Premature Baby Beats the Odds To Survive, Despite Being Born With This Unbelievable Malformation

carolyn and sean savage got married in 1993 and had their first child a year later but after that carolyn had more difficulty getting pregnant it simply wouldn't happen naturally still the couple had a second child soon after with the help of fertility treatments when carolyn and sean tried test tube fertilization in 2007 it had been 10 years since their last child was born nine months later daughter mary kate was born in february 2009 carolyn had embryos implanted in an attempt to have child number four surprisingly she and shawn received the news that the ivf treatment was successful but soon the couple's lives would be turned upside down just a few days into the pregnancy came some shocking news their doctor called and admitted that the couple's embryos had been mistakenly mixed up carolyn savage was overjoyed to be a mom again but the baby in her stomach wasn't hers carolyn had another woman's embryo implanted into her womb carolyn was forced to make the toughest decision of her life whether to abort the child she was to give birth to she decided to give the baby to his biological parents even though a doctor told her that it was her last chance to get pregnant we moved from a position of shock to a realization that this was actually going to happen it's just been difficult but we feel we made the right decisions on how to handle it carolyn explained sean and carolyn decided to contact the biological parents shannon and paul morrell who lived in detroit carolyn gave birth to a baby boy named logan via caesarian section four weeks early she only had a half hour with him before she gave him to his biological parents he's their son but he'll always be my baby carolyn says dad shawn had the difficult task of handing logan over to the boy's biological parents they were waiting in the room next to the delivery room after this overwhelming experience carolyn thought she'd seen everything but soon happiness would return to the couple in 2001 carolyn and sean announced they were expecting twins via a surrogate mother miracle twins isabella and reagan brought immense joy to the family who had experienced so much misery and disappointment before the twins have closed some of the grief we were still experiencing over what happened with logan they're certainly not replacement babies but they've been the best thing for all of us carolyn told the daily mail and just when you thought their lives couldn't take any more turns perhaps the most surprising news of all came in the spring of 2014. carolyn couldn't believe her eyes when she looked at the pregnancy test which she took at home in the bathroom could it really be true as my befuddled brain studied the test i thought i must be wrong i'm infertile i've gone through countless fertility treatments over the past two decades and with the exception of a couple of ivf's i've only seen two positive home pregnancy tests what on earth was my 45 year old self thinking i couldn't be pregnant now could i son nicholas whitten savage was born in the fall of 2014 and suddenly carolyn and sean savage's family grew to eight despite struggling with fertility for two decades baby nicholas who was born without the use of fertility drugs was born when mom carolyn was 45 years old he has two older brothers one big sister and twin sisters what a wonderful and special family this is one of the most incredible stories i've heard and i'm so glad it has a happy ending feel free to share this family story if you also want to wish the savages good luck in the future
