Baby Harper weighed 11.3 ounces, less than a can of soda, when she was born four months early this summer at Covenant Medical Center in Saginaw, Mich. “She’s the smallest baby that we’ve ever resuscitated at Covenant,” said Dr. Martin Nwanko, Pediatrix-affiliated neonatologist. “When babies this small ever make it out, they usually come with long-term neurological deficits,” he said.
