Chloe Bennett was diagnosed with a heart defect while still in the womb.
At her 20-week scan, her mother Stephanie Bennett was told the unborn girl was suffering from transposition of the great arteries.
The life-threatening condition means the blood vessels in her heart are wired the wrong way, stopping oxygen circulating around her body.
Doctors told Mrs Bennett and her husband Charlie that Chloe would not be able to breathe once born – and her only chance of survival would be surgery.
Three hours after her birth, Chloe was taken to theatre for her first operation to keep her breathing.
