A baby born unexpectedly at 25 weeks over 2,500 miles away from home is now thriving after a roller coaster journey over several months.
Claire Lutz, 36, was only 24 weeks pregnant when, on a business trip on the other side of the country, her waters unexpectedly broke.
"I'd stayed in the parking lot, and my husband and our friends went to actually look at the rocks -- because I didn't really want to do anything that was too strenuous", Claire said.
As she waited in the car park of Vasquez Rocks Park in California, she was shocked to find that her waters had broken. Fortunately, her husband and friends were with her and able to provide help quickly.
"We didn't have any reason to be concerned at that point. And you know, what we heard from the doctors was that there's no way we could have known that this particular complication would have happened".
