Michelle Duggar has baby 3 months early

Re: Michelle Duggar has baby 3 months early

  • man that's early - hopefully everything ends up ok.

    and, baby Jordyn and Josie are 8 days shy of being exactly less than 1 year apart which (i'm guessing) is smallest age gap between any of their children.

  • Oh my... I really hope she's ok and pulls through. I'm sure she's a very strong little girl.
  • I hope the baby is ok. 
  • She is really little, but girls' lungs develop sooner than boys'- so a 3 month early girl is comparatively better off than a 3 month early boy.

    Yup- if I'm not mistaken, I think a girl's lungs are fully developed at 33 weeks, whereas a boy's can be 36 or later. This made me endlessly needlessly nervous about Liam, as my doc kept telling me he would be early (which he wasn't).  I was so relieved to make it past 36 weeks though!
