Premature Births

This support group is open to anyone who has experienced an early delivery. My daughter was born at 23 weeks gestation weighing 1 pound 1 ounce at birth. We as Mothers to a premature baby, do not have many support groups that specializes in premature births. Whether you need advice, have comments on your little ones, have concerns, or just found a solution that us Moms can benefit from, this group is perfect for you! Please no disrespect. From one Proud Premie Momma to another, Welcome! 💜
