She has had a stressful pregnancy. She has had bleeding problems from the start but every scan has showed that baby & placenta is ok. She is now just 24 weeks and has been losing fluid since 1pm today. She says she can still feel it moving around.

I am out of my mind with worry. The baby will be too little to stand a good chance of survival.Sad

I went to see my gorgeous little nephew yesterday (and he really is very beautiful, even if I am a biased auntie!Wink) and my sister managed to get him latched on to her breast. He even took a few little sucks. He is now 4lb11oz.Smile

How's everyone doing? :)

My little nephew is doing pretty well. Smile He had his feeding tube removed today as he is feeding well on his own now, and they are going to try him without CPAP tonight. Fingers crossed he copes ok with it.

Good luck for tonight, hope it goes well for him! Thanks
