Ladies, has anyone here dealt with pneumonia in a newborn? How long were you in the hospital?

My son was born at 32 weeks and had bilateral pneumonia. He was in the hospital for a total of 3 weeks.

Tatyana Kozlova We were also born early, at 34 weeks. We also had bilateral pneumonia… We've been in the hospital since birth for a week already… I hope this nasty thing goes away quickly… Thank you for your reply 🙏

It varies for everyone. My son was born healthy, but after 5 hours he stopped breathing. On the 3rd day, his heart stopped for 3.5 minutes, followed by a month of intensive ventilation.

Born at 35.0 weeks, lungs hadn't opened. At the end of the first day, we were transferred by air ambulance to a large multidisciplinary hospital. Lungs opened, pneumonia diagnosed. 5 days on ventilator, 8 days in ICU, then transferred to surgery. If everything had been okay, we would have gone to the premature ward. Discharged on the 18th day.

My little one was born at 30 weeks. Although he cried and breathed, he had pneumonia and we stayed in the neonatal intensive care unit for 5 weeks, with 2 of those weeks spent treating his pneumonia.

Born at 35 weeks, spent a month in the NICU with extensive bilateral pneumonia.

A week in the maternity hospital, about 10 days in the first hospital, and another 10 days in the second.

7 days in NICU and 8 days in the maternity ward

dvazhdy happy mama Alena Sorry for asking, but did your son experience any setbacks?

dvazhdy happy mama Alena Thank God no

dvazhdy happy mama Alena My daughter had it too, but I don't know for how long. They said it would be nothing. I'm worried

dvazhdy happy mama Alena Everything will be okay

We had meconium aspiration due to pneumonia. We stayed 5 days in the maternity hospital, then Pavlik was poisoned for a month in intensive care at the OPC, and a month at Ivan-Matrenovskaya. But it was a severe case.

Tatyana Kozlova It also depended on the weight. We were born at 1940g and discharged at 2300g
