My first born was a preemie! I had him at 35 weeks and 6 days! He was 3 pounds and 14 ounces and had to spend some time in the NICU! I'm pregnant with twins now and I'm so scared they will be preemies as well!

@supermom1992, I know if they aren't at least 4 pounds they will send them to the NICU. It just sucks having that in the back of my mind constantly because I have to have them at the same hospital as my son because of the insurance I'm on.

@highess9720, he was in there 8 days! I know it doesn't seem long but those were the longest 8 days of my life! They were torture! The hospital I had him at didn't have a NICU so after he was born they transferred him to a hospital 30 minutes away! I didn't get to hold him Til he was 3 days old and all the nurses in the NICU were super overprotective and sometimes wouldn't let me take care of him! It was an awful experience!

With twins preemies are common but they can be healthy. Both my sons (single births) were preemie and healthy and didn't have to NICU. Preemie doesn't always mean unhealthy sometimes they are just small and healthy. Don't worry yourself.

how long was he in the nicu?? I'm 36w tomorrow and am showing signs of premature labor!!
Dear micro preemie moms, I'm writing this to you. When my daughter was born we were told we were 37 weeks along only to then be told the doctor before me lied to me and I wasn't 37 weeks I was 32 weeks and my baby would be born a preemie. Just a little earlier I had someone who I thought was a friend give birth to a 28 weeker. She was considered a micro preemie. I felt bad but I also had my own issues to deal with with my preemie daughter. When she was born our lives were a nightmare. I cried when they took my baby away without telling me why, I sobbed openly on the floor of the nicu when I finally got to see her 2 days later. I cried because I couldn't touch my baby because she was too sick for even her mother to touch her. I was an empty shell when they told me I had to go home with out my baby. I had no life expect when I went to see my baby ever 2 hours. We may not have been a micro preemie but we were still preemie parents. The first time I posted about my 34 weeker during preemie awareness month I had a micro preemie mom attack me because my baby was as "preemie" as hers therfore I didn't deserve to call my baby or my self a preemie strong mom. You're wrong. I may not have had a micro preemie but a preemie is still a preemie no matter what the size or gestation. So as an open call to all micro preemie moms, don't look down on "regular" preemie moms just because you think you have it harder, because the truth is we all have it hard. Your not some how more entitled to the name preemie mom because of the micro before it. EVERY preemie mom is Preemie strong and every preemie mom deserves to be loved and felt like she can make it through by the support of other preemie moms. Stop the hate inside a group of women who need all the support they can get. I in know way want to make anyone angry, but the truth is when micro preemie moms put down "regular" preemie moms they do themselves an injustice. Stop the hate embrace the love.
