A mother of four was left terrified when she was told during her pregnancy that her baby girl would be born with her intestines on the outside of her body. However, the now-11-month-old girl, who received reversal surgery to reinsert her small and large intestine into her body, just has an outie belly button to show for it.
Mom Laura Woodward, 24, and dad Adam, 30, a dry liner, from Clitheroe, Lancashire, England—who were already parents to Ava, 7, Zachary, 5, and Tommy, 2—knew they were having a little girl thanks to an eight-week gender test in May 2020. The couple was excited to add the “final piece” to their family.
