I know more than a few babies born in the 30-34 week time period. That really puts modern medicine in perspective for me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/amazing-story-of-micropreemie-now-20-months/page/2#post-459739 Fri, 21 Dec 2012 08:06:14 +0000 T.H.O.U. 459739@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Such an amazing story! I couldn't stop reading last night even though I had to go pack. Modern technology is so amazing! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/amazing-story-of-micropreemie-now-20-months#post-459735 Fri, 21 Dec 2012 07:46:34 +0000 mrbee 459735@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LittleGBee: I don't think she has a blog... most of the writing I could find from her is from her journalism work at the Tampa Bay Times.

This *almost* happened to my friend. She had the same complication, but she was able to keep the baby until 27 weeks in the end. Her baby was born the same day as mine. Modern medicine is absolutely amazing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/amazing-story-of-micropreemie-now-20-months#post-459616 Fri, 21 Dec 2012 00:01:35 +0000 Dapple Grey 459616@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Amazing miracle.

I'm out of Kleenex! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/amazing-story-of-micropreemie-now-20-months#post-459090 Thu, 20 Dec 2012 16:53:44 +0000 hilsy85 459090@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I read this a few days ago and was sobbing.

Our radiologist actually told us about it yesterday (good thing she waited until I was well into the third trimester). That is actually the hospital where we're delivering. All the stories about all the wonderful people there, the doctors and nurses,... I just thought it was such an amazing story and had to share!</p> <p>@rahlyrah: God, that is amazing.</p> <p>@rachiecakes: Wow! </p> <p>@mediagirl: I KNOW! "Kim, what the hell!?" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/amazing-story-of-micropreemie-now-20-months#post-459050 Thu, 20 Dec 2012 16:39:06 +0000 Adira 459050@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>And now I'm a total mess.

Glad others are crying through it and it's not just my postpartum hormones. I'd never considered all the ethical and moral decisions of micro preemies - hope those are choices I never have to make. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/amazing-story-of-micropreemie-now-20-months#post-458978 Thu, 20 Dec 2012 16:05:23 +0000 cyndistar3 458978@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My friend had twins at 22 or 23 weeks, they were 1.15 and 1.2 lbs now they are over a year old and doing great! It is amazing what the doctors can do now to help these babies survive. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/amazing-story-of-micropreemie-now-20-months#post-458955 Thu, 20 Dec 2012 15:51:32 +0000 mediagirl 458955@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just got nothing done for the past 30 minutes. Shhhh...don't tell my boss.... All I have to say is WOW.</p> <p>After 100+ days, she started breastfeeding. And it worked. And continued. OMG. </p>
