Baby Born Three Months Premature Kept Alive By Doctors In Tesco Sandwich Bag

A tiny premature baby was incredibly kept alive after quick-thinking doctors placed her inside a Tesco sandwich bag to keep her warm.
Pixie Griffiths-Grant weighed just 1.1lbs when she was delivered by emergency C-section at 28 weeks - but her weight quickly fell to less than 1lb minutes after birth. 
Doctors immediately bundled her into a see-through sandwich bag - emblazoned with the supermarket’s logo - to stop her body temperature dropping. 
Pixie, who was lighter than half a bag of sugar and smaller than her mother’s hand, was rushed to intensive care, where doctors expected her to survive for less than an hour.
