Hi, apologies as English isn't my first language.
I just had a beautiful daughter at 36+2, although by my dates, which I'm fairly certain of she was 35+3. She was 7lb born so would have been a whopper if she'd gone to 40. I think that's part of the issue as I'm thinking she should be like my 7.2 term son. We've been in hospital now for 5 days and all she does is sleep, I'm waking (struggel) her every 3 hours feeding some expressed milk and then she sleeps some more. They staff don't seem too worried, she's on antibiotics for an infection and had the light (sorry not sure of name) for jaundice and everyone tell me she ok but she doesn't seem to be getting any more awake. I know 5 days is still nothing but I just wanted to know if anyone have any experience similar to put my mind at ease or not. I'm so worries about but her, my son was born at 40w was alert and feeding by 2 days.
