Anyone have a baby at 32 weeks?

Question

They’ve been trying to stop contractions for two days, but they seem to keep coming back. I’m starting to get nervous. I know the chances of survival are high, but my baby just seems to little! 😩
Did anyone have a baby at 32 weeks? What was your experience? Where you in the NICU for long?

Answer

Had my first at 34 weeks. Her lungs weren’t developed. Stayed in Nicu for 11 days. She’s a healthy 27 year old now.

Answer

I was born at 30 and I’m perfectly fine:)) best of luck to you and your little one!!

Answer

I had my little boy at 32 weeks. 
The Labour happened so quickly that 30 minutes after reviving the first steroid injection I gave birth so he had no benefit from it what so ever. 
He cried when he was born which was a huge relief but as soon as my partner cut the cord and we saw that he was a boy we  were able to kiss him on the head and he was immediately taken away from us to the nicu. 
The only problem he had was his lungs as they weren't inflating properly which is common at this age due to them not being developed enough (which is why they give the steroids which speeds this process up ten fold) 
We stayed 18 days all together in hospital. 
Once he was gaining weight nicely, breastfeeding well, breathing, and maintaining his temperature and stats we were able to come home. 
Listen to your body. And please get checked out. 
If my partner didn't convince me to go to hospital to get checked I would have lost my baby boy as I had a placental abruption but luckily baby was already engaged so he was born after an hour of labour and 3 minutes of pushing. 
If you need or want to talk about anything give me a message, its tough going through a premature birth when no one you talk to really understands the pain of having a baby in nicu

Answer

Have they given you steroid injections? My oldest was born at 34 weeks with two rounds of steroid injections and she had a 9 day nicu stay! It’s hard but you are in a good place. I’m 23+6 and we’re not sure how long I’ll last with this IC so I share your fear. But everything will be okay. Trust your doctors and your babies doctors. Good luck hun. 🤞🏻

Answer
