Baby Yahavi was born to a Mumbai-based couple Santosh and Jayprakash on September 30, 2023. In a rare case, Mumbai-based doctors have given a new lease of life to a micro-preemie baby girl born at 23 weeks, weighing just 620 grams. 

Micro-preemies are babies born at an extremely low birthweight (ELBW), below 1,000 grams. In her 21st week of pregnancy, Santosh had to be hospitalised at Cloudnine Hospitals in Malad due to a urinary tract infection.
