I'm Currently Feeling:  | I'm sorry to hear about your friends baby  My little boy was born at 28 weeks and his lung collapsed at 1 day old as well and he was fine despite his very early birth. Its very rare at 35 weeks though to have such lung difficulties, 3 of my children were born at 35 weeks and were fine, no assistance needed at all; they have been really unlucky
I hope he makes a very speedy recovery  |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Some good news!
I got a text last night to say baby is now off ventilator and chest drain has been removed. I'm so pleased!
My friend was able to change his nappy (inside the incubator) and had her first cuddle with him too. They will probably be in for another couple of weeks but doing well.
Thanks for all your comments - it was good to be able to share my worries! | | | | Status: Offline
