'Miracle' Baby Goes Home For First Time

A 'miracle' baby who was found alive in a morgue after being declared dead has been taken home for the first time.

Mother Analia Boutet and her husband were told on April 3 that their three-month premature baby, who weighed just 1.7lb, was stillborn.

But when they went to a refrigerated morgue 12 hours later to see their child, they found the little girl was alive.

They named her Luz Milagros, meaning 'Miracle Light'.

And now, after five months under specialist medical care, she has gone home with her parents.

She is in a stable condition but still uses a tube for feeding and breathing.

Doctors, however, warn that she remains fragile and will continue to need medical assistance.

Back in April, Mrs Boutet described the moment she found out her daughter was still alive: "I moved the coverings aside... and I touched her hand and then uncovered her face. That's where I heard a tiny little cry".

"I fell to my knees. My husband didn't know what to do. We were just crying and I laughed and cried, cries and laughter."

The parents had planned to name her Lucia Abigail, but decided to change the name after the baby's "miracle" survival.
