DRY RIDGE, KY – The world’s smallest mother is soon expecting her third child!
Stacey Herald, 35, is only 2 feet and 4 inches tall. Although she seems much too small for it to be biologically possible, she is 30 weeks pregnant with her third child!
Herald had been told by doctors in the past that a baby would grow too big inside her frame and eventually crush her organs, but she proved them wrong.
“They all told me that I would die. They begged me not to have a baby. Even my mother said,’ You know you won’t survive right?’” said Herald. “I told her: ‘It’s a miracle that I am here, that I have life, why couldn’t this be a miracle too?’”
Both daughters were born via caesarean section, but only her first daughter inherited Herald’s condition, osteogenesis imperfecta, which causes brittle bones and underdeveloped lungs. Herald is now preparing for her third C-section, as the baby is already half her size!
Although Herald admits to being extremely uncomfortable, she said, “We didn’t plan to have more than two kids, we just think that they’re a great GIFT to the world, and when I look at them I see Will and I feel so full of love, it’s tough not to want more.”
