Florida baby ‘born twice’ after elaborate surgery involving partial delivery

Cassian Joubert was partially delivered at 25 weeks for procedure and placed back in mother's womb before birth

A Florida infant is said to have been born twice after undergoing what was an innovative, likely life-saving surgery that involved a partial delivery weeks before his mother then gave birth to him.

Cassian Joubert's remarkable story was recently first told publicly by his mother and father - Keishera and Greg Joubert - in a 1 May video published on social media by the Orlando Health Women's Institute, which employs the surgeon that led the baby boy's prenatal operation.
