Incredible! Baby Lynlee is 'lucky to be alive' after being born TWICE

This is an incredible story.

When you find out you are pregnant, the last thing anyone ever expects is for something to be seriously wrong with the unborn baby.

But, sadly, this is exactly what happened to Margaret Doemer who, at her 16-week scan, was told that her daughter had a tumour growing out of her tailbone which was robbing her blood supply.

In order to give her little girl a chance at life, Margaret agreed to life-saving foetal surgery in Texas. 

Shockingly, this required removing Lynlee from the womb so that doctors could perform a five-hour surgery. 

The little baby was then placed back in the uterus and her mum was put on bed rest for the remainder of her pregnancy.

Unfortunately, however, the tumour kept growing, and Lynlee was then born again at 36 weeks.

Thankfully, despite requiring more surgery at eight-days-old, she is said to be doing well.
