Hi ladies,
LO was born at 34 weeks on Nov 5. He will be 8 weeks tomorrow. Adjusted age though he would be 2 weeks tomorrow. Should I be considering milestones according to his adjusted age or the age according to when he was born? What have your experiences been?

Born at 34w2d:
Adjusted until his second birthday. However there is a big curve in development already.
My older preemie did everything on adjusted age. He sat at 8 months, crawled at 10 months, stood on his own at 12 months, walked at 14 months, ect.
The only thing he didnt do on time was speech.
Honestly though, my full term baby sat at 6 months, crawled at 8 months, stood at 10 months and walked at 12, but there isnt much difference there now. It really didnt matter.
