In 2010, 217 babies in Norway were born more than three months before their due dates. In these circumstances,
the babies usually weigh 1000 grams or less, and it is almost scary to see their small body parts covered with
transparent skin. Many of these premature babies survive thanks to an enormous effort to provide them medical
treatment. Photo: colourbox.com
