The ‘world's smallest baby’ leaves hospital – BBC News

Kwek Yu Xuan was just 212g (7.47oz) – the weight of a large apple – when she was born and measured 24cm long. She now weighs a much healthier 6.3kg (14 pounds).

She was delivered at just under 25 weeks – far short of the average 40.

The baby girl had a "limited chance of survival", according to Singapore’s National University Hospital (NUH) where she was born.

The previous record-holder was a girl in the US who weighed 245g at birth in 2018, according to the University of Iowa’s Tiniest Babies Registry.
