Stacey Herald is 2-feet, 4-inches tall, and her new son will already be half her size when he is born.
The 35-year-old from Dry Ridge, Ky., was told by doctors that a baby would grow so large inside her tiny body it could eventually crush her organs, strangling her from the inside out.
But she has already defied the odds by having two healthy daughters.
"The doctors all told me that I would die,” she said. “They begged me not to have a baby. Even my mother said, 'You know you won't survive right?'"
However, Herald and her husband, Will, insist their kids are a gift from God.
Herald suffers from osteogenesis imperfecta, which causes brittle bones and underdeveloped lungs. The condition stunted her growth and forces her to use a wheelchair.
She’s currently 30 weeks pregnant and admits that it’s getting tougher to move around.
That's such a freaky looking pic
