Closer

We are getting so much closer to the finish line all the time.
I just hope every thing will go well.
Some info from stats for 2008 say neonatal and preterm death rates have decreased in the last decade.....
Death rates decrease dramatically with increasing gestational age and just under 74% of neonatal deaths and 65% of stillbirths were born preterm.
58% of babies born at 24 weeks gestation survived the neonatal period, increasing to 77% at 25 weeks gestation.
This is a marked increase compared to observations of a decade ago.
Survival at 27-28 weeks gestation was 92%.


This is reassuring although I know there are health risks for premmies, so I gotta keep breathing out and keeping my legs crossed. :-)
