ABC News reports the youngest surviving premature baby is preparing to go home in a couple of days.

Amillia, now a relatively robust 4 1/2 pounds, was about to be released from Baptist Children’s Hospital in Florida, but doctors today unexpectedly decided postpone her release.

A spokeswoman for the hospital told the Associated Press she did not have details on why doctors changed their minds about sending Amillia home.

On Monday, Amillia was between 25 and 26 inches long, said doctors. She was 9 1/2 inches long and weighed 10 ounces at birth.

Amillia is the youngest surviving premature baby, born after just 21 weeks and six days in the womb.

Ten ounces. Wow. Credit the medical teams big time for this one.

New dad Eddie Taylor told “GMA” that the couple chose the name Amillia to honor the spirit of their baby daughter.

“It means resilience. She fought for her life, she fought to be here. By the grace of God, she’s here,” he said.

By the grace of God, we’re all here. :)
