OMG! Alabama Baby Born Without A Nose. A \"miracle\" baby in Alabama was born without a nose, it has been reported.

Washington: A "miracle" baby in Alabama was born without a nose, it has been reported.

Eli Thompson came into this world perfectly healthy on March 4, but with one distinction that he didn't have a nose, ABC News revealed.

Although her baby showed no signs of additional abnormalities, Brandi McGlathery said she was at first shocked and upset to hear the news from her doctor.

Dr. R. Craig Brown, McGlathery's obstetrician, said his own research has revealed only 38 cases of "absolutely nothing being wrong other than no nose."

Because Thompson was born without a nose, he must use a tracheostomy, a tube that will assist his breathing.

McGlathery further added that she and her family have all been trained in controlling her child's equipment, and all received CPR training.
