I'm so worried. Our new grandson was born by emergency C-section earlier this week, just short of 37 weeks gestation. Despite our daughter-in-law being given steroids in preparation for a likely premature birth (due to placenta previa causing a bleed), and baby being a really good weight, he had problems with his breathing. He has a small infection, and a collapsed lung, so he's now on a ventilator.
I have no experience of this, and don't know anyone I can talk to. I tell my son everything will be fine, while being far from sure myself. Does anybody have any positive stories for me? Thanks!
