Any 23 weekers??

Thank you all for your kind messages. I've barely been on b&b! Ashton is doing well. He's had his PDA ligation (Thursday last week) he arrive back at our local hospital yesterday and settled in well. He's triggering well on the ventilator which is great but he's learned he can hold his breath which is quite scary!! The next step for him is working towards getting him off the ventilator .i hope and pray he is able to clear this hurdle.
I can't believe how well his Facebook page is doing - over 6 thousand followers! I only set it up so family and friends could keep up to date with him. The support we get is truly amazing - we are so thankful xx

I read your story and just had to post a comment, which is unusual for me. I lost my first daughter to IC and am so sorry for your loss. My second daughter was born prem at 24 weeks and 1 day. She is now 20 months old and very feisty, when she does something new I am so touched and feel so blessed.

I wanted to wish you both all the best.

Thinking of you x

Please don't hesitate to pm me if you want any advice or even just to vent.

Best wishes

Hi, my sister was born at 23-24 weeks. She was about the same weight. She was born with cerebral palsy.

Thr doctors didn't even give her a chance. Yeah, they worked on her but told my mom not to expect to much. They said she wouldn't live to be five. Well today she's 22 years old and in perfect health. I mean she can't walk as she had gotten a metal hip, but she's perfectly healthy. She graduated high school in 4years. Very smart, funny too.
But my point is, at that gestation age, they CAN have normal lives and be totally fine. Good luck and congrats!

I know a woman who lives in my town who recently gave birth to 23 week triplets. One of them passed away, but the other two are puddering along nicely, and they don't even weigh 1lb!
