| I had both babies separately, One last year and I just had my second.
Since both were born prior to 34 weeks, both were born at Queen Mary Hospital. (The private hospital won't take you if you are under 34 weeks and in labour. They don't have the neonatal facilities for babies that young. In most cases, if the baby requires medical attention, they will transfer the baby to a public hospital anyway. When we were there, a lot of the babies were private hospital transfers.)
My older son was born at 33 weeks and stayed for 12 days. My younger son was born at 30 weeks and stayed for 50 days. They say each day inside the womb is equivalent to 1 week outside the womb. Those 3 weeks my elder son had were huge in terms of lung development. But both are healthy and happy (most of the time) boys now :) |
