    Hi Jessie

    to BB & congratulations on the birth of your son! Hope all is going well...I know it's a struggle when your little one is born so early but he is in the best place atm.

    My son was born at 25+1, 800grams. He was ventilated for an extensive period and came home off oxygen 1 day after his EDD.

    On Wednesday we attended the NICU follow up clinic and was so proud that he had been give the thumbs up by all concerned. He is now 11 mths 1 weeks (8mths corrected) and weighs 7.64 kgs.

    Thinking of you & sending healthy growing vibes Charlie's way

    Hi Jessie!!

    Firstly congratulations on the safe arrival of Charlie ( I recognise you as well )

    My DD was born at 33 weeks and was a boofer in comparison to wee Charlie, @ 2350grams.

    As tiny as he is, he was born a wonderful size for a 24 weeker, but still a wee little micro prem, I have had the opportunity to spend a bit of time in our local NICU in recent months and I can truely understand how small he was.

    How big is he now, how is he going with his breathing?
    Thikning of you and look forward to getting to know yourself and Charlie
    Take care and I hope you are finding some time for yourself to debrief every now and then xxoo
