 19, 2021 after noticing less movement from her unborn baby.

Kayleigh attended hospital and was asked to return the following day for a growth scan, but was rushed to surgery after medics made a "30 second crash call” when they realised her baby's heart rate was drastically low, reports the Daily Record.
