I was only 2 weeks early, so I missed the premie cutoff by a week. I guess that's a good thing. :)

I wasn't, but I had my son 9 weeks early. He was actually the bruiser of the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, weighing in at a portly 3 lbs., 8 oz.

3 weeks early and born with yellow jaundice. Spent the first 7 days of my life in ICU. Welcome to the world.

I made up for being small when I was born though.. 6'4" and 250 now. I showed them!

hey perry, me too! i was about 3 1/2 weeks early, and i turned orange the day after i was born. i weighed about 7 pounds at birth, so i was going to be a pretty big baby if i had waited.

Heh. Yea, and it's a good thing I was born early too. I was born Aug 31, the cut off date to start school in Georgia is Sept 1. What a difference a day can make.
