Tiny baby born weighing 'little more than can of Coke' fighting for her life

A tiny baby the size of a "can of Coke" is fighting for her life after being born 15 weeks early.

Elli Robertson was born weighing just 1lbs 7 oz at 25 weeks on February 22. She was too tiny to survive a C-section leading to her mum Cailtlyn enduring a four-day labour.

The 23-year-old's waters broke unexpectedly on February 18 but doctors were certain that wee Elli would never survive so waited for a natural birth, the Daily Record reports.
