Hi Kerrie - we were just on the premature borderline as it were, my waters broke very early and LO was born at 36+6wks. Luckily he was a really good weight, 8lb 6oz (absolutely certain of my dates so he was just a big baby). We both had to stay in hospital for 2 nights as he was quite drowsy and jaundiced, which meant he took a couple of days to latch on to the breast properly. His weight gain was slow initially, and the jaundice took a month to pass, but we were really lucky he didn't have to stay in the hospital at all without me.

From the other posts, it sounds so varied how each baby reacts to being early. My brother was also born early - at 35wks, and he also came home with my mum, so looks like it doesn't always follow that they need extra support.

Hope everything goes well with your LO. Thinking of you x

I had my lo at 36 weeks and he needed no help at all... we were in for 2 days due to me having a section.

Hes doing great and he was big for that stage but you wouldnt think he was born early at all

Wow you had a big boy like us!
