You Know You're a Parent of Preemies When... - Twiniversity

Read about what a parent of preemies goes through that a parent of a full term baby will never understand. It's doubly so with twin preemies.

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.

This month is Preemie awareness month. Take a minute to show your support and love for moms like me and put purple for your profile picture. Preemie babies and parents are strong people who go through a lot. 1 and 10 babies are born premature and 70% of them are born 34 weeks to 37 weeks. I am a preemies mother, we are preemie strong 💪 💪 💪 #NovemeberIsPurple #PreemieAwarenessMonth #preemieStrong #WeAreFighters #34weeker @Preggie_USA http://www.marchofdimes.org/complications/premature-babies.aspx
