Happy World Prematurity Day!!! Sometimes, you'll go through an odyssey just to clear a path for others. The NHS is allowing us to do just that by sharing our daughter Magnolia Day's extreme preemie story with pregnant people in the UK and around the world.

https://www.hippocraticpost.com/australasia/stillborn-and-preterm-statistics-for-covid-19-first-wave/ Interesting research. The research of 52 million births from 26 countries, published inĀ Nature Human Behavior, reported a 3-4 per cent reduction overall in preterm births, averting almost 50,000 preterm pregnancies during the first month of lockdown alone. But the decrease in preterm births was limited to only high-income countries including Australia. The International Perinatal Outcomes in the Pandemic (iPOP) Study, one of the largest such studies of its kind, involved 167 collaborators across 42 countries. Murdoch Childrenās Research Institute co-led the project alongsideĀ The Childrenās Hospital Research Institute of Manitoba, University of Manitoba,Ā The University of EdinburghĀ andĀ UNSW Sydney. #preemiefamily #preterm #prematurebabiesawareness #neonatolgy #neonatal #prematurity #earlybaby #earlybabies #premature #research #nicuparents #nann #NICU https://www.instagram.com/p/Cpvrxnaqzb2/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
I was born 10 weeks premature and I havenāt seen any grown up premies talk about how being premature affected them as they grew up. I had a crushing realization earlier this year that most of my extended family will never fully view me as the young adult iāve become. To most of them, iāll always be the 1 lb 5 oz āmiracle grandbabyā and Iāve been a spectator of sorts for a good chunk of my first two years on this planet. Its really weird knowing that everyone vividly remembers a specific time in your life EXCEPT for you.
We have plenty of photos, photo albums, some of the little diapers and outfits and other assorted baby things in the attic. We even have my trache from when it was removed and I received the scar that goes across my neck. All I have to remember that time in my life are the handful of surgery scars on my body. Iāve always been told that I am a fighter and had so much strength and resilience and honestly I started to get sick of hearing it. Iām 20 and I STILL hear about my strength and resilience from a time in my life that gave me surgery scars to remind me of everything Iāve gone through.
When family friends or extended family tell me how strong and resilient I am , I just want them to see me for who I am today rather than the teeny tiny baby I used to be. It got to the point where I started to invalidate my own feelings and experiences because I went through so many surgeries as a baby and spent the first seven months of my life in the NICU at Johnās Hopkins hospital in Maryland. My mental health has been rocky this year nd iāve been battling depression for the past few months. I went through so many surgeries and only had the scars as souvenirs for surgeries that gave me the chance to see, breathe, speak and have a chance at a normal life despite the extraordinary experiences that brought me into the world and got me this far.
Iāve been battling with my own mental health issues for the last 4 months and experienced suicidal thoughts on a regular basis. Iād tell myself something along the lines of āIāve been in worse situations that were life or death and Iāll get through it.ā I always felt like the strength and resilience people always brought up when I was around was a way for me to put on a brave face and keep my guard up so I can keep the image of the miracle grandbaby that was known as a fighter, an inspiration and a gift from god. It kind of felt like a publicity thing from time to time but my grandma and grandpap didnāt do it for their own egos, they did it to show that miracles can come true and bring incredible, inspiring things into the world.
Now when I see pictures of premies and super premies my heart breaks a little bit. I know what its like to grow up with so many people taking about you and people you didnāt even know were praying for you to survive. I know most people meant well but after hearing a lot of the same stuff for years, I started to feel like a sought after commodity. Honestly, its degrading, and insulting. I was born ten weeks early but that shouldnāt be the only important, defining thing about me. Iām so much more than the tiny 21oz baby that came into the world 10 weeks early in Spring 2002.
I rarely tell people about being premature because Iām 20 years old and a college student. Being referred to as the āmiracle grandbabyā lead to me putting unnecessary pressure on myself. My immediate and extended family saw me as a miracle and hearing it countless times growing up, i felt like I had something to live up to, regardless of how old I was, partially because I was my grandpapās favorite grandkid, and was often referred to as being mature for my age by family members and family friends on both sides. I feel like I grew up fast in a sense that i had the āmiracle grandbabyā association following me around from day one. I know some people will always view me as the 1lb 5oz oz miracle baby and I know I wonāt be able to change how some people perceive me, which doesnāt really bother me, but I REALLY wish more people would see me as the young adult Iāve become. Iām still treated like a child by my grammy even though Iām 20. She refuses to let go of when I would spend weekends at her house and weād go out for dinner and a movie. Itās honestly pretty frustrating and she definitely infantilizes me even though Iām a capable young adult now. I can practically hear the tone of voice sheād use when she talks to me. I know people mean well when they say Iām strong and resilient but as I get older it feels more like a backhanded compliment than anything else. I feel like Iāve always had to act stronger than I really felt and had expectations following me around.
