my brother was a premie. 7 1/2 weeks early and weighed 2 3/4 lbs. my mom said she delivered him on the gurney as they were wheeling her into the delivery room and she didn't even KNOW he'd been born! lucky thing a nurse was watching her like a hawk. my dad said he could put him in the palm of his hand for the first coupla months.
my bro stayed in the hospital for that long.
he's now 6'4" and weighs 235 lbs.
and healthy as a horse. never gets colds or had any of the childhood things (measles, etc) or anything.
but he does LOVE to dawdle. i think he thrives on dawdling. [img]tongue.gif[/img]
