DD was born at 34 weeks with IUGR. She measured only 30-31 weeks when born.
She also had all of her small and part of her large intestine out.
I still get comments about how lucky I am that I didn't carry her "for very long". Hello!? I had 2-3 scans a week for AGES. My pregnancy went FOREVER!! I spent more time in hospital then at home, it felt like!
And comments about how tiny she was and and how when explaining how bad her stomach was "oh well. they can do so much for babies these days". That doesn't make the condition any less life threatening!!
Oh so lucky about no sleepless nights cause DD waas in hospital for 6 weeks. I still had to get up to express.
God I hate people sometimes.
The prem journey is NOT FUN!!!
Its so hard and heartbreaking. Its one of the worst things a parent can go through
