A northern Kentucky woman believes she is the smallest woman who ever gave birth.

Stacey Herald, 33, gave birth five weeks ago to an 18-inch daughter who is not much smaller than her mother, reported WLWT-TV in Cincinnati.

"I'm 28½ inches, head to heel," said Herald, who was born with osteogenesis imperfecta. 

Herald's 16-month-old daughter, Katira, also suffers from the genetic disorder that causes bones to break easily, but her youngest daughter, Makaia, is expected to grow to average height.

"'Yesterday I was 5 weeks old, (and) I'm already over half as big as my mommy,'" said Herald, changing her infant daughter's diaper. ...

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle
