A micro‑preemie baby born at just 23 weeks in Navi Mumbai has defied the odds after receiving lifesaving care from a specialised neonatal team. Extremely premature infants face critical challenges including underdeveloped lungs, weak immunity, and difficulty feeding, making their survival particularly difficult so early in pregnancy. With continuous respiratory support, careful infection prevention, meticulous monitoring, and dedicated kangaroo care, the baby made remarkable progress over weeks of intensive care. Dr. Anish Pillai, Lead Consultant Neonatology and Paediatrics at Motherhood Hospitals, Kharghar in Navi Mumbai, credits the multidisciplinary team’s expertise and round‑the‑clock care for this medical success story.
