I have a 28 week preemie shes nearly 2 now and bH she seems to nearly have caught up. One thing I did learn is that warly intervention is great. Try and find exeecises to do with her to develop muscle strength. Lots of stimulation etc. There is a lot of worry and frustration but iyH you will see her develop and fit in with her peers.

I also have a 33 week preemie he's a year old now... Thanks for the hope! Also when did she start walking?? | She really caught up to most things by the time she was a year and a half. She walked a little bit after she was a year. She is a regular second grader. She was a regular 1st grader, a regular gan goer and all of that
She actually had a problem with eating but nobody was absolutely sure if it had to do with her being preemie or not.
But BH she is really all caught up and she was all caught up a long time ago. You would never know that she was a preemie now.
The best story of a preemie I ever knew was a friend of mine's brother. He was born early, not sure how early. He weighed in at about a pound. In high school, BH, he was on the wrestling team

If you are worried, talk to your pediatrician. Dont worry so much. As one poster said, the MOST important thing to remember is that your baby is not the age s/he is but really subtract the amount of weeks that they should have still been in utero. That also makes a big difference.
And if your baby is still just a few weeks old, remember that they should even be swaddled as they really should still be utero and are lacking that secure feeling all around them (a doctor told me that) as well as kangaroo care is SOOO important to help preemies grow and develop.
