Hi girls, a close family friend has polycysitic (sp??) ovaries and has extreme difficulties getting pregnant. She has had lots of miscarriages and never made it past 14 weeks. Well this time she made it past 14 weeks and started having hope this baby would survive and at 24 weeks she started telling people and even brought her 1st baby bits. She was so proud of her little baby bump and everything appeared well. Yesterday she had some discomfort that felt like baby turning and yellow snotty discharge so she went to delivery suite and they confirmed an infection and that she was in labour. They held off the contractions and blue-lighted her to Cambridge where she gave birth yesterday to a little girl, weighing 1lb 7oz.
She is on lots of monitors and machines but can breathe quite a bit on her own, doctors seem positive and said she had a healthy birth weight for her age. I would just like to know what are her chances of survival? If she does survive how badly will she be affected? My friend doesnt deserve this and i pray for her that her little girl survives. Please keep her in your thoughts and prayers.
Thanks girls xxx
