Resuscitate baby’s born under 24 weeks gestation

The Issue

On the 31st off July 2018 my little girl was born at 21+ weeks gestation. I was told as I went into labour that my baby wouldn’t make it through the birth and if she did she wouldn’t be resuscitated or incubated as she’s not deemed viable for another few weeks! My daughter was born and showed signs off life she breathed and moved and was left to pass away due to the fact doctors wouldn’t help her as she wasn’t 24 weeks viable I want to change the way this is looked at. If a baby is born and shows signs off hope.. give a baby a chance. A child that breaths is a living human being !! No mother or father should have to burry there child when they wasn’t given a chance to live due to percent factors and averages every baby is different and should be treated as a individual case and given medical help no matter how early there born please sign and help me to try and help other mums and dads and babies that are born to soon I wish someone could have helped my little girl in doing this for everyone who’s lost a baby to the 24 week rule xx
