I went into labor @ 27 weeks, and had an abruption, toximia, and preclemsia. Had my son Evan @ 29 weeks. He was 3lbs even. 15 1/2 inches long though! Terrified to see what he would have been full term! lol. He was in the NICU for 2 months though! It was the hardest thing going into the hospital pregnant, and leaving without my baby :( He's 3 1/2 now, and he's 40 inches tall, and weighs 37 lbs! You would NEVER even guess he was so tiny! People can't believe it when I tell them his story!

My son colter was born 13 weeks early, only weighing 2 lbs 12 oz. Now being 14 months old is the wildest boy I ever have knew. but it took a lot of treatment to get him to the health that he as got to today

I was 33 weeks 3 days when I had my baby girl, but she was the size and development of a baby at 31 weeks. The record says she was 31 weeks, so she was 9 weeks early.

Aisis was 10 weeks premature, she weighed 3 lbs. 9 oz. and stayed in the NICU for 30 days. She was breathing on her own after one day and still hasn't had any severe problems. I got so lucky!!
