They under a healthy birth weight because they were born prematurely. That is not the natural state of things nor is it to be desired, no matter how 'cute' it seems.

Yeah, that was an insensitive post, not someone I would want caring for my newborn. I think 12 lb newborns are just as cute as a 7 lb baby or a 3 lb baby. And if anything, I have seen premature babies and they are actually alien looking- don't see how they are so much cuter, if anything they are scary looking. My husband was a 3 lb baby and he even admits he was ugly as sin because he wasn't developed. I think the goal should be to have a healthy baby, not to have one that is tiny because they are so much cuter and easier to love.
