I have a premature baby, he was born at 30 weeks weighing in at 3lbs 9oz and 16 inches and was in the NICU for the first three months of his life. the scariest time of my life. He is now 11 months old and is doing great, he is 27 lbs and obvioulsly loves his food. lol my problem is that he is behind developmentally as most preemies would be, but i get all these looks and questions from people when they ask me how old he is. for example a girl that has a boy one month older than mine rudley asked me why he still army crawls and why he doesn't eat table foods yet. i know he will develop everything on his own, but i still can't help but feel like it is my fault. is this reaction normal? did i do something wrong as a mother? please help.
