A true miracle
Little Dali-Grey Woodgates is a miracle baby in every sense of the word. After five miscarriages, her mum Bryony Woodgates was thrilled to discover she was pregnant with a baby girl.
"She's nearly crawling. She does all the things a nine-month-old baby should be doing. She's amazing. To look at her you'd never known she'd been through all of that." Dali was born in the amniotic sac on January 21, 2022 - more than three months early. "There must have been at least ten people in the room, they were all completely silent. It was a very grave situation, not like the happy occasion, 'congratulations she's here'. It was just silence and waiting to see if she was alive and what condition she was in," said Bryony, who also has a four-year-old son, Mercury.
The chance of survival was put at just three percent. Bryony said: "When I saw her the next morning the journey we were just about to go through really started hitting me. I didn't know anyone who'd had a premature baby and I just thought she'll grow in the incubator. "On Liam's birthday, on Valentine's Day, I woke up to my phone ringing at 6am and I knew something was wrong. This voice said 'I'm really sorry but Dali has taken this turn for the worse, you need to come in now'.
Dali needed further bowel surgery, had 30 blood transfusions, contracted sepsis several times and suffered two brain haemorrhages. She stopped breathing and turned blue - at one point this was happening 15 times an hour so she had to be put back on a ventilator. She finally came off the ventilator on her due date, May 19.
"I'm not a worrier. Mercury was in the sandpit and eating worms and rolling around in the mud as a baby but I didn't want to put her in the garden as I was afraid of germs on the grass. Before she came home I bleached the house 30 times. We took it in shifts to watch her breathing."
