Tiny woman delivers ‘one-in-a-million’ baby

AN AMERICAN woman who weighs less than three stone has beaten odds of a million to one to give birth to a healthy baby boy.

Eloysa Vasquez, 38, stands just three feet tall and has to use a wheelchair because she suffers from a condition that makes her bones soft and brittle. But last month baby Timothy was delivered eight weeks prematurely by Caesarean section.

He weighed 3lbs 7oz and did not inherit his mother’s genetic condition, Type 3 osteogenesis imperfecta.
