It was the best new year’s gift Mallory Wilson could have gotten, a beautiful baby girl.
Miracle Faith is 19-and-a-half inches, and weighs 5-pounds, 6-ounces. The first baby of the new year born at John Peter Smith Hospital in Fort Worth.
The newborn was sleeping as we spoke to her parents.
"It is a funny story because I didn’t find out about Miracle until I was 27 weeks pregnant," said Mallory Wilson. "The only reason I went to get checked out is I was feeling movements in my stomach. So I figured it was a miracle. I didn’t feel any movements until seven months, and no complications, no sickness anything.”
She found out then it was a girl. Miracle joins her one year old brother. Her parents found out this morning she was the first baby born at JPS Health in 2015.
"It was a shock when they came in this morning and told me. It really was. Still shocked," she said.
The women’s services division of the hospital dropped off a basket of blankets and outfits for the newborn.
