I was about 28 weeks the first time around. My water broke for no known reason. The hospital put me on drugs to stop my labor and help the baby's lungs develop. That worked for about a week and I went into labor. I had an emergency c-section because she was so early and breech. Brianna was 2 pounds 7 ounces at birth.
She did an amazing job. The doc's intubated her, but she pulled them out. She did have an lazy eye, which they can't say for sure was caused by the premature birth.
She is very smart, very happy, and as happy as any 16 year old can be at any given time.

I was 40 weeks and 2 days! I would have been exactly 40 because they tried to induce me on my actual due date, but it didn't work. So they induced me again 2 days later and broke my water. It finally worked!!

I was 40 weeks 3 days. I was induced though, who knows how long he would've taken to come out on his own.
