Doctors have called an Iowa baby born this month a “miracle baby” after he was born weighing just 13 ounces—making him the hospital’s smallest baby born in the past decade.

When Jaden Wesley Morrow was born premature at 23 weeks at Blank Children’s Hospital in Des Moines, doctors told his parents he was “remarkable,” reported KCCI Des Moines.
