Congratulations again on the birth of Anneliese, Simone! It sounds like she is doing really well for a little one born so early. Your ticker photo certainly brings back memories!

Premmie bubs stay in the newborn stage a bit longer and will often take a bit longer to reach their milestones, but like the other girls have said, she will eventually catch up to her peers and will not necessarily suffer any long term problems. It sounds like she is off to a great start anyway.

I hope things are continuing to go well and I hope your expressing is picking up too. It's not an easy job. If you have any questions or want to discuss anything, post any time.
