This little baby actually managed to survive an incredibly rare surgery that came about as a result of doctors finding a small hole within its spine during an ultrasound!

It isn't so much a medical miracle that this baby was born that caught the attention of news sites and others around the world but the fact that the baby was born on a palindrome date and then some!

You probably all know that a baby grows within the womb of its mother, however, this lady actually gave birth to a baby girl that grew entirely OUTSIDE of the womb. The baby, born in Russia was actually found within the mothers abdominal cavity and had to be removed via C-section and weighed less than 5lbs! Typically no one survives this, but these two did!

Miracle Twins

Not only did this lady give birth to twins who were born at just 25 weeks into her pregnancy but they came a year after a devastating miscarriage! It looked like this term could be just as devastating as she suffered an issue with her uterine wall and therefore the babies needed to be born as quickly as possible. Although they aren't past the danger zone yet, the fact they remain alive to this day is a miracle in itself.

Mississippi Quintuplets

Having more than one child at a time can be dangerous for both the mother and the kids, especially when you're talking about 5! These quintuplets were born at just 28 weeks but all came out in good health, even making it home before their mother could! Some people might go crazy with 5 kids, but this couple felt as though it was a miracle after two miscarriages and and three insemination cycles.

No Ovaries

This miracle baby might have saved his mother's life after she was forced to have her ovaries removed as a result of cancer. She froze her eggs between surgeries and only had two possible chances of having a baby as only two embryos were suitable for the treatment. The first attempt ended horribly with a miscarriage but her final attempt brought her this bundle of happiness.

Twins Without Ovaries

Not to try and outdo the previous mother, but this lady also had her ovaries removed but chose to start fertility treatment before she underwent her chemotherapy. After three attempts they found out that the process had worked and somehow the one embryo they had placed in her uterus had split, meaning she ended up giving birth to MIRACLE identical twins.

Infertile Pregnancy

Although a 30 year old woman from Japan was told she was actually infertile, she still ended up giving birth to a baby back in 2012 after surgeons re-implanted ovarian tissue that they had treated. Although this process was just experimental it could be a sign that there is a new, less stressful and less painful process for woman with ovarian issues to have to go through.

Implanted Ovary Tissue

Similarly to the previous point, this Dubai resident managed to give birth to her miracle baby using ovarian tissue that was taken from her when she was just eight years old! The ovarian tissue was removed as she was diagnosed with cancer at a very young age and it was stored in liquid nitrogen for the years in between! This could be the next step in protecting mothers!

At the age of 19, the mother in this image, Hayley Haynes was informed that she would never be able to have children as she didn't have a womb, any ovaries or any fallopian tubes!

She managed to birth twins after IVF.

Uterus Transplant

Looking at this little one you would never imagine she went through a slightly different birth would you?

They clearly knew the baby was a miracle as they named her Tianci which means gift from heaven.

Although this technique has been described as quite controversial across the scientific community (it's only been approved in the UK) a baby was finally born using it recently. It's meant to help parents with rare genetic mutations still give birth to children that they are ACTUALLY related to! I wonder how long it'll take for this to be approved worldwide.

I know what you're thinking, that's an old lady and not a baby right? Yes, but her story is one that can only be described as a miracle. On the 29th April 1945, Eva Clarke was born within the Mauthausen Concentration Camp, it doesn't sound very lucky does it? But she was actually born THE DAY AFTER the gas chambers were destroyed and a week before it was liberated. Any earlier and her life could've been at risk!

Jesus Christ

If you're a religious person then you'll know that Jesus Christ was a man made of miracles, yet one humble enough to have led an entire religious group. We all know the story by now, Jesus was born following a miraculous conception of as he was conceived by the holy spirit within Mary's womb and not that of a human father. Will there ever be a miracle greater than this?
