How does being a premature baby affect cognitive development?
My daughter was 6 wks premature and meets her milestones with her real age instead of the adjusted age. My sister’s daughter was 4 months premature, a micro-premie and she meets her milestones about 9 months behind her real age, she had some set backs and she is a normal 4 year old but she has some behavioral issues, and her joints are tight, she isn’t flexible to a point she can’t make 4 like with her fingers so well… They are just normal I think but they do everything at an adjusted age.
