Pregnancy after a preemie!

Hi all, I have recently found out I’m pregnant after a previous 24 weeker. I’m so nervous of having another micro preemie! Has anyone had a premature baby and gone on to have a full term baby in future pregnancies? 🤞🏼🤍

Hey!
So i had a prem at 24wks he will be 4yrs old in march.

I then fell pregnant shortly after and I was put into the prem clinic i had transvaginal scans every 2wks, at 21wks my cervix was starting to open , So I had stitch put in and then scans untill 34wks , stitch was then removed and baby came at 39wks- That being said although I had the stitch, I was told i would still at risk incase as my waters could still break ( as thats what happened with my prem) , thankfully it all went smoothly- It is scary but with the right team around you , you'll be ok x

Yea my 2nd pregnancy went full time after 1st ending at 27 weeks and 5 days. I dont know if dr. Told you are not if anything was wrong with your placenta, but mine said when I saw her after and she said that everything was fine so it was just an early birth. I think it was the full moon because a lot of preemie moms I know had kids that same weekend and all early. So unless dr said something was wrong with placenta you most likely will be fine

My first was a 28 weeker and my second came at 37 weeks both labours started of their own accord

I've got a friend who had 2 preemies around 22-24 weeks, and for what it's worth, they are both strong, healthy girls today. You would never know they were preemies.
