34 weeks and these Braxton hicks contractions are no joke. π« They've already said if he tries to come again they won't stop labor... Looking at survival rates for preterm babies at this stage is encouraging though. 96% survival rating and biggest things are Keeping him warm and watching his breathing. Hoping he sticks it out ATLEAST another few weeks though
I had my second at 35 weeks and she didn't even need to go to nicu
I had my son at 33 weeks almost 8 years ago. its scary but he is perfectly fine. his doctors called him baby shaq from the beginning and now at 7 he is bigger then my 9 year old step son.
I had my son at 34 weeks last year and I had him in kerrville and they didn't even send him to San Antonio to the nicu he just stayed at the hospitial for 5 days had jaundice and low blood sugars and some trouble breathing the first night but after the first night he wasn't even on oxygen π your baby will do great
Thanks ladies! I'm feeling a little better about it. I'm still concerned about the breathing thing cause I lost my first son to SIDS but your encouragement and stories are helpful
