DS was born 4 days ago - first baby. He was 8 weeks early, but each day up until today has been doing incredibly well. He is off all his monitors, out of incubator, in an open crib, but not eating well.

He is up to an ounce and a bit every 3 hours but all through NGT - he only had half out of a bottle after sucking for a solid hour. Sad

I had really high hopes that he'd make it home soon, but the doctor came by and very dismissively said 'Nope, he's a boy. They take much longer. 2.5-4 weeks. Probably 4.' And then left Sad Sad

A family member close to me who had twins at 31 weeks (they were in hospital until near due date) said 'Get over yourself. He is doing much better than mine. We won't save a place for you at Christmas.'

AIBU to think she's a right cowbag and should be supporting me at this time? Sad
