Per the post below about the girl that just had her baby. There is an entire post on 2nd tri about whether she's lying or not. I made a second post putting my opinion on it. The fact that there is a debate over the whole validity of the post makes me sick.
Re: OMG
I posted as well in response. It is sick.
I DO have a 24w5d baby and he IS perfectly healthy now. The fact they are saying, "OMG! That is not even possible!" YES! IT IS!! My DS is proof of that. I think many of the 6-12 girls who are posting and calling MUD take their healthy full-term babies for granted. If they even knew what one of us had to go through they would STFU!

It's awful... I've seen crazy stuff on other boards (one faked suicide and one real death that everyone thought was faked) but wow!
And really, I find the girl who said her 28 weeker was only in the hospital for 2 weeks a little more sketchy than the new mom everyone's talking about!
now wait... those girls are NOT saying that a child born at that gestation would not make it... they wonder how the baby made it with NO medical team (other then some dentists) around... Just sayin...

i didn't see where she said there was no medical team...she said he had oxygen until he was at the hospital. maybe someone called 911 when she went into labor and they were responsible for the transport. and maybe she just didn't feel like she had to explain every last detail so that she wasn't called a liar. maybe she didn't have time to get to the hospital because things didn't go like they paint them in the labor and delivery classes. because that's not how things go with preemies. if everything was all perfect, then the baby wouldn't be here.
what really gets me is that they are trying to take even more of her experience of having a baby away from her. i didn't get to have my water break. i didn't get to feel a contraction. i didn't get to tell my husband it was time to go to the hospital. i didn't get to have my family waiting in the waiting room for the big announcement. i didn't get to hear the doctor exclaim "it's a boy!" in a happy tone. i didn't get to hold my baby for more than 24 hours after he was born. i left the hospital without him. he spent his first christmas in the NICU. but you know what, i was happy. i couldn't stop smiling. because even though i was scared out of my mind, i still just had my first child. and that was the only part of the experience that wasn't taken away from me when he came early. so i think that a bunch of people that haven't been there shouldn'r be so quick
to say that she'spPROM at 27 weeks, Birdy born at 28 weeks at 2lb 7oz.
Wow... You just gave me goosebumps. Very nice wording.
