Hello,
My cousin has just had her baby by emergency c section at 33 weeks, weighing 3.5lbs. I've had a round robin e mail from her dad (my uncle) to say the baby is in intensive care and has "some issues that are causing concern" and they are "hoping he'll pull through as he seems a fighter". It all sounds quite worrying but I don't want to bother them with questions, what are the problems likely to be..breathing I suppose? Sounds like she maybe was bleeding or something as she went in to hospital and had an ecs straightaway, but again I don't want to ask.
33 weeks and 3.5lbs is reasonably good ish (iyswim) in terms of prematurity, no?
