My niece was born at 22 weeks and weighed 14 ounces, she spent months in the hospital, trust me you and him will be okay, that's mommys little soldier, he needs u to be happy so he can feel it when you're with him
Thank you for your support everyone
I had my son at 34+5 at the end of December and he was just over 4 1/2 lbs and he was fine. He was very healthy and only spent 8 days in the nicu. He was eating ok at first and then that changed so they gave him a feeding tube but it was out like the next day. Babys pick up on things quick. Yer baby will be fine
Please do not feel that you failed him. You did all you could as a pregnant women and he truely is in the best place having the best care. Just be there just next to him, am sure he will know you are there watching him. Am so sorry you feel the way you do but your in the best place right now. Good luck mummy, stay positive
Well, in the picture he doesn't look tiny, and he's got good color!
I think you should probably set up a time to talk to the head nurse in charge of him, or pediatrician, and ask questions. You sound very worried about him but this may be completely expected, or they may be concerned about him. He's less than 2 days old - they may just be taking extra precautions.
Best wishes -
