What's also scary are the kids delivered at 35 bc of PEC who go home really fast. We just had one who came to us for a day of CPAP and some feeding help, then went home DOL 5 with mom. Two days later he's in the ER because he "won't eat". He was eating like a beast with us, so... As soon as baby is settled with us mom takes her own self back to the ER for a "pounding" headache with visual changes and feeling like her pressure is high. So we sent a tenuous kid home with a mom who's still clearly really sick herself. No wonder she couldn't get him to eat, she felt like crap! Kid was wicked dehydrated and needed lights. Stupid, stupid us.
