Hiya, i am 15 weeks pregnant with my second after my first born was born completely unexpectedly at 23+0 weeks! For some reason i dont feel worried at all that this will happen again although i expect i will become more nervous as get closer to 23 weeks...has any of you ladies had such a premature baby and gone on to have a full term baby? i feel like a first time mum and have no idea what to expect! haha...oh and my first born is now a completely healthy toddler! what a miracle

Congratulations OP, they really are little miracles aren't they, so glad it worked out well for you. I'm currently 38+4 with DC2, DD1 was born at 27+1 due to pre eclampsia & restricted growth & is now a happy healthy 4 year old. I was absolutely fine in this pregnancy until I hit 27 weeks then I had a few nervous wobbles over reduced movements & a few high BP readings but so far it's all been fine (touch wood!) It's reassuring to know they are keeping a close eye on me. The 3rd trimester was a bit of a shock though as I'd never experienced it before, there are a few things I'm kind of glad I missed out on like the painful pressure in my bladder & needing a wee every 5 min!

Hi, how did your second pregnancy go in the end? I’ve had a 23+ 2 weeker and so scared to go through that experience again. Did you go fill term?

@Queens01 the OP might not be around or if she is she might not see this thread. You might get more success if you @ her Wink
