I
was looking up video's of babies born 10 weeks premature. As most of you know I have a fear that this baby will be born early since my son Ryan was born a month early. And as my weeks go by I youtube however many weeks premature our baby would be and see what types of things come up. Well I saw this video in the related categories as "Deformed Baby" so curiousity hit me and I watched it.
AHHHHHHH........I almost cried, I feel so sorry for the little guy but my god is it scary looking. I could not imagine giving birth to a baby that looks like that. I dont know what I would do. It would still be my baby and I would love him/her but I heart just breaks for the mother of this child. ↓

I saw this before on discovery health channel. This baby had something where the skin reproduced too fast so they had to bathe it everyday and rub the skin off and then slather it with some thick lotion. They had to do that multiple times a day. The baby should be hitting his teens pretty soon but the routine of bathing, scrubbing and slathering thick lotion stays. They can die from this if not properly taken care of. ↑

Funny you mention that.. i just saw the documentary on it the other day..
Really sad huh... They dont actually look like that there whole life.. Once they have scrubbed all that skin off as a baby they sorta improve a bit.. not so SCARY looking..... but they are still strange looking people... really sad. ↑

If I had seen hat baby and somebody told me it was an alien, I would have believe it unless I'd already heard of it.
