Late term PREEMIE moms, where you at!? :)

Question

FTM to a healthy baby girl born just a bit early at 35.4 weeks. Would love to connect with other moms who might be curious about milestones and development like me. 
Lately our girl has been going through what seems like a typical 6 week growth spurt/fussy period but given her adjusted age I’m not sure what to go by or what to have faith in!! For the past 5 days she’s been super fussy all day and is only comforted while nursing or sleeping on my chest, she’s all about mom lately. She’s also sleeping less the past couple of nights and has a hard time going down. 
Anyone else going through this?

Answer

My little guy was born right at 36 weeks and he’s been pretty close to his developmental stuff, especially the growth spurts and cluster feedings. I never knew what to go by what that either, because adjusted he was a ways off from the typical growth spurt age but not adjusted he was right on track 🤷‍♀️

Answer

My baby was born at 34w5d. He’s hitting all his milestones at his actual age. The only thing he’s been behind on is his height and weight. Everything else has been developing typically. He just turned 10 months old and is walking holding on to furniture, waving, trying to talk, and crawling like a champ.

Answer

My son was born at 34 weeks and has always been closer to his adjusted date or a little behind in his milestones. We constantly work with him to make sure he stays on track for his adjusted age. There are a lot of great PT exercises available online.

Answer

My daughter is a 35 weeker and she had colic. I tried everything and it seemed like not a lot of things helped. It was something that started around 3 weeks old and lasted until she was 6-7 weeks old. One thing that did help her was wearing her and doing those colic relief exercises (there’s tons of videos on YouTube).

Answer

My youngest is extremely colic she was born at 35 weeks. Shes now almost 3 months old but so far keeping up with where she should be.

Answer

My daughter was born at 35+2 and turned 6 weeks last Thursday. She is also going through this fussy stage. I’m not sure what’s gotten into her lately. I thought it might be a growth spurt or something. She’s not eating much more then usual but she’s awake a lot more lately and she always wants to be held. It makes it hard to get anything done around the house lol but chores can wait. She’s only little once!

Answer

Could she be colic? My oldest was born at 34 weeks. She’s 6 years old now and she suffered from horrible colic and reflux from about 4weeks old to almost 1. Colic got the best of her. She always wanted to lay on me, it’s like it helped her. (My youngest isn’t a premie but she did the same thing with colic)
