After becoming pregnant with her first baby, Regan Daugherty was hospitalized with pain in her back and sides.

She and boyfriend Dillon Fitts visited a fetal specialist who spotted issues with the pregnancy made worse by the baby’s already slow growth, deciding the baby had to be delivered by emergency C-section after just 25 weeks.

Baby Ezra was born on November 6 weighing just 14 ounces and over the next 156 days, the young family stayed in the hospital with four separate trips to the operating room as Ezra was kept on support.

Finally, they got the news they were waiting for, that they could take Ezra home and were discharged from the hospital, capturing the moment they left on video.
