Hi all new here....

Hi!

I'm jen (30 next month!) and currently 29+1 with no4! my previous 3 are with my ex hub and i'm now re-married and having another despite swearing i never would lol!!

I've had 2 premies before, (no1 Michael, 8, was 5lb 13oz at 38 weeks) no2 Harriet, 6 , arrived at 35 weeks weighing 5lb 15oz! and came home the next day with no problems.... no3 Evelyn, 4 , was born via section at 32 weeks after waters broke at 30 then i got an infection, weighed 3lb 14oz and was only in 12 days.

So needless to say I'm feeling like a ticking bomb ready to go off at any moment! I'm booked for steroids next monday and tuesday but already lost some plug this week and having some odd pains now and again...

So nice to have found a premie forum to vent!!
Look forward to getting to know you all

Jen x

Hi and welcome

I'm Katherine and had Sophie in March at 27 weeks exactly, due to pre eclampsia. She was 1lb 13. She came home in June, 6 days before her due date, weighing 5lb 6. She's now 8 months actual age, 5 months corrected, and weighs 13lb 11, which sounds huge even though parents of fullterm babies think she is still tiny!

I hope your LO hangs on in there a lot longer but we're all here to support you Did they find out why your others were early/why your waters went so early? The steroids make such a difference.
