I was born at 26 weeks at 1.5lb. Due in January, came in September. 25% chance of survival, and a laundry list of potential disabilities. Several operations, seizures and transfusions later, I’m in my mid-twenties and have completed a bachelors’ with honours. Having vision in only one eye is nothing in comparison to not being here. I have a soft spot for preemies and their parents, and now so appreciate what my parents went through.

I get so excited and happy when I hear of people overcoming obstacles. You are a strong young man and congratulations on your Bachelors degree with honours. My daughter was born with disabilities I too, was told she would not be able to do a lot of things. She will be 35 this year and is the love of my life. She has proven them wrong in so many areas granted it does take a lot of work. My prayers and thoughts are with you as you continue through your life goals.

My brother was born at 5 months and he was expected to die or get some sort of disability such as cerebral palsy. They said that he wouldn't be able to run or play very well if he were to survive. He is now 11 and he has no disability whatsoever and he is a fantastic soccer player.

These parents are super heroes. When we have a healthy baby we really take for granted all the things that can go a different way with our fragile bodies. The love, the care, the mental stability it takes to raise these beautiful children are true super powers and blessed ppl.

[@JessieBanana]

I understand the desperation of parents, but I don't think I could do it. I would like to have some sort of do not resuscitate agreement in plan. Having sisters with developmental disabilities and working with kids with disabilities, I know it's wide spectrum. Some kids are delayed, but live fulfilling lives, and some kids are so severely delayed they barely have self awareness. Also, when the burden to the parents and caretakers is severe it can often effect the child's quality of life as they age because the parents struggle to have their own emotional needs met. Especially if they live in a country with little to no social services.

[@michellehean4941]

+JessieBanana I agree with your intelligent insight completely! Thank you, sweet lady, for saying something difficult but true. Kudos, Jessie!

[@SophieJackson1993]

I completely agree with you. A lot of people say no matter what, life is life and you shouldn’t interfere. Either because they’re religious or they have no clue about what they’re talking about because taking care of an extremely disabled person for their entire life is not a life anyone wants to have. They don’t have much quality of life if they’re barely self aware and they have no idea how much pressure that adds onto the parents of that child. They should be allowed to terminate pregnancies if they find there’s something severely wrong with the foetus’ development, if they prove that child will be extremely disabled for its entire life. I don’t see that as cruel, I don’t see that as them being careless, selfish parents. That’s totally within their right. No one would want to be tied to someone who has little to no self awareness, who you have to take care of every day, every hour, every minute, every second of every year they’re alive. It’s not realistic to put that upon any parent and expect them just to ‘deal with it’ ‘suck it up and get on with it, they’re your responsibility.’ Sorry, but if you’re not in their shoes you have absolutely no right to decide for them. It’s their life, it’s their outcome. It’s not their fault that they would prefer to terminate that pregnancy if they can say definitively that the child won’t have any notion of the outside world in any way for all their life. My heart truly is with these parents. The difficult decisions they have to make must be heart wrenching. I don’t blame them one single bit - people that protest there should be no exceptions and that every woman should be forced to have the child no matter the circumstances need to be buried in the biggest pit you can find. They have no idea what they go through.

[@GM8101PHX]

Jessie I was born 6 weeks premature in February 1957, the best thing is that I was born at an Air Force Hospital at Elmendorf Air Force Base, I was 3 Lbs and some ounces, now I have grown to be my parents biggest child at over 6 feet. I look between my Paternal Grandfather and my Dad. Thankfully the decision was to pull out the stops to make sure I received the best care possible in 1957. Of course I think the choice was the right one, the other coin is that God wanted me to live. No one could ever be expected to make the right choices every time.

Aw, your story invokes such personal memories for me... MY firstborn son was born April 1st, 2012 - on April Fools' Day, 6 weeks early. Initially, no one was going to show up and meet me at the hospital because no one believed I was in labor 😅 that was my first experience as a NICU mom, and I have to say, I couldn't be more grateful for the circumstances. He stayed for an entire month, due to what the nurses refer to as "wimpy white boy syndrome" (because ⚪♂️ babies statistically do the worst in the NICU), but he was a full 6lbs 8oz, which made him look like the Jolly Green Giant of the place. It felt wild seeing him rooming in with other preemies (one I will NEVER forget was literally the size of a soda can 😱😭)... it was terrifying to see, but made me feel like he was lucky and we were blessed, for sure!

[@au131951]

I sure agree with this doctor who reiterates the need to know when birth is just too early for a baby to survive. So many babies are being taken C section before 30 weeks, some well before, and it will be a generation before we see the real results of so many people with severe disabilities due to premature birth. It's hard to know whether it's even a blessing for them to outlive parents - their caregivers who really love them. The thought of them in a daily existence in a home where they can't do anything for themselves is a wretched thought. Seems like more effort needs to be made for curing toxemia and extending pregnancy rather than taking out these pitiful little ones that need their normal allotment of time within the womb.

[@runningfromabear8354]

And others just don't know that they're supposed to be 'close enough' to ready. My second child was born at 36 weeks and spent months in the NICU struggling for his life and had to be resuscitated. We've been lucky that he doesn't have any learning delays or anything like that. But started having seizures at 12 years old. He's been diagnosed with epilepsy. And yes, we're confident our dates were correct. People make it sound like there's no repercussions for being born early. He's now 16 years old and has a service dog to give him a little confidence going out alone. The logic that if a 27 weeker is okay then at 36 weeker is perfectly full term is problematic and people need a wake up all.

Sadly the difference with assistance, support and funding between ACC and the public system is huge! People don’t realise that if a disability such as cystic fibrosis comes about due to a birth ‘injury’ rather then being born premature ACC assists those children and families through their whole lives. I have a friend in that situation and the resources have been great, it’s still tough though as it would be for anyone but I can’t imagine how hard it is to raise a child such as that relying on the public system.... best wishes to you all!

[@FollowingFalcorn]

I'm not sure where you are getting your information, but cystic fibrosis is NOT a birth injury and never has been. CF "is a progressive genetic birth defect that primarily affects the lungs and the digestive system. CF results when a child inherits a mutated "CF gene" from both of their parents, who must either be carriers (having only one mutated "CF gene") or have the condition themselves." So I don't know what you think the conditions are for lifelong assistance, and I don't personally know either (since I don't have any clue what country you're from), but make sure before you go around telling folks things that you're not spreading potentially harmful misinformation. People make EXTREMELY decisions ALL the time based on things they *think* they know, when often they absorbed this 'knowledge' from someone else who didn't 'know' anything about it in the first place. Don't be someone that wrongly influences a desperate family's potential decision with bad "information," the promise of non-existent resources, or a supposed list of (incorrect) criteria for accessing them.

That is NOT A PREEMIE. Weighing over six pounds at birth is not premature. The baby needs to be taken off O2 like that and take out the intubation tubes. Start bottle feeding and watch for gurd and reflux. Then let the baby go home with a parent who can feed and bathe and clothe it. Who are these people? The Munchheisens?

I was born one month early. I have traits of Austism.

Emily Wilson I was born 2 months early and have no disability or health problems, I mean I wasn’t diagnosed with anything lol

No carer would be in MY house with a top on like that.

And here unwanted babies are aborted at that period. Poor babies.

We can keep them alive, but should we? No, not if they will have disabilities. Whats the point.

[@mcgheebentle1958]

What do you mean? Are you saying that people with disabilities should not have a chance to live? Be very careful with what you, I have severe disabilities and would not be here if it weren’t for constant medical interventions that I need for the rest of my life. Oh, and I love my life, by the way! :)
