@kckpriest I wait until 6-9 months. I do sleep training at those times depending on the kiddo. I have 6 and it’s worked well for me. Also all 6 have been preemies. Born between 31-35 weeks
@glen101 My preemie baby was eating 2.5 oz a feeding when she weighed 5lbs.
Birth weight was 4lbs she is now 14 weeks and eats 3.5-4oz a feeding. Don’t listen to your doctor. Causes so many issues when doctors aren’t truly informed that every baby is different.
@eline It really depends on why your child is in the nicu.
For my I’ve had 5 in the nicu. All feeder growers so with my last I knew she was ready to go home before the doctors said. Different doctors everyday and all had different opinions. I had a meeting with them all and told them this...
@nyvic I got this too with my last baby. She was only there a week but I could only come for 1 care time a day. I had 5 other kids at home. Two of them being 2 and 1. And it was an hour drive away. I’m so sorry
@benstiller12 Omg when mine were that age they were waking every 1.5 to 2 hours. I ended up sleep training and night weaning cause I couldn’t keep doing it. They were 6 months and the other was 9 months
@catrinabrosko Not IUGR but nicu baby. She’s 15 almost 16 weeks now.
Was born at 33 weeks. Was home by 34 weeks. Weighed 4.15.
She is doing really well other than spitting up. I think it’s because she overeats. She still hasn’t gotten the cue that she is full. Most likely do the the NG tube...
@emersonboi For me it’s more calorie intake then amount of water. As long as I’m drinking throughout the day my supply doesn’t go down. If I don’t get enough calories that’s when I notice a dip
@chris_mil I’m so sorry. I miscarried alone with my 1 year old at 8 weeks pregnant. Make sure to keep your phone close. I lost a lot of blood and got very dizzy and almost passed out. Sit in the shower. And have your 2.5 year old set up with a tablet or something.
@itrustgod My cervix was dilated to 2cm at 27 weeks. I made it to 33 weeks. No hospital stay, running around with two toddlers. You never know. Some don’t go into labor for weeks some go the same day. You’re where you need to be.
@aleon My period never comes back until my kids are sleeping through the night. The same month bam. My period shows up. I’ve been breastfeeding for almost 3 years straight and always have lots of discharge.
