For mommas with babies born at 37 weeks, did baby have any nicu time? Was there anything different than a full term baby?

Question

My doctor decided that it’s best I get induced at 37 weeks & im super nervous baby will have to go to the nicu or something will go wrong because of how early he is.
There is nothing wrong with baby, just with me is the reason I’m getting induced early. 
I’m currently almost 35 weeks now.

Answer

My baby was born at 37 weeks because she stopped growing. She was born with 4 pounds and needed to stay a week in Nicu. I hated to leave her but she had the best of care.

Answer

My son was born at 37+2 he had some jaundice and needed blue lights but did not have to go to the NICU!

Answer

I had mine at 37 and no nicu for that. They did put her in intermediate care (slightly less serious than nicu) 4 days after she was born because she dropped too much weight too quickly, but you should be fine mama. Congrats

Answer

I had my first at 34wks and she was in the Nicu. 2nd baby 37 wks and no Nicu time. However, she was rehospitalized a few days later due to jaundice

Answer

I had both my daughters at 37 weeks and everything was good no nicu time I'm currently 30 weeks with babygirl #3 lol and expecting the same thing to happen if not sooner 😅
