Hi there

My son (born in Sept 05) was only six weeks premature, but he had to be in the intensive care nursery for some time which was really hard. It broke my heart to see him in a humidicrib with tubes and wires all over him:( . It's a really confusing and scary time.

Feel free to PM me if you want.:)

Madi.

I also have a premmie baby. Connor is one now but was born 9 weeks early. He was in the special care nursery for a month and I couldn't take going home without him, to say it was difficult is an understatement. I'm another mum you can talk to anytime. I wish your little angel all the best. My neice was also a premmie but is a rowdy two year old now. It's amazing how they just grow, you wait til you get her home, she'll just get better.

Manda, Luke and Connor :)

Thanks.

Emerald is 940 grams now, and she is on a ventilator.

[mygirls]

Shell - that is fantastic that Emerald is nearly a kilo :D ... i never had a premmie bub but from what Emerald was born at she is putting on weight :) Hope that you are taking care of yourself too...

take care

Emy is 1090 grams now. Over a kilo! And she is off the ventilator and on CPAP again which is good. She has a lung infection but that should have cleared up soon. Nothing much else to report.

Congrats on the 1kg mark + the very important 90g. Glad to hear that she is back on CPAP. I hope you are all going well.

Great to hear she is doing well. I snuck in and had a look at your website a couple of weeks ago to see how she was doing but no news is good news...........glad you have let us know how she is going which by the sounds of it is great.
Take Care, Jen :)

Hi Shell

Last Tuesday I had a emergency caesarian due to me developing Hellp Syndrome. Our little boy Isaac was 32+2 weeks. His birth weight was 1777gms, he's currently 163gms and has just started to put on weight.

Your little girls looks very precious. Wishing you lots of luck over the coming weeks. If you want to chat just email me. I might need the support myself.

Take Care Zoe
