A member asked:
My preemie was born at 24wks 6 days, she's now 33wks gestation and doing well, dr's say she has a critical airway. does that eventually go away?

Takes time: your doctors are right, given the history and the time taken on mechanical ventilation, it will take time till your child's airways mature, just keep the follow up with the doctors and adhere to the treatment plan, good luck
