When your baby comes too early
We've all heard the term 'Premmie" and we've seen the little babies in the special care nurseries with their Naso-gastric tubes, little caps on their heads and surrounded by monitors. It's a frightening image but sometimes it always seems to happen to someone else - until it doesn't.
This podcast is all about defining what prematurity is. It covers:
• The known reasons for why a baby comes early.
• The signs that your baby might be coming early.
• The treatment your baby would need if they’re born early
• The current medical thinking about preventing prematurity.
We also talk about what we can all do to support mums of preterm babies.
