I had my angel baby on May 29th at 30 weeks gestation, weighing in at 2lbs 2oz. Savannah was born via emergency c-section due to sudden onset pre-eclampsia and later to find out she was also IUGR (intra-uterine growth restricted) due to placenta accreta and small for her gestational age.
She spent 6 weeks in the NICU, mostly with growing/feeding needs. She needed limited time on intubation & CPAP. Savy came home on July 12th and will turn 3 months old this weekend (2 weeks adjusted age).
We live in Normal Heights (just south of Adams Ave). I'm hoping to connect with other preemie moms for support, coffee, park dates, etc. The Preemie board here on the Bump has been incredible, but I'd really love to meet someone IRL to chat with and share experiences, concerns, stories with.