My grammy (momās side) definitely saw posting and writing about me was a relatively easy way to get attention and she tried to make things all about her while I was clearly uncomfortable sitting on the sidelines as sheād post pictures or write about me for attention. For my 16th birthday I received a ridiculous amount of birthday cards from family friends of hers and people I didnāt even know. It didnāt bother me during the first week but it went on for almost a month. As I kept receiving cards from people I didnāt even know, I became more uncomfortable with the situation. It was clearly about her wanting to show off how many people know about my story and prayed for me as a baby and the fact that she did it knowing that using a milestone birthday to show me how she used my life story to gain sympathy and attention and so many people still wrote to me. she uses me as a topic of conversation to get praise and attention and itās obvious that she refuses to view me as the young adult i really am and focus on stuff that I have no memory of from 20 years ago. Itās insulting, degrading, and selfish.
I want to be my own person and I know being a super-premie is an important part of my life story, but it happened so long ago and I feel no need to hold on to the months I spent in and out of the hospital, but I take pride in my surgery scars. Iāve always liked my surgery scars and thought they were cool, plus theyāre a unique reminders of how far Iāve come in the last 20 years.
I really hope this post helps to generate a discussion with former premature babies or even parents of premies because I want to know what challenges other premies face and how the technology used to care for premature babies has evolved, unfortunately there isnāt a whole lot of research or reading on grown up premies so Iām curious to see if/when a discussion starts. I know premies have unique and sometimes frightening experiences early on in life but every premie babyās story is unique and I want to hear about more people that have little miracle babies like me.

November 17th is...
Baklava Day -Ā Baklavaās sweet layers of texture and flavor are created between sheets of filo pastry filled with chopped nuts and drizzled with syrup or honey. Many believe Baklava to have originated with the Turkic people in Central Asian nations. However, many countries prepare the dessert in a variety of ways. The word āBaklavaā first appeared in English in 1650.
Butter Day -Ā Butter has been used by humans for thousands of years. As recently as the first half of the last century, the butter churn was an essential tool in many kitchens.Ā Around the world, butter can be found in cuisines of every culture, and each one uses it to enhance their recipes and enrich their lives.
Educational Support Professional Day -Ā The day honors a long list of professionals who keep schools running smoothly. They include all secretaries, classroom aides, cafeteria workers, maintenance workers, bus drivers, and the others who support educators, school leadership.
Guinness World Records Day -Ā Most people are familiar with the Guinness Book of World Records. First published in 1955, an annual edition of the popular book has been published every year since. The book contains amazing human achievements as well as incredible animal feats.
Homemade Bread Day -Ā Those who make homemade bread commit to using good ingredients and investing in the time. They make it not only because they love the flavor, but because they know the people they love to do also. Homemade bread enriches the flavors of our meals and the flavors of our conversations, too.
International Happy Gose Day -Ā Instead of rhyming with rose, Gose (É”ÅzÉ) rhymes with Rosa. Gose is a fermented sour wheat beer that originated during the sixteenth century in Goslar, located in Northern Germany. In later years, Gose became more associated with the city of Leipzig. The beer became so popular that it gained exemption for the countryās purity law called Reinheitsgebot. This law stated that German beer could only contain water, barley, yeast, and hops. But Gose is also made with malted wheat and coriander. Salty water from the Goslar River was also used, giving the drink a unique salty and tart taste.
Take A Hike Day - Encourages us to get out there and hit the trails. With over 60,000 miles of trails in the National Trail System across the 50 states, there is no lack of opportunity to take a hike.Ā Besides experiencing majestic views and the great outdoors, we also exercise our bodies. Hiking not only gets our hearts pumping and our muscles moving, but being outdoors is good for our minds. Many of us spend too much time indoors behind a desk. Hiking can burn between 400-550 calories per hour.
World COPD Day -Ā Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is one of the leading causes of death for Americans. It is also the third leading cause of death in the world. Those with COPD usually have either emphysema or chronic bronchitis. This long-term lung disease affects 16 million Americans. On a global scale, 65 million people have COPD. These numbers are probably not accurate, however. This is because many people donāt even realize they have COPD.
World Prematurity Day -Ā According to the World Health Organization (WHO), 15 million babies are born preterm. This means one in 10 babies is born too early. A baby is considered premature at less than 37 weeks gestation. The number of preterm babies continues to rise. The countries with the most preterm births include India, China, Nigeria, Pakistan, Indonesia, and the United States. Premature births raise concerns because these babies face an increased chance of disability. Some of the most common disabilities and health issues include cerebral palsy, developmental delay, asthma, hearing loss, vision problems, intestinal problems, and recurrent infections.
