A friend of mine had her first baby at 26 weeks 2 years ago. Thankfully, she ended up being perfectly healthy after a long stay in the NICU. She is now due with her second in January and has been put on bed rest (little over 24 weeks). As uncomfortable as I am (only 3 weeks left!!!) it reminded me to be so very grateful for everyday this little boy grows in my belly. There is no inconvenience to me (not medical necessity) that would be worth him coming earlier than he needs.
