on 22.11.2010 I had my daughter at 23weeks gestation, 17weeks premature

[Kayleigh88]

I signed up to this group when i first found out i was pregnant, but when I was 23weeks + 1day pregnant on 22.11.2010 at 11.38pm weighing 585grams I gave birth to my beautiful daughter daisy 17weeks premature, againest the odds daisy survived the birth and is now almost 1month old, she is in intenzive care neonatle unit in a top hospital up London, she is doing very well, although it is still early days, they are thinking about taking her off her ventolater this week to put her onto cpap, she had a operation on her heart 3days ago to close a duct and it was a success she is now on 3.5mls of milk per hour and I have never been so proud in all my life.

[KiansMummy]

aww congrats, what a little fighter youve got xx

 

[Kayleigh88]

oi leanne what you doing here lol, thanx for updating the ladies for me,

Daisy was doing really well for 4 days on her cpap but she has now been put back onto the ventolator as her blood gases were at boarderline, so they decided that to go back on ventalator was the best option because Daisy is exausted and they want to give her lungs a rest for a few days before trying cpap again, alothough she is now on full feeds xxx

 

[leannejkl]
