I just might do that! :)
I wasn't born premature but was a couple weeks early and had the chord wrapped around my throat, but luckily I managed to get here safe and sound :)
My daughters were due March 13th, and were born January 25th. They were both in the hospital for a couple weeks, but one has had to go back several times since then.
This was a great improvement compared to my first daughter who was born at 22 weeks and didn't make it.
I was a month early. Not much at all, compared to the babies they're able to save now (23 years later).
I was actually born 10 days late.
my sister was a preemie. she was scary small with underdeveloped lungs, but she's fine now! :)
I was a preemie born 12 weeks early. I was 1 pound 8 ozs and 12 inches long. I spent the first couple of months in the hospital. 25 years later I am happy healthy with no health complications.
