Hi renu, even i delivered baby girl at 32weeks.. now she is 7months 6days old.. for my baby they put in Nicu for 1week and her birth Weight is 1. 48. me and my husband concerned a lot. but now she is super cute and hyper active... don't worry god bless her...

even though I thought. .they put our baby in nicu for atleast 15 days.. bt r8 nw,situation has change.. it seems ..it will be a month.. sadly... but some time I have an doubt on hospital n doctor..

anusha.. when was I hold ur baby and she stared feed by her mouth

I mean u hold*

and pls share ur first month experience with baby in home. precousions and problems.

luckily my baby started sucking by her own after 2 weeks of her birth.. doctor said some times they don't know how to suck and even they don't have idea how to breath this is the problem with premature babies... i taken so much care for 3months i didn't allow any one to touch my baby because they are very sensitive and immunity power is less when compare to normal babies.

feed her for every 2hour even night time also.. and change her clothes every day... arrange separate bed to your baby.. check your baby weight frequently

don't worry everything will be alright

Don't worry everything will be all right soon ...my baby is also preterm .... don't allow anyone to touch ur baby.... try to avoid relatives and friends for some time ....u and ur husband handle all ..... cover ur baby fully it should feel warm put sweater cover legs with socks head with Kulla.... feed baby evey 2 hours .... even in night also .... for fours months I did not even sleep properly always I wil b awake and aware of baby .... sanitize before touching ur baby.... do u know kangaroo mother care method try it out it works out well ...... this method wil help to gain weight soon for babies

Avoid respiratory infection as their lungs are still to mature. Can also try with RSV vaccine not sure whether it's available in India. Avoid people with flu coming in contact with newborn.

thanks ..every one for information. .my baby still nicu.. but ..dure to ur replies. I am feeling more confident abt my situation. hope my son will become a healthy and happy child soon

hi Divya, what is kangaroo mother care?

kangaroo mother care is nothing .... baby should get ur warmth directly u put ur baby upside down in ur chest..... before that remove ur cloths and baby cloths wear diaper for baby ..... now place ur baby upside down and let ur baby sleep in ur wamth this helps ur baby to increase weight fast... when my baby was in Pondy jipmer nicu my doctor suggested this and I continue the same in home till he reaches 4 kg

Don't worry my son was born at 32wks and was in NICU for 1 mth and is fine now.

hey shivpriya.. pls share with me what kind of tests were perform with ur child in nicu . coz today my doc. done eye sight test. and after one week he is going to perform hearing test? all this things r so scary..

don't worry he wil b fine .... eye test ear test echo thyroid all they wil check for my baby they did all...

hey everyone.. once my child reached at 13ml. feed.. last night ..he again show intolarance for feed.. again doc. stopped his feed.. ohh god help my child

Tests done are according to baby's conditions. My son had vision and hearing test. Blood test to monitor haemoglobin and any infection. After 2wks he stopped gaining weight so they checked urine test he had urine infection. At 4wks he had skull and kidney ultrasound. He is having physiotherapy still now for muscle strength. Don't worry whatever tests doctors do its for child's good. He will be in your hands soon. Just pray to God he will be fine.
