"Early to life"  

Welcome to the world. Most of the extremely early deliveries ends up with a caesarian to protect both the mother and the child. Often the children and their parents have to spend several months at the hospital until the children are strong enough to be discharged. The early-born babies have to lie in an incubator most of the day, but sometimes when their condition is stable, they can come out of the incubator. About 10 % of all births in Denmark are early deliveries. The chances for an early-born baby are good. About 90 % percent survives.
