Famous Preemies: Albert Einstein About Victor Hugo: Although there is no positive proof that Victor Hugo was born prematurely, it is likely judging from several descriptions of his birth and infancy. Hugo entered the world on February 26, 1802, landing in Besancon, France. His mother described him as “no longer than a knife.” It seemed unlikely that the tiny baby would survive; in fact, it is said that Victor's coffin was ordered from the carpenter at the same time as his cradle. He later told Alexandre Dumas that even at 15 months he could not hold his head erect. Like many preemies, Hugo was determined to live and make his mark on society. He was a tiny baby born into a broken home, but he was to become one of the greatest writers of all time as well as a major figure in French politics. Albert Einstein said: “There are two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as if everything is.” Links for Preemies and Babies:March of Dimes Preemie InfoWikipedia about premature birth prematurity.org Fertility Friend for free pregnancy and web trackers Consult babies Immunization Schedule Clothing for preemies
