Two of my great grands were born very prematurely after a fight with TTTS, a trip to Baylor where the cords were separated in utero by laser surgery, and then mom had a bout of preeclampsia (I recognized the symptoms) and emergency Cesarean. 1 lb 10 oz. and one at 3lbs. 8 oz.Both are in school now and doing fine.
