• Baby Born Two Days After Mom's Death

  There's no avoiding the horrors of this story. A woman has died. A mom will never get to see her baby girl.  And yet, there's something beautiful about the story of little Aya Jayne Soliman (OK, beautiful and total sob, melt-down inducing).  Her mother was forty-one, a former skating champion, who always wanted to be a mother. When she collapsed from a brain hemmorhage at twenty-five weeks pregnant, she could have lost that chance. But doctors decided to keep her alive for two more days, to give her baby girl a chance at life. Read More...

• Sad Update: Baby Never Really 'Came Back to Life'

  A premature baby who was pronounced stillborn, put in the morgue, and then discovered moving and breathing five hours later died on Tuesday and was buried the same day. Since the baby's death, a leading Jerusalem neonatologist has shed new light on the situation, completely contradicting the hospital director's claims that this was a "medical miracle." According to Arthur Eidelman, the baby, named Bana Hiba, did not die and come back to life, as doctors at the Western Galilee Hospital asserted.   Read More...

• Postal Worker Saves Baby's Life

  Things you do not expect to receive in the mail: your baby—who was supposed to be in the same room as you. But, in a tale that gives a whole new meaning to the word “serendipity,” that is precisely what an Albany mother received from her postal worker yesterday morning. Lisa Harrell was walking up to the mother’s house to deliver the mail when she looked up and saw a baby in a second-story window. At that instant, the little girl tumbled 20 feet and landed right in Harrell’s arms—arms which only happened to be there because of a last-minute special delivery on that street. Read More...

• I'm Going Off The Rails On A Baby Train: Newborn Accidentally Flushed

  When our second child was born my wife wasn’t in a sterilized hospital delivery room surrounded by doctors, nurses, and sweet numbling elixer of a well placed epidural she was squatting over the toilet in our newly renovated upstairs bathroom surrounded by tubes of toothpaste squeezed in the middle, Q-Tips and a can of Lysol. This was not a planned home delivery, but babies come out when their ready to come out and there’s not a damn thing you can do to stop them or slow them down. Read More...
