7. When your baby comes (too) early

We've all heard the term 'Premmie" and we've seen the little babies in the Special Care nurseries with their naso-gastric tubes, little caps on their heads and surrounded by monitors. It's a frightening image but sometimes it always seems to happen to someone else - until it doesn't. This podcast is all about defining what prematurity is. It covers: The known reasons for why a baby comes early. The signs that your baby might be coming early. The treatment your baby would need if they are born early The current medical thinking about preventing prematurity. We also talk about what we can all do to support mums of preterm babies.
