My son was born at 36 weeks and 5 days. He’s considered preemie because he was born 2 days before 37 weeks. Luckily he was 6 lbs 11 oz and he didn’t have to be in the nicu we went home two days later
I had my daughter at 35 weeks that is considered premature we had an long stay at the NICU about a month long it was the most stressful time ever I wouldn’t recommend having a baby under 37 weeks luckily she was healthy but not all babies are I seen a lot of horrible things in there
