I'm still missing it, lol. I didnt know personally until I had a brain scan a few years ago after I had some big trouble with menstruation, they discovered I was missing a part of my pituary gland (that controls hormones and water levels). Haha I'm missing abit of my brain :laugh: its due to me being born early, thats what the doc said, and apparently my parents knew about it but they forgot to tell me :rolleyes: I wonder if I still have a hole in my heart.

Yeah passing out, thats what happened to memany times. What happened with me was, it was always very severe pain in usual place and lower back, I bled for about 9/10 days and was heavy up to 5th day, I fainted, I had depression, I had bad mood swings (the symptoms of PMS/PMT), I had excessive sweating and drool :redface: , my breasts also were out of proportion (uneven), excessive sexual desire, lethargic, low to high blood pressure which would vary depending on my cycle. These were just the moans that I said to my Doc, because I missed alot of time of school because of it, until he sent me for a brain scan, and then said I'm missing it. I was put on the pill. Go to your GP about the bad period pains.

Ditto, they told my parents I would be tiny and have some learning difficulties, but I've had excellent grades and I'm 5ft 6, which is pretty tall in my family.

Was due on November 21st, born on December 3rd.

My dad only found out my mum had been induced by chance too and sped to the hospital. I believe he managed to get there in time.

9 weeks premature, me.

Reply 77

Me and my sis were born at 31 weeks (5 mins apart), my dad would hold both of us in each arm out in front of him - with our heads in his hands

Reply 78

Me and my brother were a month premature, he was smaller than me and had to go into one of those special care baby units or whatever they're called.

Is that a serious question?
