Baby born with just two tablespoons of blood in her entire body

  • 5 years ago
Little Frankie Morrison had just 35ml of blood when she was born - which is seven time less than the average amount inside a newborn. It meant she had more water than blood inside her body when she was born. The real-life water baby had to immediately be resuscitated by doctors as soon as she was born through an emergency Caesarean section after medics found she was not moving inside her mum's womb. Despite having more water than blood inside her body, and doctors telling her parents Maria Sandars, 32, and Chris Morrison, 33, to expect the worse, Frankie pulled through unscathed. Mum-of-three Maria said staff at Hull Royal Infirmary, East Yorks., even told her and Chris a priest was available to bless Frankie after she was born on October 20 last year.
