A mum saved her unborn baby after not feeling him move for two days before making an 'agonising' choice to give birth three months prematurely. Jordyn Smith, 30, couldn't feel her unborn baby Jay move inside her over a weekend, so rushed to hospital to get checked out.
Doctors discovered he was in distress because his heartbeat was faint, and asked Jordyn and husband Eric, 32, to make a decision about his future. They said they could perform and emergency c-section - but at 26 weeks he was so small he'd only have an eight per cent chance of survival.
Or they could leave him inside to grow bigger - but his chances of survival were even smaller. The couple opted to give birth immediately - and Jay, now 13 months, was born less than 24 hours later, weighing just 14.8 ounces - less than 1lb.
