gave birth early

hi girls well i havent been on here for a while as on 17/05/08 i gave birth 9 weeks early to a beautiful baby boy he weighed 3 pounds 8 ozs and is in special care baby unit but is progressing well its gonna be a 7 weeks before i can bring him home which seems like an eternity.

my after birth had started to come away thats why i had to have an emergency caesaerean it was a very scary time and still is a very scary time with my baby boy in special care.

i just wanted to wish you all the best and thank you all for the support you gave while pregnant
i am now going to be on the premature baby bit but will pop back every now and then to see how you are all progressing

take care everyone xxx

  • Wow, congratulations on the (early) arrival of your son! Glad he is doing well although it must be soooo hard leaving him at hospital in the special care baby unit. Hopefully it won't be too long before he's strong enough to come home. Big hugs xxxx

  • Congratulations - I'm thinking of you at this time. I can understand how scary it must have been - I started contractions at 26+6 on saturday and spent the whole weekend in hospital. Thank goodness the contractions stopped and I didn't go into active labour but I was so scared my little girl would be born far to early. So am at home on bed rest for a week and have to take things very easy now so as not to go into early labour.

    I'm sure your little man will be home before you know it - all the best to you both xx
  • congratulations on your baby boy hun, Hope its not too long before your all home together. Thinking of you all.
