Australian family stuck in Christchurch Hospital after premature birthFACEBOOK New mum Brodie Soster with her daughter Billie, born 15 weeks premature. An Australian woman and her prematurely-born daughter are stuck in Christchurch after the infant was deemed too healthy for a medical transfer, but too unwell for a commercial flight home. SUPPLIED Billie Stevens weighed just 510 grams at birth. The medical transfer flight would have been specially pressurised. Though the birth was not as she had expected, Soster said watching small improvements in Billie's health made the difficulties disappear.
