This hiccups include deformities like spina Bifida,a birth effect where there is incomplete closing of the back bone and membranes around the spinal cord.Unfortunately most babies born with the condition are normally aborted.
However confident doctors belonging to the United Kingdom have pulled a prowess after operating on an unborn baby with the issue by pulling it out then returning it after successful operation.
On her Facebook post, Bethan Simpson who is the lucky mother says that she decided to try to surgery after a 20-week checkup that revealed a condition that negatively affects the child’s ability to walk.”Our lives were such a rollercoaster for the next few weeks.
We were offered continuing pregnancy, ending pregnancy or a new option called fetal surgery – fixing her before she is born. We had to do it,” Simpson wrote in a Facebook post.
“Sadly, 80 percent of babies in England are terminated when their parents get told their baby has this condition. It’s not a death sentence. She has the same potential as every one of us,” Simpson said. “Yes, there are risks of things going wrong, but please think more about spina bifida. It’s not what it used to be… I feel our baby kick me day in and day out that’s never changed. She’s extra special, she’s part of history and our daughter has shown just how much she deserves this life.”
