RBWH is known to be one of the best, if not the best hospital in the obs/gynae area in Australia. According to the RBWH foundation (see poster above): "85% of babies born preterm at RBWH now survives". Alhamdulillah, it is really “a blessing in disguise” that we are at the right place, when this incident occured. We hope our baby is in that 85% category, InsyaAllah.
Today, my wife and I went for a tour at the Special Neonatal Care Unit. This is the unit where pre-term babies are given special care and treatment until they reach full term. The baby doctor brought us around to see how premature infants are being attended. The idea was so that we know what to expect if our baby is born pre-term. We are really impressed and are amazed with the facilities that they have. It gave us the sudden realization of hope to see some more than 50 small cute babies are being given intensive treatment in the unit, some are in the incubators and some in the open cots, all healthy and well. They are really cute!
