Levi Warner, 32 weeks, is fed by his father, Jason Warner, of Chillicothe in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at Children's Hospital. Levi was born at 29-weeks, weighing only 2 lbs. 9 oz. and is now 3 lbs. 9 oz. two weeks later. Levi was born premature via c-section due to his mother Leah developing pre-eclampsia. Any earlier and it would have been too soon for the baby to survive. Any later, neither of them would have survived, Jason says.
