OK, here's something I would never have known.
Statistically in premature babies, boys have a tougher time than girls. They are not sure exactly why, may have something to do with testosterone, but this is what the data shows. I can see this around the NICU where girls much smaller than Aidan need less oxygen, get off CPAP quicker, etc.
Also, statistically white boys have a tougher time than asian and black boys. Again, no one knows why, but these are the facts.
So this makes Aidan a weak white boy, so the saying goes :( Another hurdle for Aidan.
