VIDEO: Baby Lives Thanks to His Mother’s Love

Kate Ogg and her husband David were told they were going to have twins and they couldn’t have been happier about the news. Unfortunately, because of a premature birth, the first of the two babies supposedly wouldn’t make it. Devastated, the parents cradled their seemingly lifeless infant, spoke to him and placed his ear on his mom’s heart. At that moment, a miracle happened! He opened his eyes! This story is a testimony of just how powerful a mother’s love is.
According to dailymail.co.uk, first-time parents Kate and David Ogg were heartbroken when they were told one of their twins – born two minutes apart at just 26 weeks – had stopped breathing and had just moments to live.
Thinking it was the only time they would have with the tiny boy they had already decided to name Jamie, Kate asked to be able to hold the lifeless child and told David to climb into the hospital bed for a tender embrace.
The doctor sat on the end of Ms Ogg’s hospital bed and asked the couple if they had a name picked out. He then informed them that there was nothing more they could do to save Jamie.
‘I saw him gasp but the doctor said it was no use. I took Jamie off the doctor, asked everyone to leave. He was cold and I just wanted him to be warm,’ she said.
‘We had tried for years to have kids and I felt so guilty. I just wanted to cuddle him. I unwrapped him and ordered my husband to take his shirt off and climb into the bed.
‘I know it sounds stupid, but if he was still gasping there was still a sign of life so I wasn’t going to give up easily.
In this mother’s loving arms, the little boy started moving, and his breathing grew stronger. Hospital staff rushed back to his aid and together brought the baby back to life.
Five years on, Jamie Ogg is a healthy, happy kid whose biggest problem regarding his troubled entry in the world is having a little brother who tells anyone who’ll listen that he used to be dead but now he’s alive.
But just six months into the pregnancy they found themselves in the delivery room and facing premature births.
Remarkably, Jamie has not encountered one medical problem in the five years since his birth.
‘He is absolutely fine… the biggest concern they had was cerebral palsy because of the lack of oxygen but there’s been nothing,’ Ms Ogg said.
‘It’s absolutely astounding. This whole experience makes you cherish them more.’
The Ogg family have set up an online community called Jamie’s Gift to regularly raise funds for the Miracle Babies Foundation – an organization that supports premature and sick newborns.
Dave is currently training for an Ironman triathlon in Port Macquarie in May to raise funds.
‘He will put his body through a grueling 3.8km swim, 180km bike, and a marathon,’ Ms Ogg said.
