Charlie-Rose arrived 91 days early; her skin was transparent and she weighed just 1060 grams.

Mindy went into labour on April 19, three months earlier than her expected July 20 date.

"We were at a friend's child's first birthday when I realised something was wrong," Mindy said.

"We rushed to Gosford Hospital where they gave me an injection of steroids and told me they would arrange for me to go to Royal Prince Alfred Hospital in Sydney, because they couldn't deliver a baby at 26 weeks.

"Then I started to have stronger aches and needed to go to the toilet.

"I was going in to labor.

"The staff decided to prep me for an emergency c-section just in case, but still told me they probably wouldn't have to operate.

"I was wheeled into theatre not knowing what would happen, but then the head surgeon decided he needed to get Charlie-Rose out.

"After the operation (Charlie-Rose) was flown to RPA and I followed her down in a road ambulance.

"I am so grateful for the staff at Gosford Hospital, without their help Charlie-Rose wouldn't be here today," she said.

The Gosford holiday was the start of what Mindy and Bradley describe as a "very scary journey".

Bradley, couldn't adore Charlie-Rose any more, it is hard to imagine, as he stares into her eyes, and she stares back that two months ago she was gripping to life in a hospital, surrounded by tubes and monitors.

"She is my little angel," he said.

"She is perfect, I was nervous when she was born early, but when she was taken to RPA I felt better, because I knew she was going to one of the best hospitals in Australia," he said.

It wasn't all smooth sailing at RPA though.

"When she was two weeks old Charlie-Rose needed a blood transfusion," Bradley said.

"She was going so well, but ended up with an infection.

"We are so thankful for everyone who donates blood, because without that she wouldn't be here today."

The couple are happy to be back in Cowra. Mindy has a four year old and a two year old who have been staying with their grandparents since the beginning of the ordeal.

"It has been hard on the kids, the two year old, Yazmin, didn't understand why I couldn't be at home, and the four year old told his grandparents that he missed his mum," Mindy said.

Her older children, Jason, 18, Maree, 17 and Jayden, 16, have helped out with the younger children, providing them with stability while their mum was away.

Charlie-Rose currently weighs in at 2200 grams, and has grown more than twice her birth weight and size.

She will remain in Cowra Hospital until she can feed from her mother independently.

She has mostly been tube fed, using a syringe to ensure she received nutrients to grow.

"She had no trouble taking a dummy but she couldn't co-ordinate the sucking with swallowing at the same time," Mindy said.

Mindy's five other children were all large, full-term babies, weighing in at around 4080 grams or between 8 and 9 pounds.

"The staff at the hospital told me they are surprised I carried Charlie-Rose for as long as I did, because my placenta was shot.

"She is our miracle baby and I'm so glad she didn't decide to come any earlier, because we might have lost her."

Charlie-Rose was named by her father.

"It is a name that I have had in my head for about 18 years, my nana was named Rose, and I just loved the name," he said.

Charlie-Rose will need to visit the RPA for follow ups throughout her life to ensure she is developing properly, and will need to check in with the medical team on her first, third, fifth and eighth birthdays.

The family would like to thank all who helped to save their daughter, including blood donors, hospital staff and charitable organisations as well as their strong network of family and friends.
