can not type chinese here. but the normal way NICU in US do for 脑部异常 is do CT every two weeks...
It sounds like that the baby has more complication than simply being pre- term. 36wk old baby usually do well. The baby is probably hypoxic for a while before C section. The changes in MRI is probably related with hypoxia (usually occurs if baby is hypoxic longer than 2 wks). However, babies are usually very strong, they can recover some ofthe nerve damage. I have seen a lot of NICU baby recovered from initial insult. Only time can tell. Bless. Low platelets is common when baby is sick, and transfusion is very safe. Don 't worry too much about that. Most important is mother have enough rest and produce more milk for the baby .

Mom has to be strong, try to spend as much time as possible with the baby, talk to the baby and touch the baby. 36 week is full term already, my twins are born 24 weeks, and they went through a lot more worse and they are great now. Dad and mom have to support each other, think positive, life is a miracle.

if your ob said that, then he or she was wrong! lungs mature by 34 weeks, which is commonly agreed upon by the medical community. babies born after 36 weeks (or 37 weeks depending on whom you aak) are full term babies, NOT preemies.
【在 j****e 的大作中提到】 : My OB said the lung does not mature until 39 weeks, and that's why preemie : babies need to get special lung treatment.
