Plight Of A Smallest Mom

By Devaki

A Small Mother
A smallest mother reveals about the difficulties she has to face while caring her baby son, who is 18 months old.

Amanda Moore, 25, is the unlucky lady who has a little baby Aidan, who is almost as tall as her.

Moore suffers from Osteogenesis Imperfecta, rather known as brittle bone disorder, which keeps her measuring just 3 ft 1 inch from head to toe. But she thinks that she is lucky to get a tall husband, Steven Fyfe, who is 6 ft 1 inch. Amanda hopes that her son could end up as tall as his father.

She is the shortest woman ever to give birth in UK. Aidan was delivered by caesarean section last year.

“He takes after his dad. I always knew he would be taller than me but he"s shot up. When I sit on the floor to play with him, he is taller than me already. He"s getting so big and strong that soon we"ll have to tell him to be gentle with Mummy," says Amanda.

“It"s been a struggle because he"s been running rings around me since he was crawling. But now he"s walking he"s more than a handful for someone my size," adds this 'smallest' mother in UK.
