My little one, Alex, was born at 35 weeks and weighed 1.9 kilos (4lbs 2oz). He was in 000000 (yes they do exist in hospital and speciality shops) for about three weeks before he grew into 00000. I now look at him (he's 18 months old) and wonder how he was ever so small!

He is still on the small side, and susceptible to infections (hospitalised three times since birth, with pneumonia, gastroenteritis and concussion) and is still below the 3rd percentile for weight.

But he is happy and relatively healthy, and considering we both almost died, we are very lucky to be here.

I'll tell my whole story another time when I've got more time.

Regards;
Divvy
