What is a Micropreemie?
A micropreemie or micro preemie is a baby that weighs less than 1000 grams, usually between 700-800 grams (1 3/4 pounds) and is born before 26 weeks of gestation. An average pregnancy is 40 weeks, with a weight of somewhere between 6 and 9 pounds.
Emily weighed 14.7 oz at birth or 417 grams. Pretty amazing, right? Help us help other micropreemies by donating to:
