New to Board
Hi Everyone,
I have been on the bump throughout my pregnancy (my first!). Last Saturday I went into pre-term labor at 27 weeks. My little one decided to come early and joined us in this world last night at 10:09 pm. She is 2 lbs. 4 oz. and doing quite well despite the circumstances. She is so precious and we feel so blessed.
Of course you never really go into pregnancy thinking you will have a premature baby, so I have not done a lot of reading up on it so my husband and I are still a little lost. It's so new we are taking it day by day; thank goodness for the hospital staff, they have gone beyond to keep us informed and comfortable during this time. I am looking forward to chatting with all of you on this board and having a good support group.

Congrats and welcome here. Having a preemie is no easy thing and the NICU is such a roller coaster ride. Check out the preemie blog (link on the top of the board) for lots of good info and other preemie succes stories. Take care!

Congrats mommy! and welcome to the board - its not where any of us wanted to be but I'm glad I found my way here - there is so much support and these ladies are amazing! My DD was born 22w 5d and is now one year old!
Congratulations on your LO! My daughter was born at 26w2days and we just discharged from the hospital yesterday after almost 12 weeks! As a PP said, time in the NICU both flies and stands still. Remember that it is a roller coaster ride, and to enjoy the good days and try not to focus on the bad days. Also, it is a marathon and not a sprint.
GL in your journey!
