Premature worry

[jessi2390]

So I am 33 weeks n I'm worried my little girl will come early, just because of the fact I was born a month premature. And this is my first baby. Any signs I should watch for? Should I be worried?

I wouldn't worry, preterm labours are not genetic. Infact according to statistics because this is your first pregnancy you are most likely to go over your due date.

Thank you ladies for bringing some comfort n ease to my thoughts

When I was in l&d for contractions at 25 weeks I asked the same thing (I was a month early n my sister 2 months). I wad told that prematurity isnt genetic, but labor may be similar to how your mom labored, because your hips may be close to the same

I was born a month premature as well. My baby boy was born just two days before his due date. I'm pretty sure it's not genetic.

I don't think there's any relation to you being early and her, but even iif she is early, at 33 weeks she would survive- she'd just take longer to get used to sucking on her own
