A couple left their parents screaming with joy after bringing home their premature baby who spent 50 days in the NICU and leaving him on their doorsteps to capture their reactions. Ines [pron: E-nes] and Sandro Lavalle’s son Gianni [pron: Jah-nee] was born six weeks prematurely and therefore faced developmental challenges with his breathing and swallowing. So, for his grandparents - Sandro’s parents Renato and Bernardina and Ines’ parents Gianni and Marianna - it was an anxious wait over when they would be able to bring home their new grandchild. During 50 days in the NICU Gianni also had bradycardia spells - periods when he would stop breathing or his heart rate dropped - with docs telling the family he needed to have one week with no bradycardia spells in order to be allowed home. Ines revealed many times Gianni he would fight up to three, then four and five days with no bradycardia spells, but would then have a spell and they’d have to start the clock over again. Gianni was born June 1 2018 and finally discharged from the NICU on July 21 2018 - total of 50 days - and since they’d stopped reporting his spells to his grandparents the couple decided to surprise them and their respective homes in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. After knocking on the door to get their attention, the couple leave Gianni on their doorsteps before stepping back to record their tear-jerking reactions. And it was a double surprise for granddad Gianni as he discovered his first grandchild was also to be named after him.

As an NICU nurse, this really makes me happy. It's a great feeling when you can help little angels survive 💖💖 I've taken care of such babies and the smiles of parents are priceless while they go home ☺

With such lovely grandparents, no doubt the child will grow up pampered with great love and care. I would love to be that baby. 🤗🤗🤗

Man, I would have paid anything to see a reaction like that from my late father when my wife was pregnant. He died one year before I met her and sometimes I saw my father's smile in my son. Congrats to the beautiful family

This is so sweet. Reading some comments I realized that a lot of folks are missing having kids and grandkids. Please remember that so many kids are in need of loving parents and grandparents. If you have love and the ability, you can change a human being's entire life while fulfilling your own want you be a family.✌

My heart goes to every baby that didn't get the warm welcome and love from their families.

Oh how wonderful! What a beautiful baby. God bless him always. Much happiness to you. My last baby was 5 weeks early, spent 30 days in NICU, with a defective heart valve. She’s now 38, married with two teenagers and is a dentist.

I ended up in the hospital 10 weeks before my Christmas time due date. My daughter, Autumn, was born in mid-October 2 weeks later at 3lb 9oz. She'll be 20 next month. NICU staff were our angels.
