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.
