Wow! That picture of your daughter looks alot like one I have of my little girl, Scarlette. I'll have to get it posted. She was born at 25 weeks and was 1lb. 13 oz. and right at 12 inches long! We spent a total of 76 days in the NICU and I brought her home at a little over 4 lbs. -Scarlette's 19 months now - 22 lbs. and 30 inches short!  Absolutely healthy as can be and smarter than her mommy most of the time!
Little little girls are a such a blessing!

My son was born at 25 weeks and was 1lb 7oz measured 12 and 1/2 in. he will be 5 in April and weights 35 lbs. He has trouble gaining and maintaining weight so he's a lil skinny boy lol. But he is doing great.

My baby girl was born at 27+4 on Black Friday (July 13) this year, weighing 1.9lbs/ 700g. She kept getting mistaken for a 24 weeker she was so small, then she'd startle the nurses by wriggling around so much. She spent 85 days in hospital, and came home 2 days before her due date. I have no idea as to what the conversion would be, but she now weighs very close to what I did when mum brought me home from hospital, only she's been home for some 5 weeks or so now.
I'm also thrilled that through sticking at expressing constantly whilst she was in hospital, my Talia is now happily fully breastfed.

Wow I cant believe the weight of some of your preemies.

I had my daughter On December 22 2007 and I was 36 weeks and 2 days and she only weighed 4 pounds and 15 oz.
she lost 3 oz in the hospital in 2 days then gained 1 oz over night then at one week she was 5 pounds.
