    Re: 24 weeks 6 days what to expect

    Jakes upto his fourth attempt at CPAP and third dose of steroids. He has 2 hernias and ROP grade 2 which I have just been told will require surgery sooner rather then later. They are concerned about his size (his 1.2kgs) his now 34 plus 2 and 66 days old.
    It's a constant knife edge and at the moment it's his lungs that are the thing that's holding him back. If he could just breath even on CPAP it would be a huge step, I don't know how I will cope if the move him back to ventilation.
