Born at 31-32 weeks?

Question

Anyone have a baby born between these weeks or even up to 36? 
I am 31+1 dialing and almost fully effaced. Taking precautions but, baby really could come any day. He is measuring in the 50% so he is probably 3-4lbs. (Maybe) just any stories from other moms would be great! Thanks NICU momma warriors!

Answer

Yep!!!! Baby was born at 32 weeks. My water broke at 31 wks exactly. They tried to keep him. And did good for another week inside. Then I developed a fever (still don’t know what infection) and he was in distress. Ended up with an emergent c section after I only got to 5 cm with potocin. He spent 2 Weeks on the NICU. He was born 5lbs 2 oz. needed no oxygen, touch of jaundice. Only reason he was on the NICU was becauss he was having trouble eating. He did good with latching, but they had a feeding tube also. So it was overwhelming. He would latch for 10-15 minutes. Then the RN would check his feeding tube & he wasn’t getting enough. So then, they try a bottle, and then he’d fall asleep bx he was so tired from sucking. Then they’d tube the rest. We just got to a point where we wanted him home & felt like, let’s just pump & bottle feed. They didn’t like it, but it’s my kid 😇 and it worked! He’s thriving & were so fortunate he’s done so well.
