Nolan is nearly 3 months old, he was born 5 weeks early and was 5lbs, he had jaundice and couldn't come home for exactly one week. He's doing a lot better and weighs 12 lbs now.

my lil one was one month early but was not the size of a premi baby. she was 8.5 pounds! completely bruised all over her body, was on a breathing machine for the first day and night, had the UV treatment for 5 days and feeding tube for 3 days. all of the special care nurses were amazed at how big she was for a month early. but after the sixth day she was healthy and well. it was amazing how fast she got better. Good luck Emma, i hope dylan grows healthy and happy very soon. best wishes for you both. xx
