My dd was born at 34 weeks, weighing 2170kgs - 4 pound 12. She stayed in the NICU for 3 weeks as she was still a bit too small/weak to feed all the time without a tube. Otherwise she was great...didn't need a lot of assistance with breathing - just a few days on CPAP - but the circumstances of her birth were quite traumatic and very unexpected so that may have affected her also. Now Ella is 12 months and is just like any other bub her age. They are tough little things!

I wish you the absolute best of luck with the upcoming arrival of your precious bub...and ultimately, as long as they come into this world safely and healthy, that's all that matters I'm sure the best decision will be made for you and your baby!
